Right from the start, Erica answered the phone politely and clearly. She made me feel better right away. I was excited and my phone was going to die so I was speaking fast. She handled my situation perfectly and reassured me if we were cut off, someone would come check on me either way. I wouldn't be left for dead.…
Great Service
Great service! Dispatcher was great! Tech was A1.
Cool guy. Handled my Harely nicely.
Everything went smooth he was really careful with my motorcycle and came in a timely manner
They got me to the shop with my e bike.
I needed a tow and they were quick to send someone, however, as fate would have it my truck decided to start up. I called back immediately to cancel and they were very understanding.
Great as always.
I use Mer's towing on behalf of extra space storage, they have always been prompt, professional, and really go above and beyond for their customers. I highly recommend them
Had to have my bike towed they did an excellent job they handle my bike with lots of care as if it was there own
Was very good in securing motorcycle and delivering it to dealer. It was very difficult loading bike from side of expressway, however he did accomplish it.
Super friendly and helpful! Great prices, even with needing a tow after jumpstarting my motorcycle didn’t work. If you need a tow, choose these guys for sure.
Two trucks came out, one was being trained. They went above and beyond to take care of my bike, and to leave everything clean. They were incredibly polite to my wife, and the job was completed with professionalism and confidence.

Our driver and dispatcher did an excellent job.
My car needed to be transported to the Tesla Service Center in Clarkston, Michigan. Ryan showed up earlier than scheduled and waited an additional 10 minutes for me to come home to give him the key fob. Very polite and very professional. They will be my first call in the future for any vehicle towing services.
Polite, professional, arrived in a timely manner.
Called into Merl's because my bike just quit while riding. They had someone to me within an hour. The driver did a great job getting my bike on the truck and I felt that it was secured well and would be no problems going down the road. I was able to set up direct billing to my insurance as well so that made…
