Garth, the owner stopped out on the side of the road when he saw myself and another individual helping with a possible medical emergency. He placed his truck in harms way to ensure we didn’t get injured. He is a genuinely caring and kind person. I wholeheartedly recommend supporting him and his company.

Garth from White Knight Roadside & Towing totally exceeded my expectations. I was broke down in the right lane of M-21 in front of Amway. It was raining and Garth asked what happened and he said thank you and go seat in my truck I will help you. He made me feel so comfortable. He could tell how much anxiety in had. Especially after I had over 200 cars and trucks go by. Not one person stopped to help me. Garth made me feel comfortable after a really tense situation.
