What customers said about local hauling
412 Logistics Towing & RecoveryExcellent Services And Communication With The Company And Personal, Will Recommend To Others To Use Their Services.
McGann & Chester Towing and Heavy…Excellent service and experts at the wheel. Towed a whole school bus out to the sticks from Pittsburgh, and parked where I needed it, even in a difficult spot. They weren't my closest option, but gave me the best price and the best customer service.
412 Logistics Towing & RecoveryCalled the other day in need of a fast turnaround getting a 10,000 lb fork lift from one shop to the other. They were quick to hop to work and my machine made it there in just a few hours from the first phone call. Easy to work with, nice guy working the rig. Will definitely be using the guys at 412 for my transport needs.
412 Logistics Towing & RecoveryWas very happy with the service and results on my recent tow of my antique convertible. Awesome job paying close attention to details on the rear exhaust system and tailpipes. GREAT Job. Thank you Pat.
412 Logistics Towing & RecoveryThis is a great tow service Patrick is amazing. Price friendly and on time I would highly recommend recommend this company to anyone. I will always call him believe me he is the best option.
412 Logistics Towing & RecoveryNeeded a tow from the airport and Pat was a lifesaver. Timely arrival and well priced. Communication was also easier than expected as we used messaging after the initial call making it so much easier to relay coordinates for pickup and delivery. He also kept me updated on his ETA. Highly recommended if you find yourself in need of a tow!
