First, are you alright?
If anyone is hurt, call 911 before you call us. Get out of the live lane and behind a barrier if you can do so safely. A vehicle can be replaced. This page is about the part that comes afterwards.
Why a wreck is a recovery, not a tow
A damaged car frequently cannot roll. Bent suspension, a seized wheel, a collapsed strut, or a wheel that is no longer pointing the same way as the others means dragging it is not an option, and a wheel-lift will make the damage worse. It goes on a deck, and it usually has to be winched on because it will not steer.
There is also debris, fluid on the road, and often a live lane involved. Wimberley Towing runs WreckMaster certified drivers, and on a scene with law enforcement present that training is the difference between clearing the road properly and creating a second incident.
Working with law enforcement
If police ordered the tow, the rate is regulated by the county rather than set by us: $272 starting in Hays County and $300 in Blanco County. Those are published on our towing rates page, which is more than most companies in this market will put in writing.
Where the vehicle goes
Wherever you need it, within reason: a body shop, a dealership, your insurer’s yard, or our own. Tell dispatch on the call at (512) 375-1215 so it goes to the right place the first time, because moving it twice costs you twice.
