Herb's Towing

OUR SERVICES

Equipment Transport

From construction machinery and agricultural equipment to specialty vehicles and oversized loads, Herb’s Towing provides secure, efficient transport services across Canada and into the U.S. Our fleet includes flatbeds, heavy-haul units, and specialized trailers designed to handle equipment of every size and scale.

We know that downtime is costly, which is why our team focuses on timely scheduling, safe handling, and reliable delivery. Whether local or long-distance, one-time or recurring, Herb’s Towing is your trusted partner for equipment transport.

Light Towing

Whether you’re dealing with a breakdown, a flat tire, or need your vehicle relocated, Herb’s Towing makes the process simple, safe, and stress-free. From passenger cars to SUVs and small trucks, our team is trained and equipped to handle every light-duty towing need with care and professionalism.

With over three generations of experience, we’ve built a reputation for delivering vehicles safely — whether across town, across Eastern Ontario, or across the border. Our operators are fully licensed, insured, and highly trained to ensure your vehicle is transported securely and on schedule.

At Herb’s Towing, we know that being stranded is never convenient. That’s why we respond quickly, communicate clearly, and treat your vehicle as if it were our own. No matter the distance, you can trust us to provide first-class service and peace of mind from start to finish.

Heavy Lifting & Rotator Services

When it comes to precision lifting, Herb’s Towing combines power with control to tackle the toughest jobs. Our fleet includes two state-of-the-art rotators — 50-ton and 80-ton units — supported by additional heavy wreckers with lifting capacities up to 40 tons. Together, this equipment gives us the strength and versatility to handle the most demanding material-handling challenges with confidence and efficiency.

Unlike traditional cranes, our rotators are built for mobility and adaptability. Each unit is equipped with multiple winches — up to five on a single truck — allowing for complex lifts, controlled movements, and specialized material handling that other equipment simply can’t match. This makes our services ideal for operations where space is limited, such as relocating heavy machinery inside buildings or warehouses, where low boom angles provide safe, effective solutions that cranes often cannot achieve.

From lifting and positioning industrial equipment to handling oversized loads in challenging environments, our trained operators bring technical expertise and innovation to every task. At Herb’s Towing, heavy lifting isn’t just about raw power — it’s about delivering smart, safe, and reliable solutions tailored to your needs.

Accident Recovery Services

When accidents happen, professionalism makes all the difference. At Herb’s Towing, our operators are among the most highly trained in the industry, having traveled across North America to access advanced recovery programs. We continually invest in our people and the latest rigging technology, leading innovations that have since become industry standards in towing and recovery.

From passenger cars and box trucks to hazardous loads like propane tankers and fully rolled tractor-trailers, Herb’s Towing has the equipment, expertise, and crew ready to respond. Our fleet is backed by specialized support equipment — including excavators, skid steers, telehandlers, loaders, and roll-off trucks — giving us the ability not only to recover vehicles but also to remediate accident sites, clear debris, manage cargo, and restore the roadway quickly and effectively.

We understand that accidents happen, but Herb’s Towing strives to make the process as seamless and stress-free as possible. By managing every aspect of a recovery — from vehicle handling to site cleanup — we minimize costs, reduce downtime, and give our partners peace of mind that the job is done right the first time. With Herb’s on the scene, you can count on safe, efficient, and professional accident recovery every time.

Off-Road & Remote Area Recovery

When your vehicle or equipment ends up where it shouldn’t be, Herb’s Towing has the expertise and equipment to bring it back. Farmers with tractors buried in a field, excavation companies with machinery stuck hundreds of feet off the road, utility crews stranded in swamps, or motorists who followed GPS down the wrong trail — no matter the challenge, we’ve seen it and solved it.

Our off-road recovery services are built on training, experience, and a commitment to safety. Our crews are taught to calculate resistance, understand ground conditions, and work within rigging limitations to ensure every recovery is performed safely and efficiently. With specialized equipment and proven techniques, we provide solutions where others simply can’t reach.

Since 1957, one thing has never changed: if we try and can’t succeed, we don’t charge. But the truth is — in all those years, it hasn’t happened yet.
