Our Services


     For more than 10 years, we have developed a reputation for quick, friendly, professional, and quality service. Our reputation is our business, and thousands of people have come to trust and recommend us. Our drivers stay abreast of new skills, techniques and equipment, and utilize safety precautions to ensure that your vehicle arrives at its destination safely.
From simple lockouts to winch outs, from accident recovery to disaster recovery, we will meet your needs and exceed your expectations. That is what a quality towing company should do.

     There is an old saying that just because you own a hammer does not mean that you can build a house. This idea applies to the towing industry in a similar manner. Some towing companies will attempt to convince perspective customers that their equipment is the “latest and greatest” and that they should be chosen on that basis alone.

     The truth is that since the advent of hydraulic tow trucks and carriers in the 1980’s there has been little
advancement in the equipment used in the towing industry. Nearly all professional towing companies utilize the same types of equipment such as wheel lifts, under lifts and carriers. Certainly any towing company that intends to operate efficiently needs to update its equipment regularly due to wear and tear just as we do at SCR Towing & Recovery. However, rather than sell our services based on equipment we prefer to stress the qualifications of our personnel. Our staff have dedicated their careers to the towing industry. In addition to the decades of on the job experience our operators have received some of the best formal training available from industry leaders such as Tom Luciano, Towing & Recovery Association of America, WreckMaster, Illinois Department of Transportation, and the Illinois Tollway.  This is all in addition to our own in-house continuous education and training program.

TOW TRUCKS  (Wheel Lift Trucks)

     Our fleet of light duty tow trucks are designed to haul all types of cars and light trucks with state-of-the-art wheel lift systems.  Our fleet also includes wreckers with a 6'8" clearance good for parking garage access.

CARRIERS  (Flatbed)

     Our fleet of light and medium duty carriers are perfect for all types of vehicles, including specialty and exotic vehicles. We are also experts in equipment and machinery hauling up to 10,000 pounds.


POP-UP DOLLY WHEELS

     Pop-up dolly wheels allow light duty vehicles to be towed on a wheel lift with all four wheels off the ground. This is especially helpful for 4 wheel drive (4WD) or all wheel drive (AWD) cars and trucks that are disabled, have no keys, or just wont roll up a flatbed carrier.
