Broke down in Cary? Call (919) 230-4498. A WTF Towing truck is on the way, any hour, any day.
WTF Towing is a locally owned towing company that runs Cary and the rest of the Triangle around the clock. A dead battery in the Crossroads Plaza lot, a flat on the Triangle Expressway, a car in a ditch off Green Level Church Road, a wreck on US-1 at Walnut Street — we handle it with our own trucks and our own drivers, not a call center that hands your job to whoever is cheapest that night.
You get the price before the truck rolls, and the price you’re quoted is the price you pay. Distance and vehicle type drive the number; there’s no “holiday rate” and no surprise on the invoice. We take cash and cards.
When your car makes you say WTF, you call WTF Towing.

Based in the Cary–Morrisville area
Cary isn't the edge of our territory — it's the middle of it. When you call, we tell you which truck is coming and an honest ETA, not a number designed to keep you from calling someone else.
What happens when you call
1. You call
Tell us where you are and what's going on. A cross street, a business name, or a dropped pin all work.
2. You get the price
Upfront, before the truck rolls, with a real ETA.
3. We roll
The driver calls when he's close. On a highway shoulder, stay in the vehicle; in a lot, wait somewhere safe.
4. You're moving
We hook up, secure the vehicle, and take it home, to your shop, to the dealer, or to a shop we trust.

Cary towing questions
How much does a tow cost in Cary?
It depends on the distance and the vehicle, and we quote it before we roll. There is no charge for asking.
Do you tow electric vehicles and AWD cars?
Yes — on a flatbed rollback, which is the right way to move an EV or an all-wheel-drive vehicle without damaging the drivetrain. Tell us what you’re driving when you call and the right truck comes the first time.
Can you get my car out of a parking deck?
Yes. The wheel-lift wrecker fits where a rollback can’t.
I locked my keys in the car at work. Do I need a locksmith?
Usually not. We open cars, trucks and SUVs on the spot.
Will you tow my car to a shop in Raleigh or Durham?
Yes. Cary to anywhere in the Triangle is a normal run for us, and longer trips are quoted the same way — upfront.
Do you work with my insurance roadside plan?
Call us first and we’ll tell you how to get the tow covered.

I had a great experience with this company. Casey was amazing. He was able to drive on base, get our vehicle up and drive it down to the shop! Very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend them for all towing / car services.Posted on Google![]()

My wife and I were in an single car accident late at night. Casey, the driver for WTF Towing arrived before the ETA told to us by the insurance representative handling our claim. He was friendly and helped to calm our nerves on a cold night. He offered to change the tire, but I told him I wanted the car towed to a body shop for assessment. Once he towed our car to the body shop, he texted links to the name of the body shop website, a link of a map for the body shop, and the telephone number to WTF Towing. Casey and WTF Towing managed the tow like real professionals. Thank you Casey and WTF Towing!Posted on Google![]()

It’s been a shocking day, but thankfully, one of my friends referred me to WTF Towing! Their communication was effortless, and they arrived quickly—less than 30 minutes! The pricing was very reasonable, and the owner was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. They turned my day around! It might have started as a WTF day, but I’m so glad WTF Towing was there to help.
