One call covers it: tows, winch-outs, lockouts, jump starts, tires, fuel and long-distance transport across Cary and the Triangle. Call (919) 230-4498.
WTF Towing is a locally owned towing and roadside company based in the Cary–Morrisville area, running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, holidays included. We run our own trucks with our own drivers, so the job you call in is the job we do — it is never resold to a stranger.
Most calls fall into one of eight services below. Tell us what happened and where you are; we’ll tell you the price before the truck rolls, and send the right truck the first time. A dead battery gets a jump start, not a tow. An all-wheel-drive car or an EV gets a flatbed, not a wheel-lift. A car in the mud gets a winch-out, done under control.
When your car makes you say WTF, you call WTF Towing.
Where we work: Cary · Morrisville · Apex · Raleigh · Durham · Holly Springs · RDU Airport
What we do
Every service is available around the clock with an upfront price. Tap a tile for the details, or just call — we’ll sort out which one you need.
Vehicle towing
Cars, SUVs, pickups, AWD and EVs — flatbed or wheel-lift, whichever your vehicle needs. Breakdowns, accidents, shop and dealer runs anywhere in the Triangle.
Winch-outs & recovery
Mud, ditches, gravel, snow, curbs and medians. Pulled out under control, without tearing anything up.
Car lockouts
Keys locked in the car at work, at the store, at home. Open in minutes, no damage.
Jump starts
Dead battery, wherever you're parked — plus an honest answer on whether the battery is finished.
Flat tire changes
We put your spare on. No spare? We tow you to a tire shop.
Fuel delivery
Ran dry on NC-55 or I-40? We bring enough fuel to get you to a station.
Long-distance towing
Cary to Charlotte, Wilmington, the mountains or out of state, on a rollback carrier.
Medium-duty towing
Box trucks, vans, small fleet vehicles and equipment.
Where we work
Cary is the middle of our territory, not the edge of it. From our base in the Cary–Morrisville area we cover Cary, Morrisville, Apex, Holly Springs, New Hill, Research Triangle Park and RDU Airport, and we run jobs into Raleigh and Durham every day.
US-1, US-64, NC-55, NC-540, I-40, I-440, I-540 and NC-147: if you’re stuck on it, we tow off it.
Based in the Cary–Morrisville area
When you call, you get 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.

Our trucks
Ram 5500 wrecker with a Jerr-Dan wheel-lift — quick hookups for cars and light trucks, tight parking decks, accident scenes.
Two Isuzu NRR rollback carriers with 21-foot Jerr-Dan beds — flatbed transport for AWD vehicles, EVs, lowered cars, long-distance runs, and anything that shouldn’t have its wheels on the road.
Questions we get every day
How much does a tow cost?
It depends on the distance and the vehicle, and we quote it before we roll. There is no charge for asking, and no holiday rate.
Do I need a tow, or can you fix it where I am?
Tell us the symptoms. Dead batteries, flats, lockouts and empty tanks are usually handled on the spot; we send the fix, not just a hook.
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.
Are you really open 24 hours?
Yes. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, holidays included, and a person answers the phone.
Do you work with my insurance roadside plan?
Call us first and we’ll tell you how to get the service covered.
Can you tow my car out of town?
Yes. Long-distance runs to Charlotte, Wilmington, Greensboro and out of state are quoted the same upfront way.

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![]()
Warren MorrisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is 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.
