Broke down in Raleigh? Call (919) 230-4498. A WTF Towing truck is on the way, any hour, any day.
We’re based just west of Raleigh in the Cary–Morrisville area, which puts us minutes from West Raleigh, NC State, the PNC Arena district, Crabtree and everything along I-40 and Wade Avenue — and a normal run from downtown, North Hills, Capital Boulevard and North Raleigh. Accident on the I-440 Beltline, dead battery in a Glenwood South parking deck, flat on Western Boulevard, car in a ditch off Tryon Road — we handle it with our own trucks and our own drivers.
When your car makes you say WTF, you call WTF Towing.

Where we work in Raleigh

Raleigh highways: what to do if you break down
On I-40, I-440 or I-540, get all the way onto the shoulder, put your hazards on, and stay in the vehicle with your seatbelt on. Don’t stand behind the car and don’t try to change a tire on the traffic side. Call us with the nearest exit number or mile marker and the direction you’re heading. Our drivers work feet from moving traffic — North Carolina’s Move Over law exists for them, so slow down and move over when you see amber lights ahead.
Based in the Cary–Morrisville area
Raleigh is a short run from our base in the Cary–Morrisville area, not a long one. When you call, you get which truck is coming and an honest ETA.
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.

Ram 5500 wrecker with a Jerr-Dan wheel-lift — quick hookups for cars and light trucks, tight parking decks, accident scenes.

Raleigh towing questions
Which parts of Raleigh do you reach fastest?
West Raleigh, including NC State, PNC Arena, Crabtree and the I-40 and Wade Avenue corridors, because WTF Towing is based just west of the city.
Can you get my car out of a downtown parking deck?
Yes. The wheel-lift wrecker fits where a flatbed can’t.
Do you tow after an accident on the Beltline?
Yes, 24/7. Get to the shoulder, stay in the vehicle, and call with the nearest exit or mile marker.
Will you tow from Raleigh to Cary, Durham or out of town?
Yes. Triangle-wide tows are quoted upfront; long-distance runs go on a rollback carrier.
