Moving a vehicle further than across town — to a specialist shop, a new address, or another state. Quoted before we load, not after we arrive.
Sometimes the vehicle has to go somewhere specific and that somewhere is not nearby. A dealership that handles your marque. A specialist who is the only person in the region willing to touch a particular engine. A classic that is being sold and needs to reach the buyer. A move, and the second car is not roadworthy enough to drive.
These are planned jobs rather than emergencies, which means we can quote them properly and schedule them at a time that works.
We quote a flat rate for the job before it starts. You give us the pickup point, the destination, and the vehicle — make, model, whether it runs, whether it rolls, whether it steers — and we give you a number.
That last part matters more than people expect. A vehicle that rolls and steers loads easily. One with a seized transmission, locked brakes or damaged wheels needs different equipment and more time. Tell us the truth on the phone and the quote will hold.
Everything gets an itemized bill. Missouri law requires it under RSMo § 304.154, and on a long-distance job it is doubly worth having — particularly if an insurer, a buyer or a seller is going to see it.
The common destinations are the obvious ones: across the St. Louis metro, down I-44 toward Rolla and Springfield, up I-70 toward Columbia and Kansas City, north on Highway 61 toward Hannibal, and across the river into Illinois.
We start from St. Charles, so a pickup anywhere in the county — Wentzville, Augusta, New Melle — does not begin with an hour of getting to you.
Common with European marques and older diesels. One trip beats three.
We move it to the buyer with paperwork you can both point at.
Plan it in advance and it costs less than doing it in a hurry.
Age, insurance, or originality. Towing is the cautious option and usually the right one.
Tell us the facility and we will handle the logistics.
Routine work. Give us the addresses and we will quote it.
On a long haul the quote is the service. A company that gives you a low number and then discovers extras once the vehicle is on the truck has made your problem worse. We quote the job, in writing, before anything gets loaded.
We are based at 1890 1st Capitol Dr. #553 in St. Charles and we hold the St. Charles County towing license, which is approved by the County Chief of Police and renewed every year. That is not a formality — it means the county knows who we are, and it is a meaningful difference from an out-of-county operator who happened to answer the phone.
Long Distance Towing calls often turn into Emergency Towing, Specialized Towing and Motorcycle Transport as well. One truck, one call, one bill. See everything we do, the towns we cover, or our highway response areas.
Tell us the two addresses and the vehicle, and we will quote the whole job.
