Three generations on the hook
Penndel Towing & Recovery has worked out of the same shop at 900 W. Lincoln Hwy for over 75 years. We tow it, we recover it, we bring it home — from a flat tire on Route 1 to a locomotive off the rails.
What customers say
"Blown steer tire on the turnpike at 2 a.m. Their heavy wrecker had my tractor on the hook inside an hour. Driver knew exactly what he was doing."
"They loaded my lowered coupe on the flatbed without a scratch. Careful, quick, fair price. Only outfit I'll let touch that car."
"Excavator went off the pad into the retention pond. Their dive crew and rotator pulled it out the same day. Saved the schedule."
