"Exceptional Service!" We had one of our customers get stuck in snow bank in the Schenectady . The response was quick, and the driver was extremely knowledgeable. The truck was clean, beautiful, and well-maintained, which is a huge plus! Driver was able to winch out the loaded truck the trailer in couple minutes. Highly recommend this service, and we will definitely be using them again in the future for any needs in that area. Monika from Big Tows Inc, Thank you for your outstanding help!
Fantastic experience and would use them anytime we need a tow. It's great to know that there are still people out there willing to help on a moments notice for any emergency. A family owned business with an amazing father and son duo. Extremely friendly, professional and caring. Highly recommended again and again.
TUHHH Where do I begin? This company was the only local business that was purely efficient enough to answer their phones (attempted to call multiple places prior to contact). From the first to the last interaction it was really eye-opening (in simpler terms). One, professional. Two, the amazing people I had the pleasure to work with reflected the status of this business. It was out of my way for sure, but given certain circumstances, I'm just beyond grateful for AC's Towing & Recovery. Shout out to Lynn and Kyle! I appreciate ya candor and business :) Peace and blessings to this company and it's families <3
We can not thank you guys enough for helping us get our vehicle towed at 2AM! You saved our vacation to Disney (we would have missed our plane) and you restored our faith in humanity! You were all professional and kind! Thank you!!!!
I just wanted to say AC’s towing is the best. My husband was on the thruway. Unfortunately he just had his brakes replaced. The lug nuts were not properly tightened on the driver side. With that being said he needed to be towed. Kyle from AC’s towing was the best with my husband’s corvette. He took very good care of my husband’s car. I would highly recommend AC’s towing. Unfortunately this review should have been done sooner because my husband had this incident on 10/21/24 but we have been delayed writing a well deserved review. Thank you Kyle for your professionalism.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Kyle moved a very large and expensive safe for me, he was extremely professional and experienced. I was stressed about getting it safely moved and he made it happen with no issues. Price was very reasonable too.
Last summer my dad and I were towing my grandfathers pontoon boat downstate from the Adirondacks. The pontoon boat trailer blew a bearing just north of exit 11 on the northway. It was a pretty scary situation on the side of the northway and not being from the area we weren’t sure which tow companies to call. Most tow companies we did call told us they could not help us because we had a large pontoon boat on a trailer. AC’s towing on the other hand was very concerned about our safety and was quick to dispatch one of their larger trucks out to help us. They helped us get the truck and trailer off the highway very quickly and saved the day. Pricing was very reasonable and the employees were very friendly.
There was a car accident in front of my store. The car was upside down. The men who came did a fantastic job getting the vehicle out of a tightspot. They made sure not to do more damage than was already there. Fantastic job guys!!!
John came thru in a big way. You guys are like superheroes. Ya saved me! Thanks!
Had a tow today because the car was stuck in a snowbank. The gentleman who towed me out was awesome and friendly. Towed me to a place to get my tire replaced. Only towing place I will go with!
Never heard of a business that don t take credit or bank cards when they have a contract with law enforcement. Nasty work the women that picked up the phone very nasty disposition money hungry at its finest.
Needed to have a car towed these guys were on the spot and true to their word. Couldn t be happier highly recommend they just made a customer for life.
I had my car delivered today I have never had better service than Ivan Shkinder did, if I need to use this service again I will definitely call this company and ask them to send me same driver
Stingy. Stingy. Oh and Stingy. Gets paid to sit and do nothing. 900 dollars for a 15-20 minute tow and maybe 2 and a half days in the lot. Btw managers its illegal to try and withhold plates. No extortion please
Hi guys please stay away from them because they charge double and very disrespect with customers and unprofessional they are very rudely
The service was excellent. Very knowledgeable. 10/16/24 : This morning the service was great.Rob was very professional and everything got done in a timely manner.thanks again
I gotta say, this guy went above and beyond for my daughter. He can teach a lot of you business owners a thing or two about how to run a business and treat your customers. Very professional and to the point, no non-sense approach, which is how business should be conducted. If he ran for president, Id vote him in. Lol.
Bobby and Garcia were awesome! Helped me with a broken leaf spring on my travel trailer. We were able to secure the axle, limp the trailer home and avoid a costly tow on the load all trailer! Thank you!
Absolute lying dirtbags. Told us our car was being towed to a garage, but actually towed it to their storage yard so they could charge us storage fees. Also, refused to return calls to Geico for our insurance to cover the tow - again, so they could keep our car there and charge storage fees. The absolute worst kind of horrible human beings.
Owner is a stand up guy. A clerical error was made and he reached out and made it right. He has pride in the business he has built from the ground up.
We had a car end up in our yard after the driver lost control. The car ended up 50 feet into the woods. The team from AC s carefully pulled the car out while missing all of our landscaping some how. They were extremely careful and professional. I highly recommend them. Most importantly, the driver is ok.
Almost exactly 90 minutes after our camping trailer blew a tire on the thruway, this company had my wife and children already moving again. They showed up, installed a new rim and new tire, all on memorial day weekend, during rush hour. Thank you ACs towing and recovery.
My wheel had fallen off on I90 going westbound a little before 10pm and needed assistance. Albert was quick to get out and help me out. He was very helpful, professional and friendly. Highly recommend.
After waiting 3 hours for another company (Greedy A$$-Interstate) to tow my car, I called ACs and they showed up when they said they were going to. Took very good care of my BMW and was a very pleasant fella. He was very pleasant, clean cut, and you could tell he actually cared about his job. So, if you ever see this, Matt, thank you! You are the best!
If I could leave 0 stars I would. This company left my son, a new driver ALONE in Albany over an hour away from home with a car that wouldnt start and only 4% battery charge on his phone. It was my sons first breakdown and poor kid was on his way down the thruway on his way home from college with his car packed with things .Worst part they charged us $243 dollars to tow him to a parking lot in a seedy part of Albany with a car that wouldnt even lock at dusk! Thank God for Capital Towing and their kindness. This place is a rip off and the owner was simply cruel. Mind you according to my son the driver asked his boss if he could take him home BUT the owner screamed at the driver for wanting to help out. Yelled at him for asking. To the driver- Im sorry you have to work for people like that, must make you feel terrible. Thank you for at least wanting to help my son.
Good experience there!!! Thank you Mr. Nieves and staff at ACs!!!
Let s start off by saying quality of service 10 out of 10 phenomenal. The owner was understanding. Make sure that I was comfortable gave me the best service start to finish, dropped off my death trap of a car nothing but kindness. I recommend them hand over fist if you ever need to get towed call them.
Great people to work with.
They are very hard to talk and communicate with. Their prices are very high.
Flat tire near Albany NY on my RV No problems Excellent, fast and courteous service Less than two hours and we were sorted
I had a scheduled time they did not meet, but the driver was top-notch and very attractive and accommodating. For that reason, I give the 5 stars.
Quick arrival, professional & polite. Did not try to push for extra service for more money. Highly recommend for any road side assistance services.
I recently used AC s Towing for a tow back home after the battery died in the middle of absolute nowhere and their service was amazing. Their customer service was extremely helpful, friendly and accommodating. The towing vehicle arrived in a timely manner given how far I was and the driver, Mark, was hilarious, professional and efficient. The prices that they charged were also extremely reasonable, especially in comparison to their competitors who basically wanted my left kidney just to take it home. Overall, I would highly, highly recommend AC s Towing for their exemplary customer service and affordability!
Very professional, fair, courteous even help put air on my tire.. made the towing experience much better..
They really care about your situation and vehicle. Reasonable rates. Top notch staff.
Super attentive, efficient and reliable, I recommend it 100 percent
Called for a Tow as my car wouldnt start. The guy who answered the phone wanted me to try acouplemthings before he rolled a truck. Nothing really working he ended up coming to pick up my RAV4 to run it to the dealership. Certainly wasnt lost on me was his attempt to save me a couple of bucks before he towed me. Would use again if I need a tow. Be wary if youre driving a 2018 RAV4 with the intermittent steering wheel lock. Also over the past year both front door locks no longer work with the key fob and now need a key.
I was stranded on the NYS Thruway Friday & needed a tow. In no time at all, Life from ACs Towing arrived. As a business owner I could not have been more impressed with his professionalism, service and ability to go above and beyond to assist me through a difficult situation. I am very grateful! Kim
Garbage people
Disrespectful company. Do not recommend them at all! No respect for one s property!
Fast and friendly
Great respectable place a great place to call again and again and always polite
Amazing service and skill! Got stuck up here on a trial case; they came to the rescue w a great referral.
Every single person from this company I came in contact with, spoke on the phone with, etc. was beyond amazing. The guys who came to the highway after my accident were kind, and comforting. They made sure I was safe before they did anything to my car, they made me a priority when I was feeling discombobulated and anxious. Vinny on the phone was very helpful in directing me on my next steps and Lynn who met me at the yard to help recover items from my car was my true angel. Thank you for all your kindness and knowledge during a very frustrating, scary, and difficult time. Excellent company to work with!
How grateful I was to have Alfred from ACS towing come and retrieve my daughter and I on new years eve day on rt 90. They showed up , had us in the nice cab of his truck and delivered us to a local mechnic. Alfred was our guardian angel that day. His knowlege of the importance of AAA( which we had) and such a wonderful human being. Thank you to companies like AC to be there to help!
I dont know what the going rate is but I broke down about a 100 yards from the garage and was charged $185. Driver said he gave me a break ?
My family owns a business in Rotterdam and we have a late model box truck (10,000lb gvwr) that has had a lot of problems lately. In the last year, ACs has came and towed our truck 3x. Once from Troy, once from Saratoga and today from Lake George. Each time they were quick to respond and very polite. The first two times Shawn helped us and today it was Rafael. Would without a doubt recommend them.
If youre worried about being a woman alone on the highway with a flat tire- keep this companys phone number. He was fast, communicative, and friendly- a perfect gentleman who made a very stressful day MUCH easier. Naturally I got the flat on a day that was already quite difficult. His easy going and friendly manner really helped put me at ease. They really HAVE earned all these positive reviews. This was the easiest flat tire I have ever had, and I would recommend his services again in a heartbeat.
My Wife was In a Motor vehicle accident and The response Time From AC`s was Great took Great care of My truck during The Insurance Companys investigation, and when we went to The Yard to Grab personal belongings They all were very Polite and Helpful Thank you AC`s Towing & Recovery
Thank you to all the awesome staff at ACs a very special person was able to come back home where she belongs. A very very story.. But a very happy ending. We are forever grateful to you all.. Good Karma always comes back around and we truly hope it comes back to you 10000 fold! Sincerely Christina and Sheldon
Absolutely Phenomenal!! My tire came right off my trailer in the middle of the Thruway and the came immediately to tow my boat and trailer to a shop to fix. Very skilled and down to earth and worked very quickly. Thank you for being there and for doing a wonderful job.
Cheapest around
DJ is very professional and very friendly.
I really recommend this tow company to anyone looking for a tow
They were there fast and on time. Professional service
This owner is very thoughtful! No matter what kind of situation you are in, he will work with you. Trust me when I say when my Nissan Altima got towed I was not happy at all, long story short he was very understanding and super compassionate towards my situation. I truly appreciated his hospitality and business. I would definitely recommend AC Towing services to anyone. -Chimere
Raphael is a hero to me. My car broke down on the Thruway as I was moving from Ohio to New York, pulling a U-Haul trailer. My travellers-aid service (Better World) contacted him, and Raphael not only towed my car the rest of the way, he personally stowed my trailer at no cost, until my friend and I could return later that day and pick it up. He went above and beyond the call of duty. I enjoyed talking with Raphael on the drive--hes a good man. I heartily recommend ACs Towing & Recovery.
I broke down at an intersection on i-890 and my subaru had broke down. ACs towing came and got me out of a dangerous situation in less than 15 minutes. They held my car and when I told them about how tight I was financially they dropped all the storage fees and just charged me for towing. Everyone was friendly so for speed and service I would definitely reccomend ACs towing to anyone. Thank you guys I appreciate it!
If youre ever stuck in a jam call ACs Towing! Theyre fast, reliable & friendly. Theres a good reason why they have so many positive reviews - theyve earned it! Oh yeah, and theyre fair. Problems on the road are enough to fray anyones nerves so having a dependable company to call is essential. Look no further: If youre stuck, youre in luck - youve got ACs number! Give em a call . Im glad I did Seriously, these guys are awesome & youll love their soundtrack at the shop!
My driver Edward was awesome,i told him my rear caliper froze and he unfroze it and sent me on my way ,didnt need a tow
My day was off to a ROUGH start , my car had to get towed and I live an hour Away I had no other way or anyone to help me and they were closed today and DJ helped me out and made sure I was able to get my car out all in the time span of 20 mins he didn t hesitate to work with me and he didn t make me wait till tomorrow to get my vehicle which I m glad because I would ve had no way to get my car if it was In the tow yard because I don t live in this area so I m BLESSED that God sent MR DJ to be a great person on this day !!!!!!! Thank you again DJ
Edwin was phenomenal. He picked me up and took care of me like we were family !!! Highly recommend Edwin and AC a Towing
I just used AC s Towing and Recovery services when my truck broke down on I90 (The Thruway) and I was promptly picked up and towed off the highway by Kyle who was very friendly and courteous during this unfortunate situation. He made everything very easy for us to understand and explained each and every option we had in order to be towed and to what location we were being towed. I would recommend this service to anyone and everyone that needs help when in need of their vehicle to be towed. I also appreciate the kind and respectful manner of Kyle who made this experience significantly less stressful. Once again, thanks and great job by AC s Towing and Recovery!
Fast and convenient but a little on the steeper end of price range in my opinion. Would recommend.
I would like to say thank you for your help it was fast professional n a wonderful experience I wish more companies would have the quality and professional service as you provide n the heart not honesty thank you again my car is home safe .
Really bad experience with this place Charge $2600 for brake chamber Greed Shame on you
Terrible experience, no one knows what they are doing there.
Blanky was my tow driver after my car broke down on the thru way... more than helpful ... Great service ... highly recommended
AC Towing responded to a truck breakdown including a trailer in tow, it was late at night in a remote area. The entire experience with them was 100% Thank you so much for the amazing service your company provided, your Driver was a delightful human being!! and the new International truck was beautiful!! Bravo AC & Crew!!!
Was broke down in my work truck 3 hours from home office. They picked up my truck and me and took me to my destination and then brought me all the way back to Rochester NY. The owner of the company was polite and the truck was clean. Thank you and may God bless you and your Family. Gardaworld
I called and they showed immediately. Almost too easy compared the the first company I called that left me waiting and extra 90mins before I cancelled them.
Amazing! My Testla Model S, ran out of electric 5 miles before the Albany charging station. When the car runs out it automatically slows the car down so you have time to pull safely on the shoulder. Once the car stopped, ACs Towing showed up within 20 minutes. However, because it is all wheel drive, and runs completely on electric, after a short period of time there is no way to put it on tow mode in order to unlock all the wheels. To make a long story short, Rafael and team, went back to their shop, and came back with the appropriate dollys to totally lift the car without forcing the locked wheels, and set the car on a dummy set of wheels. While they left, they had a team member stay with the car and added a booster to the 12 volt battery, in order to try and add enough juice for the battery to reboot the computer and possibly put on tow mode. This job took real technique and patience. If you have a Tesla, or similar type or class of car, you should be able to rest assured you are in good hands with these guys! They are a class act!!! Jay
My FIRST review ever and let me tell you if you breakdown or have anyyyyyy issues and in a emergency situation these guys are freaking awesomeSAucE THANKs BLANKY AND CREW
Not profetional treatment at all, theyre rude and do 0 effort to help the costumer...
Albert is the Man! Great service and fast!!
Amazing service from the tow all the way through the insurance battle. Staff is extremely friendly, helpful and go above and beyond for their customers.
My car shut down completely on NY Thruway & l called my insurance carrier for a tow to my repair station in Schenectady NY. Thruway authority called ACs towing. Edwin arrived within 20 mins, professionally loaded on a very clean flatbed tow truck, went directly to my repair station, unloaded it for repair & dropped me off at my front door. I couldnt t be more happy with his friendly, professional approach to his job. Thanks Edwin. You do get 5 stars from me!
My Family And I Had Gotten A Flat Tire On The Thruway And As My Fiance Was Having Trouble Lifting Our Car They Came Out Of Nowhere To Help, Didnt Charge But We Sure Did Tip The Guy. THANK YOU BLANKY!
DJ, HES GOOD PEOPLE !
The staff is nice and friendly, and they have a sense of humor. I had a good experience with them and would recommend them to everyone.
Omg this is the best towing company there is I was stranded they told me 15 minutes they were there in five minutes The guy who tow my car was a real gentleman
My car broke down on the thruway this evening. Arvin from AC s came to our rescue. Not only was he very professional, but he brought some much needed light to a bad situation. Thank you again!
If you need a professional call this service.
Awesome service, quick to respond and deliver service!! Kept in contact and let me know each step of the way what was happening. Very very affordable!! Couldnt have asked for better service and would use them again!!! Thank you so so much for your services and quick responses.
AC s Towing is by far the best tow company around! They go above and beyond to take care of their customers! You can tell they take care of their employees too! I see other tow companies around that have no respect for others on the streets! They also support their community! This is a local family owned business and we should support true local businesses! They truly go above beyond to make sure you are safe as well!
Quick service and awesome customer services. Waited no more than 15mintues to have someone pick me up and helped me get going back on the road. Rafael did a awesome job. Thank you so much for getting us out of a bind. The service definitely was worth it.
I wouldnt recommend this company, terrible experience Ive had w them and now they wont release my car to have it fixed by the company of my choosing.
Acs helped me so much they worked with me and are very good
Awesome, friendly service. Highly recommended.
Called ac for a tow today was told a great price and a time of 15 minutes and they were at my house in 15 minutes the driver Kyle I think is his name was great I will definitely call in the future when I need another tow thank you
I was driving up the thruway to pick up my mom for a doctors appointment, a tractor trailer went past me and something flew off the truck and hit my tire cause a huge hole and damaging the rim. EDWIN, showed up to help me along with Tpr Grimes from the state police. They were both so helpful in getting me back on the road safely. Thank you God for sending me two angels. Merry Christmas Edwin and Tpr Grimes, please stay safe.
Wow, what an incredible experience we had with AC Towing and Recovery after our car broke down in Albany. We were over 200 miles from home and unfamiliar with Albany area and had waited for over two hours for a different tow company that was dispatched from the state DOT. When the other tow company did not come, we called AC Towing who came quickly to get us off the thruway. We were so lucky that AC Towing came to help us who then drove us the entire way home at night with our vehicle. We could not have asked for a more seamless, generous and professional team that made us feel safe and calm the entire time. Thank you so much Raphael for helping our family! We are so thankful for them!
Post is a little late. What a wonderful experience during a not so wonderful event. Boat trailee tire blew on i90. Responded very quickly and was efficient in getting the job done. Would highly recommend this company!
Super nice people, very sharp and clean truck. Thank you, Positive
Great service fast and friendly! Flat tire after hitting a pothole coming through exit 24 tolls. Albert was very courteous and professional and he went above and beyond to help me out...Thanks!
Stellar service. Quick and convenient. Super friendly.
Fantastic service! Called on a Sunday morning and someone answered right away. They gave us a time frame of 20-25 minutes to get there and they were there in exactly 25 minutes. Very friendly and professional. Would use again and highly recommend!
Very knowledgeable and friendly. From my experience, they went above and beyond to get me repaired and back on the road safely and were reasonably priced. I highly recommend these guys and will use them again if needed!!
I strongly recommend ACs Towing and Recovery services! Words cant express the gratitude I have for the kindness shown to me after my daughter totaled her car. I am personally humbled by the compassion shown to me. Thank you again!
We had a skid fail on a piece of machinery we were hauling with our tractor trailer. They were onsite within 40 minutes of calling them with labor, jacks, and dunnage. They got our drivers shipment blocked up and helped to re-secure. Great professional service.
OMG! Perez came out super fast when I ran over motorcycle parts that someone dropped on the Northway. He was so careful, helped us get to safety, and brought my vehicle to my dealership. He was so calming and accommodating. He made a terrible night much more bearable. Thanks so much!
I broke down on the New York State ThruwayI broke down on the New York State Thruway 87 miles from home,with my daughter. Our driver Binky Pervez arrived quickly and had us get our of the rain into a big comfortable backseat. He didnt even blink when I told him where we were going. Je was polite and Professional and engaged in conversation to make the long ride seem much quicker. I was happy with his service.
Called ac towing this morning and was greeted pleasantly on the phone and given an eta for the driver. Arvin the driver did a great job. Was nervous at first but his ability, confidence and professionalism was proven. Highly recommend and trust him to do any job he shows up to. Thank you Arvin and ac towing we will call again if we have any towing needs in the future.
My car got a flat tire on thruway last night and i was rescued by an absolute Angel! The tow truck driver was very friendly, caring and very professional. He went above and beyond for us, and made us feel safe in a very scary situation. I highly recommend anyone ever needing a tow service DO NOT HESITATE to call ACs Towing & recovery! You will not be disappointed! I believe my drivers name was Mr. Perez( so very sorry if I am spelling the name wrong) and his wife make a great team! Thank you agin so much for saving us and getting us home safe!
I know sometimes when I see so many 5 star reviews I think to myself that some of them are made up, but after my encounter with AC towing, I know all of them are genuine. I had locked myself out of my company vehicle late at night and had work the next morning. AC was an angel in disguise and was not only diligent in making sure I gained access to my truck, but was also personable and humble. I offered to tip him and although he appreciated the gesture, he declined stating he would just appreciate a review and here we are. AC is wonderful and super helpful and was personable up until the very end. Thanks so much to you guys I wish you nothing but the best in your business because you all deserve it!
Fast service..the guys went the extra mile made sure we were safe! Very Professional!! Saved ACS towing to my contact for future use if we are ever have vehicle break down in Albany NY again
The owner of this company is a real stand up guy. Very good an fair business man! Thank you!
There is an angel whose name happens to be Raphael who is the man behind this business. The best example of how a small business keeps this country running I have ever, in my 52 years, encountered. This man literally brought back my faith in humanity today. After losing everything this year, I almost lost the only thing I had left, my car. Only thanks to this Archangel was I able to have the faith in humanity to walk upright again. Raphael, I am so sorry for the loss of your son. His life was not lost in vain and you and your family shall be with him again. May God bless you and yours with the love and prosperity that you deserve. An example of how all business owners should conduct themselves.Thank you. Peace to a great American.
Theyre excellent at what they do
These guys responded quickly when called to get my truck and plow picked up even sent two trucks two trucks to get job done. I want to thank the staff and will definitely recommend them to everyone as well as use them for any future needs
Blankey was the man who towed my van. He is a great guy and was super helpful. It means a lot to have nice people around when youre stressing with car troubles. This guy is the one to call!
Hey I just want to give a shout out to AC towing and Recovery, these guys are true professionals. I broke down on the highway and they came right away, I had the pleasure of meeting Rob, super nice guy, very respectful and very helpful. I recommend these guys to anyone looking to get great service and their car towed safely. Thanks you guys!
These guys are great, friendly and reasonable on prices. They work with you and get the job do be quick. Got to me quick and handle the paperwork fast.
Shoutout to Ricky from AC Towing for getting me off the Thruway entrance safely yesterday....just EXCELLENT service!!! On a cold, cold day he arrived quickly, was beyond courteous, coordinated with AAA in a flash...and reasonable, too! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Ricky!
Genuinely one of the most amazing companies out there! They are very patient, very understanding, and very accommodating! There was an issue with my Jeep and it was towed in here and the men at the front desk were very helpful and informative and even offered to tow the car back to my home for me! I ve never had a more pleasant customer service experience than with AC s Towing and Recovery! Thank you again to everyone who helped me out, you guys are all amazing!!
Very efficient
Excellent service especially Jason great place highly recommended
They were really rude to us with attitude and when I walked in they looked at me and then kept in doing there job. How rude
Saved a few dollars helped me start my vehicle Office person was friendly and helpfull as well!
I broke down on I 87 called this outfit and the dispatch said a truck would be out with in a half hour. The driver name was Rob and he was there on time got my truck all loaded up and succured on his roll off and away we went. The roll off was very clean and in very good working order Rob was a very pleasant and professional operator. I would recommend ACS to anyone.
I had serious issue with my car being able to be towed due to a mechanical issue. Others tried and failed on 3 previous attempts, so my frustration level was through the roof. AC came out and figured out a solution to get my car onto the flatbed. Driver was professional and courteous. A true pleasure to deal with!
Quick and friendly service. We were given a reasonable price for our tow before the tow truck was even sent to us. There were no hidden costs or fees (extra for mileage, gas, time, etc.) Truck arrived within estimated time frame (20 minutes). The driver, Edwin, was polite and promoted customer safety.
The tow truck driver was very polite understanding to the situation This Company is Amazing they worked with my time and budget Thanks ACs Towing
Had a great ride was quick and easy! Chris was a friendly and safe driver!! Good pricing for the distdist that I had to go! Will be calling again for any towing needs.
When it was snowing and super cold outside, the lock on my truck froze and ACs came to help out. Sadly, they could not get into my truck. But they tried for nearly an hour in the freezing cold, and they were extremely nice about it. They were kind enough to drive me home. I dont know whether I should be ashamed of my truck or proud that it was the first vehicle that they could not get into!
Lets just say they have nothing but 5-star reviews for a reason. Had a tire blowout on the Interstate night before Thanksgiving. Gentleman from AC showed up in the freezing dead of night, gave my sister and I a ride back to their place of business. He was nothing but polite and cheerful despite him having to come out on the holidays. We went over the fact that tire places are closed for the holidays, so he let me keep the car there for two nights so I wouldnt get towed again! I called two days later, expecting to make a five-hour drive to get my car from them before they closed for the weekend, but they let me know that not only was the tire replaced, and not only were they not going to charge me for the tire, but that they would also let me pick up my car on the weekend on my way back home to save me time and money! Absolutely a life-saver and I was totally unprepared for this level of kindness, professionalism, and understanding!
This company purchased a used piece of equipment as is off of us in October. They called us in late December and demanded we pay for repairs it needed. The owner was rude, ignorant, and unreasonable to me on multiple phone calls, telling me he did not want to hear what I had to say, he only wanted me to send him money. I did not owe him anything, but as an offer of goodwill, I offered him three different options to try and make him happy. None were good enough and he hung up the phone on me and refused to respond to calls or text messages. He wanted to extort me into reimbursing him $4500 for $200 worth of parts, which were his responsibility to begin with. That game might work in the new york tow business, where you overcharge and extort stranded motorists and insurance companies all day long, but I dont play that game. You talk about honesty and integrity, but you cant take ownership of your issues or be reasonable to deal with. You would rather hide behind a computer screen and talk trash and try and tear good people down. I know I run a sucessful, straightforward business, just because you didnt get your way and you are offended, doesnt mean you are right. It doesnt need to be this way, hopefully you change your mind.
Instead of charging me 500$ these guys basically charges me only half. Love the company deffenitly would recommend them to anyone who is in need of towing.
Great and friendly service. Locked out of our car in freezing cold. They were able to send someone right away and saved the day. Forever greatful.
I purchased a used car from them, they gave me a great deal, with amazing customer service. A great place with very nice people, i would highly recommend their services if youre ever in need.
My brother in laws nephew was stuck in the car in freezing cold. Shawn came to our rescue right away. Opened the car in 2 minutes and he did not charge anything!!! This will be our go to place for anything we need in future. I highly recommend this place to anyone who needs towing services. Best people with beautiful souls.
Got my car towed the other day went to get it back and everyone who works over at ACs towing are very nice, respectful, and reasonable Thank You!
We broke down on 88 east. Nick rescued us! Acs towing is top notch!!!! Thank you so much!
I was involved in a fender bender last week on the NYS Thruway & was towed by Rafael. He was very caring & professional. Highly recommend this towing service!!
If I could give this company 100 starts I would. My Jeep was parked in a parking garage with 6 6 clearance. I called more than a dozen companies and no one would come get my Jeep out. One well known company in Troy told me to call them back because the guy was still in bed and not getting up!!!! Mind you this was a 24 hour tow company and it was 800AM on Saturday. To make things worse the forecast was predicting up to 20 inches of snow on its way in a few hours. Finally by the grace of God I was connected with A and C Towing and Recovery. Raphael assured me he could help and was determined to get the job done. Once he and his assistant got to my car, he assessed the situation, and began troubleshooting. He took great care with my car and got it out of the parking garage safely and towed it to the dealer. Even though I think this whole experience took 10 years off my life I m so glad all those other tow companies did not take the job because it lead me to A and C and made the whole nightmare totally worth it knowing the job was completed with the upmost professionalism. Do yourself a huge favor and put these guys in your phone contacts. If you need a tow these are the guys to call. Class act. You just don t find customer service like this anymore. Thank you A and C Towing and Recovery!! You guys rock!!!
ACs Towing and Recovery did an excellent job towing my 34 foot 18,000 pound motor home. Arvin, the driver was very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Nice people and company to do business with.
A friend of mine had their vehicle towed and they didn t even charge her any extra storage charges very nice people would definitely recommend
Very very GREAT SERVICE!! They were fast, plolit and super helpful. So happy for they service. It was real great doing bissness. I highly recommend for everybody. They a real BIG PLUS!!!! THANKS GUYS!!!
Great service. My man Blanky was very professional.
We were traveling to Lake George For a week day, when in my car unexpectedly broke down. Calling AAA I had the pleasure of my call being routed to ACs Towing The car packed to the gills with luggagefor the week. The tow truck operator, who also happened to be the proprietor of the company , Was so accommodating and professional . He went far above and beyond in helping us. He brought us to our destinations where we were staying helped us to unload our car, then brought the car to a local service station. Not too often do you find that type of service and caring In today s hectic world. Thank you again for your service! Greg M
Truck broke down on the highway. They towed to their lot and i got it the next day. Thank you.
Pulled us out of a ditch in the snow! Very courteous and professional.
Very fast arrival. Very friendly driver and helpful. I would recommend Blanky to anyone. He is very pleasant person.
Was told to wait an hour for a tow truck thru my insurance. Waited over an hour. Called my insurance to find this company cancelled the tow. (probably not enough money in it for them as its covered on my plan so they pick and choose who to assist) No reason. Left me sitting here. Will never patronize this company.
Its never a good day when you need roadside assistance but this company made my situation a lot less stressful. My responder, Edwin, arrived in a timely manner. He was very professional and friendly. I had broken down on the thruway so I had to pay for service upfront. Rather than hand over my credit card, the company has a convenient payment portal through their website. 5 stars well earned!
These guys are fantastic. Having to have your car towed is never a happy experience but Raphael and his crew made it as stress free as possible. My car broke down in and downtown parking garage and two other companies came and went because they could not get their behemoths into the garage. AC Towing has a smaller truck just for such situations but we ended up not needing it. They figured out within a minute that we could just push the car to the exit gate quite easily and then roll it up on the flat bed. Took all of 5 mins. Other companies did not even want to bother trying to figure that out. Kudos. I highly recommend them. They were on the scene very quickly (20 mins maybe)as well while other were 30-75 mins before showing or not showing. Thank you, guys.
This company is the best, Rob treated my car like it was his. Rob went above and beyond what he need to do to get my car back home. Thank you ACs Towing & Recovery and special thanks to Rob.
By far the best service we ve ever received ! Our jaguar was out of commission and stuck in a tough parking spot with no access to the battery. He was so patient and knowledgeable and I will definitely recommend him to all foreign car owners because a lot of these other companies don t understand how to do anything when it comes to a foreign vehicle. Thank you again a thousand times !
Rafael was AMAZING ! I called two other tow company s before calling him and no one could help. He personally came out himself and got to me in 20 minutes. He was very professional and I ll recommend him to everyone I know . Thanks sooooo much !
.On Sunday afternoon I got a flat in my boat trailer tire. I m not experienced with changing tires, especially on a boat trailer with the boat on it. I called AC s towing and recovery and Blankie (I m sure I m spelling his name wrong) showed up within 15 minutes. He took the tire off and waited while we got the new tire put on the rim. While we were waiting, he even helped me with my malfunctioning power washer! What a guy! During the tire changing process, he showed and explained everything to me step-by-step so could do it myself if I needed to. He went above and beyond his job duties and I really appreciated it. I absolutely recommend this company!
I went home to visit family and friends. My rental car (mini van) caught a flat tire at night on the expressway. The driver (I am sorry. I forgot his name, but I will call him Brooklyn) was very helpful, courteous, and friendly. He towed my rental car and my family to the car rental place. He waited to make sure we were good to go with our new rental car. I would like to say thank you Brooklyn and ACs Towing and Recovery for a great experience. Outstanding customer service is hard to find today, but you guys did an awesome job! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much. They were supper helpful. Excellent service.
Words can not explain the services i received from ACs Towing & Recovery, if it was possible to give them more than 5 stars i would!!!. Normally when your car breaks down it a very sad and depressing feeling cause you know the process is going to be very costly and time consuming. However ACs Towing & Recovery made the experience totally different these guys were very professional and understanding of the situation.
I was stranded in Albany when my muffler dropped and the first place I called was ACs towing because it has really good reviews and I can see why. I spoke to Rafael who was really nice and he sent over his driver who was very professional and friendly. I was able to make it to the muffler shop just in time for them to replace a screw and I was on my way. Thank you guys so much! You made a nerve racking experience less horrible.
Great professional experience
By far the best Ive dealt with
Best service out there, responded in minutes!! And prices are GREAT!
Amazing experience, the best service i have ever recieved from a towing company. Got to my vehicle very fast from the time i called and reasonable pricing. To anyone looking for a tow make sure you call ACs!!
VERY EXCELLENT SERVICE! I want to thank ACs for their SAFETY & PROFESSIONALISM that was demonstrated to my 70yr old MOM & I after we hit a deer on I-90. We were basically Stranded, Freezing, Devastated, it was Very Late @ night & approximately 50 mi away from home. Mr.Rafael Nieves the owner & Edwin the driver took us home. GOD BLESS ACS TOWING & RECOVERY U ARE THE ANGEL GUARDIANS OF THE NYS THRUWAY
Plus 5 more. I got me vehicle stuck deep in a mud pit (the evening of anticipated massive snow storm) and when AC towing arrived it pretty much saved my day/night. Im horrible with guessing distances so unfortunately my vehicle was too far to be reached by the tow trucks cable. The guys worked together to drive my vehicle out of the mud. I am grateful for their great teamwork and dedication to customer service.
The best service ever. Rafael and the ACs towing team are awesome. Hes courteous and amazingly fast. Theyre highly recommended. This is truly a place to trust and can feel comfortable in knowing they will take care of whatever situation youre in. Thank you for everything.
They couldnt find my paperwork for 45 minutes, and I had to just stand there
Ac s towed my vehicle after an accident without telling me where they were bringing it or how much it would cost. Couldnt give me an accurate location for where it was being held until after I had shown up at their main location and called 3 times, and instead of giving me a phone number gave me a fax number so I had to call back 2 more times. After about 3 more calls I find out that the total is about $600, then told me I could just pay the 200 for towing if I get the car out today. I arrange for a company to buy my car for parts and pick it up for free, only to have acs tell me that the total would again be 600 dollars and said that they never said it would be 200. Would never recommend these people
My kid got locked out in the car, and when we called multiple towing companies for help and there was a one hour wait everywhere, but when we called ACs Towing & Recovery, Rafael and Shawn understood the situation and helped us by getting our car unlocked. And on top of it, they did not take a single penny, and Rafael mentioned that he made enough bucks for the day. I could not believe that I could meet such compassionate people these days. God bless them and will definitely recommend them for towing and recovery needs.
These guys are seriously the best. Our vehicle broke down in the middle of a Sunday night during a snowstorm. We needed to get back to NYC immediately and they towed our vehicle all the way with no objections. Highly recommend their services.
We would highly recommend the service we received from AC,s . They went above and beyond what is normally expected. If there was a ten star rating, he deserves It! Thanks Rafael!
Words cannot express our gratitude for AC Towing and their quick and friendly service. While attempting to leave the drive way, the car slid in the drifted snow and we were quickly stuck in a 3+ foot snow bank. AC came highly recommended and we can see why! Quick and friendly service and before we knew it, our car was pulled out. The owner could have quickly left but he stayed to ensure we parked in a spot on the main road where our car would not be struck while we waited for the plow truck to clear the driveway. This company clearly goes above and beyond and we are so grateful. Thank you.
Edwin and rob were so accomadating. Jay was very professional. I appreciated and enjoyed the service.
Very professional, in good communication, accurate time estimate and friendly and efficient service. Had us on the road in no time!
Reasonable price, friendly guy. Comfortable ride.
Fantastic service!
Great and professional workers great pricing and fast
Always ready to go..local professional towing company.
Very professional and courteous! Prompt and reasonable rates!
Great service and very friendly! Affordable service you can trust!
very fast ,good prices nice people highly recommended
Great experience, quick services and took great car for my car.
These guys are a class act. They came and got me when I was stuck but good and nobody else would show up. They wont let you down.
Chris was Beyond AMAZING! If I am ever in the area and need towing I will be calling AC! I RECOMMEND them one BILLION percent! Thank You Chris!
Quick and professional, car broke down said he would be there in 15 showed up in 10. Would recommend to anyone! Will definitely use for all my towing needs!
Another vehicle that was broken down in the middle of a busy intersection, with no one helping them. I quickly asked the couple if they needed someone to call a tow truck, which they did so I told them I could call for them. These people were broken down, in the the rain, when it was 37 degrees out, so I wanted to help how I could! I called these guys since they were close by, but the man on the phone talked to me like I was a inconvenience to him, and essentially said is wasn t worth coming to help them, even though it was close by, in the rare chance they said no. It seems like they aren t interested in helping others with their services. I called the next place, and they came without question.
Rafael was great!!! He got out to me quickly and was very friendly. He was nothing but professional and friendly. I will never use another company for my towing needs.
+They moved my car eventually. -Theyre not at all skilled at using a telephone. The guy could not take directions or write down an address. Also, they have a suspiciously large number of perfect reviews. Almost like the reviews were bought.
Excellent towing company. Used five towing companies to try and get my car out from behind my house Im a cramped space, only company that had any clue what they were doing. Came in and got the car out quickly and efficiently. Great guys as well lots of laughs. Highly recommend
Driver Shaun was great. Loaded minivan in 6 min and quickly delivered vehicle to address. And to top it all off had very reasonable rate especially for Thruway service.
I was in a huge jam. One of my big trucks broke down at 3am on the thruway. We were advised to call the thruway authority so they could dispatch a service. That was a bad piece of advice. I called ACs Towing at 3 in the morning and talked to Ralphie the owner. He set it up and drove over an hour to get the truck and trailer. Yes we do business together, however, 3am and service like that is above and beyond. Furthermore he charged me less then half of what the other company quoted. Thank you Ralphie! He has literally bailed me out 3 times in the last three months.
We were stuck on hwy 87 in Albany with a broken axle on our 5 th wheel. After 6 hours of trying to get towed to a shop, Raphael showed up for the second time, took tire, wheel and rotor off, followed us with his lights flashing at 20 mph to a shop. He really cared about us, and made sure we were safe. We would definitely recommend AC Towing to others. Travelers from NM.
The AC tow truck arrived at my house within 5 minutes of the scheduled time of 9 AM on Tuesday May 30th 2017. The driver was well spoken, polite and very efficient. He had my Honda Civic on his tow truck within 5 minutes and my car arrived at Mohawk Honda 15 minutes later (6.4 miles). I did not have to go out to Mohawk Honda but talked with them by phone about the car problem after the car arrived - they called me. The towing cost was $95 plus tax for a total of $102.60. I looked up the mileage on Google Maps and told the AC dispatcher who then gave me a price when I asked for one ( I dont like to get surprised). My overall experience was excellent and I would highly recommend AC Towing.
Best company to get your car tower. If you are in a tight spot. Car wouldnt work because the key fob was not being detected. We called two different companies and they didnt know how to get it out the drive way because it is a narrow driveway. This company moved the car out the drive way and to the location it need to go to get it fixed. Its been an all day things. And being stick in one place all day. It sucked but one company got it done in less than the time it took the other companies. Thank you so much. They were so friendly and patient. Guys honestly an amazing company
Excellent service.
Amazing man and service!!
Quick, easy, very friendly! Thanks for great service!!
Great experience! Very professional and prompt service along with going out of his way to ensure my vehicle was towed properly! Best experience from a tow company I ve ever had.
My car broke down while driving on the highway and as expected I was rather upset. The tow truck driver was quick, courteous, and made sure that I got off the side of the highway unharmed. Once I got to their garage, the owner and his lovely wife continued with great customer care. They handled all of my problems and made sure I was comfortable while in their waiting area. Definitely a great company ran by great people, the level of customer service superseded my expectations drastically. I would highly recommend to those that are in need of a reliable, trustworthy, tow company.
Showed up very quickly on a Sunday. Very courteous service. Delivered car to dealership for repairs, and even took care of getting the after-hours paperwork filled out for us.
Where do I start . My wife was in a car accident and was not hurt everyone there was very compassionate and ask if she was ok they cared more about her than the car. The car was totaled they took care of everything from A to Z . We had to return to get the Tags off the car they did removed them for us, as we were on a short schedule.I have owned and managed a jewelry store for over 30 years and know great customer service when i see it .We Left with a handshake and a laugh that day with a great group of people . 5 star and two thumbs up. A must to use ACs towing and recovery.
I highly recommend ACs Towing & Recovery. They rescued us on a -15 degree day on the side of the thruway. They made sure we were comfortable and safe, changed our tire at their shop and sent us on our way. The service was excellent and we felt very well taken care of. Thanks AC!
Good place
Words cant express the gratitude I have for this amazing local towing company. Its bad enough to deal with car issues and finding a reputable honest company to tow your car but AC was highly recommended by a friend so I gave them a try. The service response was very quick approx. 25mins, I was greeted with a smile by the gentleman and he was funny, polite and very helpful. After arriving to the garage where my car was towed I asked how much and he told me the price I WAS IN SHOCK!!!!!!!! I had guessed in my head about how much it would be based on prior experiences with other places but this price was much more reasonable than other companies. Thank you again AC for your help, promptness, COMPETETTIVE PRICES and most importantly a piece of mind. You guys EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS.
Rafael was great very helpful.
Great and fast service, recommend every time
On a cold and nasty day the gentleman that kaman told my vehicle could have been nicer complete professionals from start to finish I offered him $5 dollars to get a coffee and they wouldnt even take it . If you ever need help in this regard thats who I would call
I broke down on the thruway and it was brutal outside. Sat. January 6th. Truck was there in 25 min and I have a Ford Super duty with a plow and I was going to East Greenbush. Not an easy vehicle to load. Driver was slammed with calls but instead of just getting me off of the thruway, which is all he was obligated to do, he brought me all the way to East Greenbush. The truck was nice new and clean. It went as smooth as a tow could go and Im incredibly appreciative. 5 stars for sure. Rafael is a solid man. Glad to have met him.
More than trustworthy. Absolutely exemplary experience. Extraordinary effort was made to accommodate me in an outstandingly timely and personable manner. A great deal of concern was showed not only for my vehicle, but for me - that I wasn t waiting on the roadside, or left at my shop to find a ride. I could not be happier with the service and the price. I almost want to break down again just to hang out with the owner. Almost -
First and foremost I wish I could give more then 5 stars! Absolutely the best out there! I was in a 5 car pile up not even 2 weeks ago and these amazing people fixed my car like brand new. My car should have been totaled but they worked their magic. Amazing customer service! Awesome awesome people. Definitely recommending to all my family and friend. I would like to post the before and after photos so everyone can see their amazing work.
I tried a number of tow truck companies that said they couldnt tow my car out of my back yard because of how it was positioned. They didnt say they couldnt do it they completed the job they came to do. With excellent customer service
Fast service...Reasonable Pricing...We even had a few laughs during the tow. Ive used other tow companies before and always felt I got taken for a ride. Never got even a smile or handshake after..but ACs towing had compassion for my situation. I promise to always use them for any of my towing needs, and recommend them to all my friends, coworkers and church members! Kudos to you, ACs Towing!! Youve made a customer for life..
Great customer service highly trained drivers arrived before the eta they told me and price was what they said definitely trust this company with my truck.
Getting a flat and then hearing that your car needs to be towed at midnight in the rain is never an experience you want to have, but somehow, our tow truck operator made it a good experience. Showed us problems with our tires we didn t even know we had, and went the extra mile (literally) to make sure that we got to a repair shop safely, then to the hotel we were staying at. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Nice people, very quick to respond
Unfortunately, sometimes a tow truck needs a tow truck, such is life. ACs was prompt and professional. The dispatcher (Vinny) was thorough in getting all of the required information and getting a truck on the way. The driver (Arvin) clearly had experience and was efficient and pleasant. Overall an excellent experience ... thank you to our extended tow family!
These guys treated me like family. Very much appreciated. Very fair pricing and quick to get to you. In all from trailer brakes on fire to parking down the was under 2 hours. If I have any future problems in the area I will definitely be calling these guys.
Professional on the phone and during service. Quickly taking care of me while considering my safety along with taking care not to impose any damage to my vehicle. My safety was their top priority. Trucks and uniforms look amazing. They are first class. Five stars!
ACs came out when our ambulance was stuck in a local residents driveway and another company declined the call. The staff from ACs was not only dedicated to ensuring our vehicle was pulled out of the problem area but that it was done the greatest of delicacy and focus on not further damaging the vehicle. ACs collaborated with the local fire department, the homeowner and the driver of our ambulance to safely pull the ambulance out. After extensive time planning, the plan was flawlessly implemented without any challenge or further damage to the ambulance. We couldnt have asked for a better response. The Corps is quite grateful to ACs for responding and meeting our need. Peter Brodie, AEMT Captain
Great company - Arvin arrived promptly & was very professional & polite - he provided exactly the Service that was needed to help get us on our way - Thank You!
This rip off towing place ...Rates are the worst
