Terrible towing agency. I highly recommend avoiding them at all costs.My vehicle was towed after an accident 2 years ago. Even though we signed a release giving ownership to the insurance company Daytona Wrecker did not reach out and placed a lien on my new vehicle registration 2 years later.When trying to work this out Daytona Wrecker was extremely unhelpful and the woman answering the phone was extremely rude when we did get through. Daytona Wrecker never reached out to me or insurance company. After the insurance WAS NOTIFIED BY ME it was handled. Daytona Wrecker cost me a couple hundred additonal dollars in state fees and missed work.DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY WILLINGLY.
While vacationing in Daytona, our car was hit by a driver running a stop sign. Our car was totaled. My wife and I were transported to the hospital by ambulance leaving our car and belongings behind. We were fearful our belongings would be gone. I was greeted at the gate by MELVIN. when seeing my arm in a sling from an injury sustained in the accident, Melvin insisted that he got my belongings out of the car. After bagging my belongings, he refused to take a tip for his efforts. Job well done Daytona Wrecker, but a great job done by MELVIN. Thank you Melvin!!
My Lincoln was involved in a multi-vehicle accident. When I went to get my personal items from my car, I was met by Melvin. He was super nice and made an unpleasant situation manageable. Melvin shared with me some things I need to be aware of during the coming weeks. I thoroughly appreciated the time he spent talking with me. Daytona Wrecker is very fortunate to have him represent their company. Thank you Melvin!
I have recently gotten into car accident, the following day the lady at the front desk was very polite and caring. She assisted me in the process of getting to my car. Once I arrived I was greeted my Melvin he helped me remove my license plate and gave me some suggestions. He was professional, caring, kind and knows a lot about the business. Give this guy a raise and if you did give him another! Thank you again Melvin! I have only meet 2 associates but they seemed very happy working there. Great job!
Place was secured to the hilt.. people were nice and knowledgeable
Thank your for getting to my wife and I in a timely matter ! Thank you for your kindness and being professional. It’s not fun to break down, but when received with care it means the world !
Melvin was super helpful and pleasant. Most towing companies are nasty and rude. This was a total opposite experience. He even helped me get my stuff out of my car from the accident. To have someone you don’t know to be so helpful in a time of sadness makes him such an awesome human being. The lady at the front desk was very polite, nice, and shared her beautiful smile. So 5 stars.
I put in a service request and waited for 3 hours before being told they cancelled the order. 30 mins prior i spoke with the dispatcher lady who told me the driver was 15 minutes out from my location. She told me an email was sent to me... It was not. No phone call, nothing..... Thanks for holding me up for hours.... Get your s**t together.Kindly,Tyler M.
Horrible, they refused to let my father grab his meds, he needs his meds for his heart, he cant get his cloths nor his oxygen that he needs to breath, I will make sure thier refusel will be in the law suit!!!
I had no real dealings with this organization. I placed a phone call after hours which is 5pm. They do not allow pick up of your vehicle, between the hours of 5pm to 9am. They open up at 9am and then you are able to getting your vehicle.
What an amazing company!! I would suggest everyone using them exclusively for their towing services. ☺
They were AMAZING!!! I sat on the side of I-75 for 10 hours waiting for help!!! AAA failed me completely and Daytona Wrecker saved me from a horrible situation. Ray was so supportive and kind.
My Jeep broke down today. We are new in town and my husband was out of state working. My insurance lady said to call Daytona Towing. The nicest lady answered& helped me. She let me know it would be a while until they could tow me, so she gave me another tow place to call. I was upset, and she was so, kind to me. She knew I was nervous and scared not knowing anyone. I have forgotten her name because I was so flustered, but I wanted to give her a big shout out! She’s good people!
Our vehicle had to be towed with a lot of valuable items in it, the vehicle was safeguarded by Daytona Wrecker services. Everything was intact when we picked it up, unlike past experiences with other companies who did not save guard the vehicle. Extremely professional staff. Extremely secure facility. Highly recommended.
Donna was extremely helpful providing me information I was gathering for a friend. Without her help my search would not have been successful.
If there were more stars.to give they would receive all of them. Fast, efficient and know how to tow lowered cars. Would reccomend to anyone. Best prices in town!!!!
What ever lady answers the phone needs to learn customer service!! RUDEEE and doesn’t want to help you. Sounds like she’s just there for a paycheck and not wanting to help others out in a time of need.
Ray was incredible! The service was top notch! Thank you!
What can I say, they do what has to be done.. People working there are helpful and colorful personalities.
Great ppl love the front office lady’s they are amazing
The staff was very nice and very helpful. Knowing I had just gotten into a major car accident and the guys in the back deserve 5 stars as well because they helped so much and were very respectful.
Thrives ....made sure not to tell me they only take cash. We know why...
Top notch operation. The driver who towed me was super helpful.
Awesome work for an affordable price!! Works really fast too
Great to my service.
My experience was very pleasant. The staff were very curious. I was assisted with gathering all of my belongings. Thank you for your customer service!
Customer service is trash complete dushe bags towing cars that work for companys that work on Seabreeze and towed their car anyways. What a great place 👎 not.
Most expensive tow yard in daytona. ruse female old lady too
Just picked up a car that was towed there. Good service. They were helpful. Only reason I didnt give 5 stars is because they had me and my 2 year old daughter stand in the rain for a couple minutes after speaking with them before buzzing us thru gate. But other than that. Good place. Tow truck driver even helped me load car!
Very unfriendly customer service. Its obvious the person coming in is having a terrible day. Why act like a tyrant with zero compassion?
The front desk lady wasnt the nicest but all the guys in the back were awesome
Worst experience of my life . go ANYWHERE else
Just went to pick up my car, everyone at the office was very nice and helpful. They even offered me a cold water! Very pleased all the way around! I will definitely use them again if I need a tow!!
Tow truck showed up quick and dricer was very kind to my son who locked his keys in his car.
My wife wrecked her car it cost me $600 to get it. They charge for fuel their time the tow and charged for tarping it which it did not even have a tarp over it. She had wrecked only two blocks from their impound yard. They closed early and are closed for weekends so they make more money from you and its harder to pick up your car
They were very helpful and caring. Larry and Donna kept checking on me because I was an emotional and mental mess and helped me with the process of retrieving all my things. I just didnt like all that sand in the backyard, lol! Its good to know theres good folks that sympathize with your situation.
Just doing their job and very good people.
Police called them to get my vehicle after a wreck. They were fair. Insurance covered cost. Driver seemed to know what he was doing and was polite
Theives and cons
Awful customer service the front desk lady needs her mouth washed out with soap such a disrespectful and unprofessional woman highly recommend firing that woman she dosnt deserve a job in customer service anywhere
Too expensive. $600.00 for a short winch. Barely 20 feet. I wont call them again for anything...then too, I wont get stuck in sand again either.😂😂😂
Melvin was amazing and so extremely helpful the front office ladies on the other hand are beyond rude!!! Wouldnt even let my son come in with me. Were talking trash to my boyfriend who was standing outside with my son. I have never dealt with such horrible customer service in my life! And I work customer service. People are already having a bad day due to getting their car out of the lot and the front office ladies just make it worse!!!
Can I give a negative star?!?? SHAME SHAME SHAME on this company who towed my tenants car during this crisis! Empty pool/clubhouse parking lot - yet you felt it was ok to tow her car!? She is struggling to get by after being laid off yet you canvas neighborhoods in search of cars to tow. SHAME ON YOU. How can you sleep at night? This is OUR community - you are bringing additional hardship. This car was not blocking ANYTHINIG. Was not impeding traffic. NOTHING! Parked in a regular parking spot.
Wouldnt even let us see my brother bike and proceeded to have an attitude. My brother cant go get his bike he gonna be in the hospital for the next year cause he broke both his legs in an accident . Dont place your car or bike or other vehicles here because they suck and have no sympathy for hurting families!
The drivers will go out of their way to help out stranded motorists, but remember it is a business. That being said, their customer service is far better than the competition and their prices are generally speaking lower as well.
Ooh heck if your car has been in a wreck give Daytona Wrecker Service a call they stay on the ball
Great friendly service
Hit me with a 65 dollar piece of mail
My wife had wrecked her car They charged me.. $600 And that was only two blocks away. People were rude. Closed on weekends closes early you have difficult getting there to get things out and they charge you per day. They charge you for things that they dont do the charge me a Tarping fee and there was no tarp ever on it. Worse place ever to deal with
Great service they were very helpful in a very difficult time!
Rude people with in an hour they towed vehicle and refuse to release the vehicle to the owner of the vehicle scam artists to get your money never use this place for nothing
Got towed in Daytona beach and reasearched towing laws for the city. First off they are not open on weekends and will not meet you to retrieve your car but they are towing 24/7 on weekends. Which Florida towing laws state that if yiur open for towing that if a person requests to retrieve their car that said towing company must meet them within one hour of said request.When I made such a request from Daytona wrecker and mentioned this law to them they hung up in me and when I looked online thermoelectric hours of operations changed to closed. WTH!!!Charge you ridiculaius weird fees like cash fee admin fee etc.
They let somebody else go in my car without my permission.and then tried to deny me access to my own vehicle with my name on the registration.
The tow truck driver that helped me the day of the accident was beyond helpful. My experience with the front desk was also great. When I did go to receive my items from my car the audio cable had been taken.
Harrable company to tow your vehicle unless your there to make sure they dont wreck your property worse. They picked my car up from the Daytona Police department stop sticking my car from being stolen, & once delivered to Jon Hall Chevrolet dealer, this wrecker company did more damage to my underneath suspension than was NECESSARY. So Please dont call that company. Also read all forms carefully before signing, they have certain blocks checked when you sign it. BE CAREFUL!!!!
Its a horrible experience the lady that works there has a attitude problem. Shes very nasty and rude. She shouldnt work there.
If your gonna get impounded, Daytona Wrecker Service is the one thatll take good care of your bike! Been there, done that!
Good morning world! Rule, disrespect, mean,judging by the their color of their skin,not professional at all! And dont know how to a car! Or tractor trailer! Yall dishonored the towing history and all the fallen
Would give NEGATIVE stars if I could. They are plain and simple THIEVES. They will STEAL your car and hold it hostage. They will charge you money to retrieve stuff out of the car. They will charge you money to half ass cover it with a tarp. They would not let me accompany my kid in the office. They took advantage of a college kid and THREATENED him and would not let him have help. Thieves and thugs. NOT a reputable business at all.
Excellent customer service! Tracy and Rachael were very helpful. The best experience Ive ever had with a tow company!
RIPPING OFF VICTIMS OF CRIME! My car was stolen from Seminole County and ended up in Daytona Beach. The police department immediately called this company to the scene to tow my vehicle. Did I mention they hadnt even finished chasing the suspects or processing the vehicle? I was charged $100 an hour for a tow truck driver to sit there before the car was ready to be towed. It was $100 to tow it 3.8 miles to their lot. I wasnt even notified until 5 days later that my car had been recovered. Grand total $480 to get my car out of impound when I couldve been there in 45 minutes with key in hand to drive away had someone CALLED ME to let me know they found my car. Theres obviously some back scratching going on between the DBPD or city council and this company. Tow it quick and let it sit.
The guys on the yard were awesome, but the front off staff is extremely rude....hope I never have to deal with this place again.....the city should really check into who they choose to be apart of their payroll....just saying
Im going 3 stars only by the grace of the 2ND driver who delivered my brothers bike back home after a bad wreck. He took the time to get the bike rolling and keep it upright on his flat bed. The jackass that took it from the accident scene just slung a winch on it and dragged it off the street. The company charged $300 to get it out less than 12hrs later. Wanted another $100 to drag it outside their gates for AAA to pick up OR $75 for them to tow it. So whoever that 2ND driver was - HE EARNED YOUR 3 STARS (and is himself worth 5) otherwise Id of given ya 1 star.
Never wanted to know about this place. But as it goes my Jeep was involved in an accident. They towed it. The best team of folks I ever met..
They listen to the police scanner and take advantage of people during a time of crisis. Show up at a crash then hold your car hostage until you pay them a crazy sum of money. If you dont pay they place a lien against your tag. Happy birthday right. Theres a special place in hell for people like this. NEVER LET THEM TOUCH YOUR CAR😡😡😡😠😠😠😠😠😠😠
Nice people great staff
My sons truck broke down shortly after midnight, around 12:15 a.m. and I picked him up. We made arrangements to have it towed by a neighbor friend, who came to tow the vehicle at approximately 3-3:15 a.m. his trucks lift got jammed and wouldnt work. We were waiting for another person who does this for a living with a different REPUTABLE company, by the time he got to the location at around 4:30 a.m. my sons truck was gone. We had gone out of town assuming that the truck had been picked up by our friend. We stopped by the area where the truck had been, saw it was gone, and again assumed he had picked it up, bear in mind, the first attempt to get it was at 3-3:15, and was gone by the second attempt at 4:30. We came back into town at around 9, called our friend to thank him for retrieving the vehicle. He informed us that by the time he got there, the truck was gone. I called DBPD and asked if they had the vehicle towed, the young lady said she had NO report, but if it had been picked up, it would be Daytona Wrecker. The police officer searched to see if it had been picked up as an abandoned vehicle. She said she found the report, and it had in fact been towed by Daytona Wrecker at 4a.m. this morning. There is no one in the office to give explanation about the towing. The emergency dispatcher said they only go if they were called to do so and I told her there was no call The police Officer transferred us to this towing service. SOMEBODYS LYING!!!! Now we have to wait until Monday morning after 8 to get information about having it released, literally, it was on the side of the road for one hour!!!! I CANT WAIT TO SEE HOW MUCH THIS WILL COST ME TO GET IT OUT OF VEHICLE JAIL!! UNBELIEVABLE!!
Friendly, helpful staff after a horrendous traffic accident.
They sucks
If I could rate them negative stars I would. My brother was told by the front desk to pick a time on Saturday to come get my sons car seat out of the car or if I wanted it towed it would only be an extra fee. When on arrive I called and a very rude women told me no one would set up an appointment on Saturday because the office is locked and all the keys are in there. And after I advised her that I have both my keys to my vehicle and that I would pay what ever fee to get it towed to my house. I was rudely hung up on!
They will illegally tow your vehicle, then make you pay the 150 $ to get it back,they illegally towed my work van twice from the same complex,so they actually stole my van on 2nd tow,I should have filed charges and put someone in jail,I would highly not recommend this company, try Luckys towing instead.
Best tow company in Town 👍
Hard to find without GPS. Otherwise very helpful
Its an impound/collision lot. Not a very happy business but the nice young lady at the counter was very pleasant.
This was the biggest racket ever. I pay AAA for the Plus towing package for up to a 100 miles for all my cars but the Daytona Police would not allow me to tow to my own business to get fixed. I was on the phone immediately with WREAKER. I tried to get the car immediately but they said I was an hour late(ad says open 24 hrs). By the next morning, my bill was up to $412 for 2 days storage,their labor costs(oil dry,etc?) and they only take cash(??) so off to the bank to wire my son cash.I was calling them all day but they needed to get out to me a certified letter that added another !$90. The police must think we deserve this because we needed a tow-which we did not need!
If you get in an accident in Daytona Beach and dont call your own tow truck, the police will call Daytona Wrecker Services. Theyre the official tow company of the police department and the arrangement is an embarrassment to the city. When they tow you from an accident scene, theyll charge you ridiculous prices. My sister was charged $425 for a 3-mile tow and 2 days of storage. Any reputable towing company would charge no more than $65 for the tow, plus $20/day for storage. The most absurd part of all this is that its completely legal. The way they extort money from victims of car accidents is abhorrent and should be criminal, but they have the support of the police department and the city.
Been a member for a long time. Great bank to do business 👍
Best wrecker Operators around
Absolutely the biggest scam in the towing industry. I have been an auto dealership owner for a long time and never saw such a scam as they run. Our dealership had a customers car impounded in which we financed so they sent us a letter that the vehicle has been impounded with the following charges $100 initial hook-up, $50 labor @ scene, $25 fuel, $25 admin, $100 transfer, $65 certified letter fee, and $175 storage and we contacted them the day the letter was sent. How this company is legal under business standards today baffles me. If our dealership would charge ludicrous fees like this the state would shut us down immediately, obviously we would not. The funny part is they are the official police towing company for a certain area of Daytona. I cannot put in writing my displeasure with this company and please avoid them at all cost!
It depends on what end of the stick youre here for if Daytona Beach Police Department call them youre screwed if you need their help theyre all right theyll work with you there good white people I actually like them
Reasonable fees
Absolute worst towing company. First of all they ILLEGALLY towed my vehicle & then charged me $125 to get it out. I had no choice but to pay it because it was a rental and I had to return it the next day. Secondly, after I recieved my vehicle I noticed that they took a big chunk out of the spoiler from towing it. Third of all, the dispatcher and the employees of this company are the most disrespectful people I have come in contact with. It also looks VERY BAD that this company represents the Daytona Beach Police Department in certain areas. SCAM SCAM SCAM thats what this company is.
Good friendly and quick and Service
Young lady at front very polite and helpful.
Very rude and unprofessional they collect alot of cash and refuse to accept any other form of payment seems extremely sketchy
This is the worst tow truck company ever... There not open on Saturdays. So if your car gets towed on firday u have to wait until monday. So they charge extra. Use someone else... By the was dispatch is very rude they have no respect. They not knowledgeable at all.. BE WARNED DO NOT USE THIS TOW TRUCK COMPANY!!!!!
If u have to get towed Daytona Wrecker is the company to hire. U cant beat a police compound for security for ur vehicle.
The worse customer service and Unprofessional staff!
Place is a complete rip off they are affiliated with Daytona Beach police and they tell you is $100 but I ended up getting charged $277 $100 for intial tow $50 for putting the car on the bed?!?! Charge you $21 for a fuel charge because aparently thats not inculded with the tow, $25 to run your id to prove its yours? $20 per 15 minutes youre in theor yard to see the vehicle place is garbage and should be shut down completely rip off!
Doesn’t even deserve 1 star ! Deserves to be shut down! Do not use this company
They are completely heartless and evil people!I had to pay $125 the day after Christmas to get my car back, because my car was parked in a dead end area and not a actual parking spot. They were so rude and unprofessional. They run a illegal scam and they get away with it.
If I could give this business negative Stars it definitely deserves every bit of it they are the biggest thieving Crooks probably in the business who in their right mind tows a vehicle and closes at 5 and stays closed during the weekend so nobody could get it out charging you per day they need to be shut down and the owners need to be delt with !!!! This place is terrible
My car was in car jail and the employee took a long time to bring my car
Theyre not open on Saturdays as advertised
Poor location, they close early to make more money off of you and on top that they have no business handling the city contract for towing.
They sure helped me...
Service time doesn’t match real one
Had my car scratched down the side an dented while on their property make aure u take pictures of entire car now deny it an told me to f off an get lost have pictures an now Attorney .
Then they don’t deserve a one star because you’re so bad at doing things
Rude people
