A recovery is not the same as a tow. When a vehicle leaves the road — into a ditch on I-35W, a median on I-694, or a snowbank off Highway 36 — it has to be pulled back to firm ground safely before it can be transported. That's winching and recovery work, and it's what we're built for, day or night.

What to do while you wait

  1. Get safe

    If traffic is moving, stay buckled inside with hazards on. Call 911 for any injury or a blocked lane.

  2. Call recovery with your location

    Nearest exit or mile marker, direction of travel, vehicle make and color, and whether you're in a ditch, median or snowbank.

  3. Don't spin the tires

    It digs you in deeper and can damage the drivetrain — let the winch do the work.

  4. We recover & document

    We pull the vehicle out safely and provide the paperwork your insurer needs.

Frequently asked questions

What is a winch-out vs. a tow?

A winch-out is a recovery — pulling a stuck vehicle back to firm ground. It uses different equipment and time than a standard tow and is usually quoted separately.

Do I need to call the police after an accident?

Call 911 for any injury or a blocked lane. Minnesota generally requires a report for significant property damage. We coordinate with law enforcement on scene.

Who pays for accident recovery?

Usually your insurance claim or roadside plan — we provide the documentation. See who pays after a crash.
