When your semi stalls on I-95 or a box truck flips near a loading dock, every second feels like an hour. Heavy-duty breakdowns stall vehicles, delay drivers, and throw off delivery schedules. They also clog traffic and eat into precious revenue. From jackknifed rigs at dawn to off-road recoveries in the pouring rain, we’ve built our operation around one goal: respond fast and tow smart. With over 80 years of combined experience, Coastal Towing Service is ready to handle Hickory’s most challenging heavy-duty situations.
Our wreckers, rotators, and recovery units are built for serious jobs that demand accuracy, not trial and error. We’ve responded to rollovers at dawn, load shifts in tight corridors, and buried axles on muddy job sites. Call in, and we'll act fast. Our dispatch routes the right unit without hesitation. No guesswork, no wasted time. We’ve earned our reputation on fast deployment and clean execution. If your truck’s in trouble, we’re here to help!
Local businesses, truckers, and freight movers can trust our services. We mean it!

From rollovers on two-lane highways to off-road pullouts in soft terrain, we’ve handled just about every heavy-duty recovery scenario Hickory has to offer. And we’re not just muscle: each job is managed by experienced operators trained to execute with discipline, not guesswork.
