    In my time of need Robert absolutely helped me. Thank you so much for moving the tool box and being really careful with it. I would most definitely recommend this tow company to friends and family.

    My radiator hose came off while I was at a location shopping. I called the dealership and asked if it would be alright for me to drive to their location for hopefully a quick repair , they suggested I did not drive it and have it towed, even though they were only a few blocks away. They gave me the number to this towing company as I was trying to get the situation under control as quickly as possible and they said this was a local company they sometimes used. The tow truck driver showed up quickly and actually put my hose back on and I was able to drive a block away and refill my antifreeze at an Auto Zone location. He saved me the trouble of having to take my vehicle to the dealership and I was able to drop my passengers off and drive an hour away to get myself home safely. I don’t remember his name because I was pretty flustered by the whole situation but A big shout out to him for his prompt and courteous service. I have added them to my contacts should I ever need assistance again I will definitely call them.Technically I called for a tow and was charged for that service but he helped me out in a different way, which worked out even better! Update I just looked at my invoice and Robert Travis is listed as the driver from Tilford Towing in Belvidere Il.

    Awful. Granted it was cold and icy out. I had put my car in neutral with my handbrake on ready for the driver. He said he had it from there so I came inside. 5 minutes later he phoned to ask how the hand released. I said just press the button to release it. I went down there and he had yanked with a lot of strength in the opposite direction towards the back seat. Breaking sone plastic in the center console. His excuse was that it was frozen. It wasn’t. It engaged with ease, as always when I set it. 3 clicks. I called his manager and sent pictures. Hunter said the owner would be in the next day. Crickets. I texted again and asked what their process was. Crickets. I left a vm. Crickets. People are human and make mistakes but the lack of accountability is now causing me to file in small claims court. The drivers actions caused both wheels to be locked up and the hand brake to be damaged. My mechanic was able to tease the wheels but now I have no functioning handbrake. I highly recommend using another tow company.
