Our Towing & Roadside Services
We handle everything from a dead battery in your driveway to a semi-truck rollover on the freeway. Here’s what we offer:
Breakdowns, accidents, mechanical failures — when your vehicle can’t move, we’ll get it where it needs to go. Our emergency towing service runs around the clock, every day of the year. We respond to calls on the Loop 202, US-60, and every residential street in between.
Not every problem needs a tow. Sometimes you just need a hand on the side of the road. We provide on-the-spot help for the most common roadside issues, getting you back behind the wheel without a trip to the shop.
Low-clearance vehicles, all-wheel drive cars, luxury vehicles, or anything that shouldn’t be dragged with two wheels on the pavement — our flatbed trucks keep all four wheels off the ground for safe, damage-free transport.
Standard cars, SUVs, and pickups make up the majority of our tows. Quick hookup, careful transport, fair pricing. We move your everyday vehicle to our shop, your mechanic, or wherever you need it.
Box trucks, commercial vehicles, RVs, and equipment that weigh more than your average sedan — our heavy-duty wreckers handle the big stuff. We regularly clear disabled commercial vehicles from Gilbert’s main corridors.
Locked your keys in the car? It happens to everyone eventually. Our technicians can get you back in without damaging your vehicle — usually in just a few minutes. No need to break a window or call a locksmith.
Arizona heat destroys car batteries faster than almost anywhere else in the country. If yours dies in a parking lot or your own garage, we’ll come out and get you started again. If the battery is completely toast, we can tow you to our shop or your preferred mechanic.
Nail in the tire? Blowout on the freeway? If you’ve got a spare, we’ll swap it out right where you are. If you don’t, we’ll tow you to a tire shop. Either way, you won’t be stuck on the shoulder for long.
Ran out of gas? No judgment — it happens. We’ll bring you enough fuel to get to the nearest station. No need to walk a mile in 115-degree heat.
After a collision, the last thing you want to worry about is how your car is getting moved. We work with law enforcement on scene, carefully recover your vehicle, and transport it to a body shop or our facility. We handle the vehicle so you can focus on yourself.
Bikes need specialized handling — wheel chocks, soft straps, and operators who know what they’re doing. We transport cruisers, sportbikes, and everything in between without a scratch.
EVs require flatbed-only transport to protect the electric drivetrain. We follow manufacturer protocols for Tesla, Rivian, and every other EV on the road. Your battery pack stays safe with us.
Ferraris, Porsches, and high-end SUVs deserve extra care. Our flatbeds use soft straps and low-angle ramps to load your vehicle without touching the paint, bumper, or undercarriage.
This is the other half of what makes Thompson’s special. Our full-service repair shop handles diagnostics, brake work, engine repair, AC service, and everything in between. When your car gets towed to our shop, we can fix the problem — not just move it somewhere else.
