We got a wonderful review from a lady whose motorcycle broke down and needed to be towed to Kelowna! We just wanted to take a moment to say we love getting reviews whether good or bad. This is the only way we can improve, or, in this case, we get to know we impacted a customers life for the better. Thank you Joanne.

" Good Morning

I would just like to take the time to thank ya’ll at Western Towing for the outstanding help I received when my motorcycle broke down while on a trip to Nelson.

I needed the bike towed to the dealership/repair shop in Kelowna and Cody was fantastic — he kindly arranged a scheduled pickup time which made this stressful situation much easier. Thank you Cody for your flexibility. Truly appreciated!!

Also, a huge thank-you to Jordan, the tow truck driver. He carefully loaded and secured my bike onto the flatbed and drove with real care and professionalism to get me (and my bike) safely to Kelowna.

Both Cody and Jordan went above and beyond in a tough moment. Western towing is very friendly, reliable and efficient. Highly recommended!!

Kind regards,

Joanne "

The support from this community is outstanding, and we are honored to contribute to such a great organization. Tanner Scanlon was once the swim coach for the younger kids, which makes this especially meaningful. This is truly amazing!
