Our services
What we do
Built for whatever the road did to you
Emergency Towing
Swift, reliable towing available 24/7. Breakdown on the highway, no-start in a parking lot, or a car that needs to get to the shop. Our Jerr-Dan rollback carries your vehicle with all four wheels off the pavement, safe for all-wheel-drive, lowered and classic vehicles alike.
Vehicle Recovery
Professional recovery to get you back on the road. Rollovers, ditches, embankments and accident scenes. We right it, winch it clear, load it and get it where it needs to go.
Winching & Mud Recovery
Skilled winching to free your vehicle from challenging situations. Soft shoulders, muddy driveways, wooded trails and flooded lots. Cars, trucks, RVs and equipment. We explain each step and the risks before we pull.
Roadside Assistance
Flat tires, dead batteries and the small failures that stop a trip. We change the tire, jump the battery and get you moving on the spot whenever we can. If it can't be fixed roadside, the flatbed is already there.
Lockout Service
Locked your keys in the car? We get you back in without damage to the door, the glass or the paint, day or night.
Classic & Equipment Transport
Scheduled hauling for vehicles that can't or shouldn't be driven: classic Mustangs and pickups, project cars, tractors and small equipment. Strapped by the wheels on an aluminum deck and delivered to the shop, the show or the new owner.
What to expect
From your call
to your driveway
Call or text
Tell us where you are, what you're driving and what happened. A pin drop or a cross street is enough.
Price & ETA up front
You get a quote and an honest arrival time before we dispatch. No surprises on the invoice.
We secure the vehicle
We explain what we're about to do, then load or recover it carefully. Wheel straps, not frame hooks.
Delivered where you say
Home, your mechanic, the body shop or the dealership. You ride along when there's room in the cab.
Service area
Fuquay-Varina and 60 miles in every direction

Owner-operated
More than a tow.
Peace of mind.
Capital Towing & Recovery is owner-operated. You call Derrick, and Derrick drives the truck. The person who answers your call is the person who hooks up your vehicle, which is why every review on this page mentions him by name.
He explains what he's doing and why, quotes a fair price, and shows up on Sunday afternoons and early mornings when other companies won't.

A Google review is the best way to help the next stranded driver find us.
Pricing
The price you hear on the phone is the price you pay
Every job is quoted before the truck rolls. Four things set the number:
- Distance. A hook-up fee plus mileage to the drop-off.
- Vehicle. A sedan costs less to move than a lifted truck or an RV.
- Recovery conditions. Winching, rollovers and off-road work take more time and equipment.
- Time of day. After-hours and holiday calls carry a modest surcharge, stated up front.
Insurance & motor clubs
Have roadside coverage? Call us first.
Many insurance roadside plans and motor club memberships reimburse a tow you pay for directly, and calling us straight is usually faster than waiting on a dispatch network.
You get an itemized receipt with every job for your claim. Tell us who your provider is when you call and we'll let you know how billing works for your plan.

Do you offer 24/7 towing services?+
Yes. Capital Towing & Recovery provides 24/7 emergency towing to assist you anytime, including nights, weekends and holidays. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, but dispatch never closes.
What areas do you serve?+
Fuquay-Varina and every community within about 60 miles, which covers Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Holly Springs, Garner, Angier, Lillington, Sanford, Clayton and Durham. Longer tows are available by quote.
How do I reach you in an emergency?+
Call or text (919) 720-0757. If you're on a highway, pull as far onto the shoulder as you safely can, turn on your hazards and stay in the vehicle with your seatbelt on until we arrive.
How long until you arrive?+
It depends on where you are and where the truck is. We give you a real ETA when you call rather than a guess, and we'll text if anything changes on the way.
Flatbed or wheel-lift?+
Flatbed. Your vehicle rides on the deck with all four wheels off the ground, which is the safest way to move all-wheel-drive, low-clearance and collector vehicles.
Can I ride with my vehicle?+
In most cases, yes. Let us know how many people are with you when you call so we can plan for it.
Do you handle RVs, trailers and equipment?+
We winch out stuck RVs and transport tractors and small equipment regularly. Tell us the make, size and situation and we'll confirm what we can do on the first call.
