From downtown towers and Beltline parkades to Altadore, Signal Hill, Evergreen and Shawnessy, Dave's Towing Services covers southwest Calgary around the clock.
Southwest Calgary includes the downtown core and Beltline, some of the city's oldest and most established neighbourhoods, and large suburbs that reach toward the foothills. That means plenty of parkades, narrow inner-city streets and busy commuter routes, and a lot of valuable vehicles in home garages. For over 30 years, Dave's Towing Services has handled everything from downtown lockouts to deep-south breakdowns.
Macleod Trail runs from downtown all the way south through the SW. Crowchild Trail and Glenmore Trail carry busy commuter traffic past Glenmore Reservoir. Stoney Trail now loops around the southwest edge of the city, and Sarcee Trail serves the west side. We also help stranded drivers on 14 Street SW, 17 Avenue SW, Bow Trail, Elbow Drive, 37 Street SW, Anderson Road, Southland Drive and Highway 8 toward Elbow Valley. See our Macleod Trail guide, Sarcee Trail guide and Bow Trail guide.
Downtown, Eau Claire, Chinatown, the Beltline, Mission and Lower Mount Royal are full of underground and multi-level parkades, loading zones and one-way streets. Low clearance can rule out some trucks, so tell us the building, entrance and level when you call. We can often handle a boost or lockout right in the parkade, or bring the vehicle out to a flatbed if it needs to go to a shop. More in our parkade towing guide.
Inner-city communities such as Altadore, Elbow Park, Britannia, Killarney and Bankview have narrow streets, back lanes and detached garages. Hillside west-side areas like Signal Hill, Aspen Woods, Cougar Ridge, West Springs and Springbank Hill can be steep and icy in winter. Further south, Evergreen, Shawnessy, Bridlewood, Somerset, Woodbine and Canyon Meadows line Macleod and Stoney Trail. Many collector and performance cars are kept in SW garages, and our exotic & classic car transport uses low-angle flatbed loading to protect them.
Downtown and the Beltline generate a steady run of parkade boosts and lockouts for office workers and condo residents. Further out, Macleod Trail and Glenmore Trail bring regular collision tows to body shops. West-side hills in Signal Hill and Cougar Ridge send cars into curbs after a freeze, which calls for gentle winching. Southwest garages hold plenty of sports and collector cars, and we move them with exotic & classic transport. Everyday breakdowns in Evergreen or Woodbine go on a flatbed, and campers parked in the deep south suburbs are handled by RV & trailer transport.
The downtown core and everything south and west of it, out to the foothills edge of the city, makes up our southwest list:
Condo towers, infills and acreage-style lots on the west edge are all included. Just tell us how to reach the vehicle.
The building address, which entrance to use, the parkade level and stall, and whether someone can let us through the garage door. Most lockouts can be handled right in the stall.
Often, yes. Parkade clearance varies, so tell us the building, entrance and level and we'll confirm the best approach. Boosts and lockouts can often be done inside the parkade.
Usually, yes. Tell us how the lane is laid out, where the car sits and whether a garage door or fence is in the way, and we'll plan the angle before we arrive.
Yes. We use low-angle flatbed loading and soft-strap tie-downs for exotic, lowered and classic vehicles.
