Common Questions
Can you reach me at Carlsbad Caverns?
Yes. Partners cover US-62/180 out to Whites City and the park road. Share your pin; the truck that quotes will show its arrival time.
Do you tow on US-285 toward Texas?
Yes. Partners cover US-285 north and south of Carlsbad. Note your direction and nearest mile marker so the driver finds you quickly.
Can you tow work trucks and heavier vehicles?
Yes. Choose your vehicle type when you request; heavy-duty partners cover the oilfield around Carlsbad. You'll see each company's price before you confirm.
My tire blew on a caliche road. Can someone come out?
Yes. Choose tire change or tow, and share an exact pin, since lease roads rarely have addresses. If you're stuck off the road, choose winch-out.
Are you available at night around Carlsbad?
Yes. Oil country runs around the clock, and so does SelfTow dispatch, including nights, weekends and holidays.

Each tow company near Carlsbad sets its own rates, so the price depends on your vehicle, the distance and who's available. SelfTow shows every company's all-in price side by side before you choose, so there are no surprises when the driver arrives.
Can I request my own tow instead of calling someone?
Yes, that's the whole idea behind SelfTow. Share your location, pick your vehicle and the service you need, and confirm. No phone call required.
