About Our Accident & Collision Towing Service
After a collision, the last thing you need is a tow company that adds to the stress. KO Towing & Recovery handles accident tows across Orange County, Long Beach, and Los Angeles around the clock. We pick the right truck for the damage, using a flatbed when wheels, axles, or the front end are hurt, and load the car without making things worse. You decide where it goes: your own body shop, the dealer, your home, or our secure yard in Fullerton or Los Angeles. If it comes to our yard, we keep it safe while your insurer inspects it, and we release it to the shop or salvage auction they send. Call us from the scene, or ask the officer to let you choose your own tow company when it's safe to do so.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who pays for an accident tow?
It depends on your coverage. Many auto policies include towing and storage, and if the other driver was at fault their insurer may cover it. AAA members are covered up to their plan's towing miles. We can bill the person who calls us, and we'll give you an itemized receipt for your claim.
Can I choose where my car gets towed after an accident?
Usually, yes. If your car isn't blocking traffic and police don't need to order a tow, you can choose the tow company and the destination. If an officer orders a rotation tow, ask where your car is going so you can move it later.
Do storage fees apply if my car goes to your yard?
Yes. Daily storage fees apply while a vehicle is in our yard. Moving it to a body shop quickly, or having your insurer authorize release early, keeps those costs down. Call us for current rates.
What should I do at the scene before the tow truck arrives?
Get to a safe spot, call 911 if anyone is hurt or the car is blocking lanes, take photos of both vehicles and the scene, and swap license, insurance, and contact details with the other driver. Take your valuables out of the car before it's towed.
