About Eugene Towing: Your Trusted Local Towing Service in Lane County

Our Story: Building Eugene’s Most Reliable Towing Service

University of Oregon campus scene - towing in EugeneEugene Towing began in 2003 when founder Mike Johnson, a third-generation Eugene resident and former mechanic, recognized that the growing Eugene-Springfield area needed a more responsive, customer-focused towing service. What started with a single tow truck and Mike’s commitment to honest service has grown into Lane County’s premier towing and roadside assistance company, now operating a fleet of modern vehicles and employing a team of certified professionals.

Our journey hasn’t always been smooth – we’ve weathered economic downturns, adapted to changing vehicle technologies, and continued serving through extreme weather events that challenged our entire community. Through it all, our commitment to Eugene and the surrounding communities has never wavered. We’ve built our reputation one successful service call at a time, earning the trust of local residents, businesses, and automotive professionals throughout Lane County.
