How Our Roadside Assistance Process Works
1. Describe Your Problem and Location
Call 613-869-2323 and tell us what happened, where your vehicle is located, and what type of vehicle you drive. A live dispatcher records the details and helps arrange the appropriate roadside service.
2. An Operator Is Dispatched to Your Location
Once the details are confirmed, an available operator is dispatched based on your location and the type of roadside problem. The operator arrives with equipment suited to the service requested.
3. Roadside Service Is Provided at the Scene
The operator assesses the problem and provides the appropriate roadside service at your location. This can include a battery boost, tire change, vehicle unlock, fuel delivery, or other roadside assistance.
4. Towing Can Follow When Needed
Some vehicle problems require more than roadside assistance. When the vehicle cannot continue safely, Canadian Towing can arrange transportation to a repair shop or dealership using the appropriate tow truck for the vehicle.
How to Stay Safe While Waiting for Roadside Assistance
Turn on your hazard lights as soon as you can so your vehicle remains visible to approaching traffic and the roadside operator. On a highway shoulder, stay inside your vehicle with your seatbelt fastened whenever it is safer to remain there.
Move to a parking lot, wide shoulder, or side street only when you can do so safely. Avoid standing near moving traffic or walking around the vehicle unnecessarily. Give the dispatcher your exact location, including the nearest intersection, highway number, exit, or other visible landmark.
Keep your phone charged and available in case the dispatcher or operator needs to contact you. Stay alert to your surroundings while waiting, especially on busy roads and highways.
Why Ottawa Drivers Choose Canadian Towing for Roadside Services
Why Ottawa Winters Are Hard on Your Battery
Ottawa's winter cold can reduce available battery power and make starting a vehicle more difficult. A battery that performs normally during warmer months can struggle once temperatures drop below freezing, especially when it is already aging or losing its ability to hold a charge.
Batteries around three to four years old can become more vulnerable during cold weather. A vehicle that starts normally in the fall may fail during the first major freeze, leaving you parked at home, work, or on the roadside.
When a battery keeps losing its charge after a boost, another jump may only provide a temporary solution. Our roadside operator can check the battery and explain its condition, helping you understand the next step.
Roadside Assistance vs. Towing: Which Service Do You Need?
Roadside assistance can handle many problems at the vehicle's location. A battery boost, flat tire change, fuel delivery, or car lockout service may be enough to get you moving again without towing.
Some situations require transportation instead of roadside assistance. Serious engine or transmission problems, collision damage, or a vehicle that cannot safely continue may require a tow to a repair shop, dealership, or another destination.
You do not need to determine the service before calling. Explain what happened and provide your vehicle's location. A dispatcher can arrange the appropriate assistance, and towing can be added when the vehicle needs to be transported.
