Tow Truck Service in Vars, Ottawa
24/7 Tow Truck & Roadside Assistance

A breakdown on Highway 417 near the Vars, ON exit can feel a lot farther from help than it actually is. With no repair shop in the village itself, a flat tire or dead battery on Frank Kenny Road means waiting on a driver who knows rural roads, not just city blocks. Canadian Towing sends licensed operators for emergency towing in Vars day and night, no matter how far out you are.

Roadside Assistance That Reaches Every Corner of Vars, Ottawa

Vars is a small village east of Ottawa in Osgoode Ward, and it does not have a repair shop or gas station of its own. A stall on Highway 417, a flat tire on Rockdale Road, or a dead battery outside St-Guillaume School means calling someone who can actually make the drive out and make it fast.

Canadian Towing serves the area from our Ottawa base, with regular calls along Highway 417 and Frank Kenny Road. We also cover nearby Kenmore, Russell, and Bearbrook for drivers who need help across the east end.

We carry full insurance and follow Ontario towing regulations on every call as your local Vars, Ontario towing company. You hear the price before the truck moves. Our operators know rural roads, gravel shoulders, and long stretches without cell coverage, so you are never left guessing when help will arrive.

Awesome service, huge thank you to Lee who picked up my car during rush hour from the middle of the Carleton University campus which can be tough to navigate at the best of times! Canadian Towing managed to get me and my car to the garage safely and quickly before it closed up for the day!

What Makes Canadian Towing the Right Emergency Towing Call in Vars, ON

Fully Licensed for Every Rural Call

Canadian Towing carries full licensing and insurance for every job around Vars. We follow Ontario towing regulations on every call, so your vehicle is protected from pickup to drop-off, whether you are on Highway 417 or a quiet farm laneway.

Day or Night, We Still Answer

A dead battery at midnight or a stall on the way to an early shift does not wait for business hours. Our team answers calls 24 hours a day, every day of the year. One call reaches a real person who sends a truck your way right away.

We Know Vars' Roads Better Than a GPS

Our drivers regularly work Highway 417, Frank Kenny Road, and Rockdale Road. They know which shoulders turn soft after rain and which stretches run without cell coverage. That local knowledge means fewer wrong turns and faster arrivals.

Dispatched From Close Enough to Matter

Our fleet covers Ottawa's east end regularly, so a call from Vars does not mean a truck starting from across the city. GPS tracking locates the closest available unit and gets it moving toward you right away.

No Surprises When the Bill Comes

Towing from Vars starts at $120. You hear the price before any work begins, with no hidden fees or last-minute additions. We also coordinate with major insurance providers on accident and collision calls.

Equipment Built for Rural Recovery

Ditches, gravel shoulders, and farm laneways call for different equipment than a city curb. Our operators carry winching gear suited for soft ground and handle farm equipment recovery alongside standard passenger vehicles.

Breaking Down on Highway 417 Near Vars

Breaking Down on Highway 417 Near Vars

Highway 417 runs right past Vars, and a breakdown near the exit puts you farther from a repair shop than it would in the city. There is no shoulder service nearby, and traffic moves fast enough that a stalled vehicle needs quick, careful handling.

We send trucks equipped for highway recovery, not just local towing. That means safe positioning on the shoulder, proper signage, and a fast pickup so you are not exposed to passing traffic any longer than necessary.

How Help Reaches You in Vars, Step by Step

1. Call and Tell Us Where You Are

Call 613-869-2323 and let us know your vehicle type and exact location. Mention if you are on Highway 417, a farm laneway, or a specific road so we can plan the right approach before the truck leaves.

2. We Pick the Truck That Fits the Job

A flatbed for a damaged vehicle. A heavy wrecker for a stalled farm truck. Winching gear for a ditch recovery. Dispatch selects the right equipment based on your situation and the road conditions around you.

3. You Know the Price Before We Roll

You receive a clear price based on your vehicle and the service needed before the truck moves. No hidden fees. No surprises when the job is done. Work only begins once you approve the quote.

4. Your Vehicle Arrives Safe and Sound

The closest available truck takes the fastest route out to Vars. Your vehicle is loaded and secured using professional equipment, then delivered safely to your chosen repair shop, dealership, or home.

Ditch and Farm Equipment Recovery Around Frank Kenny Road

Ditch and Farm Equipment Recovery Around Frank Kenny Road

Frank Kenny Road and Rockdale Road do not have the curbs or shoulders you would find in Ottawa's core. Rain, snow, and loose gravel can push a vehicle into a ditch faster than most drivers expect.

During harvest season, farm equipment sometimes needs a tow of its own. Our team carries winching gear built for soft ground and can recover both passenger vehicles and larger equipment from rural laneways without causing further damage.

About Vars, Ontario

Vars is a compact rural community in Osgoode Ward, in the east end of Ottawa. The village was first settled around 1836 and had grown into a small settlement soon after. Its population reached 1,579 at the 2021 Census. The community was originally known as Bearbrook Station, named for the Bear Brook waterway that once powered a local sawmill. It was renamed Vars in 1881, with two different stories behind the name still told locally.

The village is home to Alcide Trudeau Park, the St-Guillaume French elementary school, and Ottawa Fire Service Station 73, relocated to the south end of Frank Kenny Road in 2007. The Vars Community Association keeps residents connected through newsletters and local events. A handful of small businesses, including a pizzeria and a pharmacy, serve the community directly.

Canadian Towing has served Vars and the surrounding Osgoode Ward since 2015. Our licensed and insured operators provide 24/7 towing, vehicle recovery, and roadside assistance with fast dispatch and transparent pricing. From Highway 417 breakdowns to farm laneway recoveries, Vars residents can count on a team that understands rural roads and responds quickly.
