Towing in Highway 2 South & Long-Distance Tows

Nanton, Claresholm, Fort Macleod and on to Lethbridge — the long-haul corridor.

+1 (587) 436-8900

Not every tow ends where it starts. We run the Highway 2 corridor south of Calgary regularly — Nanton, Stavely, Claresholm, Fort Macleod and down towards Lethbridge — for vehicles and equipment that need to go a long way rather than to the nearest shop. Long-distance towing is a different service from an emergency call-out: it is usually planned, the price is quoted up front, and the question is whether the deck suits the load rather than how fast we can get there.

The roads

Where the calls come from

Highway 2 south of High River

The spine of the corridor. Long, fast, exposed, and thin on services between towns.

Highway 3 (Crowsnest)

The east-west route through Fort Macleod towards Lethbridge and the Pass, carrying heavy commercial traffic.

Highway 22 (Cowboy Trail)

The western alternative through ranch country — scenic, remote, and a long way from help.

What goes wrong

Local conditions

  • Wind is the defining feature: the stretch between Fort Macleod and Lethbridge is among the windiest highway in the province, and high-sided trailers go over.
  • Services thin out between towns, so a breakdown at the wrong point is a long wait for anyone who has to come from Calgary or Lethbridge.
  • Winter closures on Highway 3 and the Pass can strand commercial traffic for extended periods.

Who calls

What we move here

  • Long-distance vehicle moves between Calgary and the south
  • Equipment relocation to and from job sites down the corridor
  • Breakdown recovery for traffic that is a long way from either end

Common questions

Highway 2 South & Long-Distance Tows questions

How much does a long-distance tow cost from Calgary?
It is quoted rather than metered — the distance, the size of the load and whether it needs winching on all matter. Phone with the pickup point, the destination and what the vehicle or equipment is, and you will get a number before anything is committed.
Will you tow from Calgary to Lethbridge or further?
Yes. Long hauls down the Highway 2 and Highway 3 corridors are routine work, including equipment moves that need a heavy deck. Because these are usually planned rather than emergency jobs, booking ahead gets you a better slot and a better price.
Do you do one-way equipment moves between job sites?
Yes. Moving plant and equipment between sites down the corridor is a regular part of the work — forklifts, tractors, skid steers, tanks and service units. Tell us the dimensions and weight and whether it rolls or has to be winched.
