Accident Recovery Ottawa

Accident recovery in Ottawa goes beyond just hooking up a car and driving away. A vehicle that has been in a collision may have bent frames, missing wheels, leaking fluids, deployed airbags, and sharp metal edges. Loading it safely requires specific equipment and experience. Ontario Towing's recovery operators handle these situations every week across Ottawa.

What accident recovery involves

Standard towing assumes the vehicle has four working wheels and intact steering. Accident recovery does not assume any of that. Our operators bring winch cables, extra strapping, fluid containment materials, and the knowledge to load a vehicle that is severely damaged without causing additional harm to it or the surrounding area.

Some accident recoveries involve pulling a vehicle out of a ditch after it left the road. Others involve separating two vehicles that are locked together after a head-on or T-bone collision. Each scene is different and our team adapts to the specific situation.

Common accident recovery locations in Ottawa

The highest-volume accident corridors in Ottawa are the Highway 417 interchange zones at Pinecrest, Maitland, and Nicholas. The Innes Road and Cyrville Road intersection. The Hunt Club and Riverside Drive area. And the Highway 174 merge lanes heading east from the split. These areas produce multiple collision calls per week during winter months and our drivers know them well.
