Towing and Roadside Assistance Services in Barrhaven

Every towing situation is different. A car that will not start in a Stonebridge driveway is a different call than a collision on Highway 416 at midnight. Ontario Towing handles both. We run a full fleet with the right equipment for whatever you are dealing with in Barrhaven.

Tow Trucks & Barrhaven Neighborhoods

Barrhaven runs from Fallowfield Road in the north to new developments south of the Jock River. It is one of the most spread out communities in Ottawa. We cover the entire area, including streets that other companies have not caught up with yet:

Barrhaven Roads and Why They Matter for Towing

Strandherd Drive is Barrhaven's main commercial artery. It runs through the heart of the community past Barrhaven Centre, Strandherd Crossing, and dozens of retailers and restaurants. This road sees some of the highest call volumes for lockouts and battery boosts in all of Ottawa south, particularly around the shopping centre parking lots.

Greenbank Road connects Barrhaven to Nepean and handles heavy traffic in both directions during morning and evening rush hours. Woodroffe Avenue runs along the eastern edge and leads directly toward the Ottawa Airport corridor. Both roads see regular breakdown calls year round.

Highway 416 runs along Barrhaven's western boundary. This is a high speed freeway connecting Ottawa to Highway 401 and Kingston. The Fallowfield Road interchange is the main access point for Barrhaven drivers and sees accidents and vehicle incidents regularly, particularly during winter conditions on the S-curve section near the Jock River. Ontario Towing treats all Highway 416 calls as priority responses.

Winter in Barrhaven creates its own category of calls. Dead batteries in residential driveways spike in January and February. Vehicles get stuck in unploughed subdivision streets after overnight snowfall. Accidents on Strandherd Drive and Greenbank Road increase significantly when temperatures drop. We are ready for all of it, all winter long.
