Tow Truck Orleans | Ontario Towing

Orleans sits at the east end of Ottawa, about 16 kilometres from downtown, and it is home to over 125,000 people. It is one of the most bilingual communities in the country, a family-oriented suburb with deep roots and a strong sense of identity. It is also a community where Highway 174 carries thousands of commuters every single day, where St-Joseph Boulevard and Innes Road handle constant local traffic, and where a breakdown can leave you stranded far from the nearest service.

Ontario Towing has been operating in Ottawa since 1999. We serve Orleans as a primary zone. Our drivers know this community and we respond to calls here every day.

What Happens When You Call Ontario Towing From Orleans

A real person answers. We ask where you are, what is going on with the vehicle, and we tell you exactly when we will arrive. No call centre, no automated system routing you through menus while you stand on the side of Innes Road in January.

We send the right equipment based on what you actually need. If the vehicle needs a flatbed, a flatbed comes. If you just need a boost or a tire change, we handle it on the spot. If you have been in a collision on Highway 174, we respond as a priority call.

Ontario Towing is insurance approved and TSSEA compliant. Every tow we do in Orleans meets the documentation requirements your insurance company needs. You do not have to worry about that side of things when you are already dealing with a stressful situation.

Highway 174 and Orleans Towing

Highway 174 is the main artery connecting Orleans to the rest of Ottawa. Every morning and evening, thousands of Orleans residents use it to commute west toward downtown and back. It runs directly through the community, splitting it into north and south sections, and it carries significant traffic volume throughout the day.

A breakdown on Highway 174 is serious. This is a high-speed road with limited shoulder space in certain sections and heavy traffic flow during peak hours. Ontario Towing prioritizes highway calls from Orleans and our drivers are familiar with every interchange, every exit, and every access point along the 174 corridor.

If your vehicle stops on Highway 174, put your hazards on immediately, stay in the vehicle if it is safe, and call us at (613) 619-4545. Tell us your nearest exit or landmark and we will get to you as fast as road conditions allow.

Beyond the highway, St-Joseph Boulevard is Orleans' main commercial street. Place d'Orleans, one of the largest malls in eastern Ottawa, sits along this corridor and generates regular calls for lockouts and battery boosts, especially during busy shopping periods. Innes Road, Tenth Line Road, and Trim Road are the other major corridors we respond to regularly throughout the day.

How Long Will a Tow Truck Take to Reach Orleans?

Orleans is about 25 to 35 minutes from central Ottawa under normal traffic conditions. Our dispatch covers the east end and we reach most parts of Orleans within that window. During rush hour on Highway 174 times can vary, but we will always give you an honest estimate when you call and we update you if anything changes.

We do not make you wait without information. When you call from Orleans, you get a real arrival time from a real person who knows where they are going.
