Highway 417 and Carp Road Tow Truck Calls
Highway 417 defines Stittsville's northern boundary. It is the primary connection between this community and the rest of Ottawa. Every morning, thousands of Stittsville residents use the Carp Road interchange or the Huntmar Drive interchange to get onto the 417. Because this is a high-speed highway with significant daily volume, breakdowns require urgent tow truck response. We treat all 417 calls from Stittsville as priority dispatches.
Carp Road is the main north-south artery through Stittsville. It runs from the 417 down through the community past Hazeldean Road and into the newer development areas further south. It carries both residential and commercial traffic. Regular incidents happen at peak hours along this stretch.
Furthermore, Hazeldean Road connects Stittsville eastward through Bells Corners and into Nepean. It is the commercial spine of the community. Big box stores, restaurants, and service businesses along Hazeldean generate constant parking lot traffic. As a result, lockouts and battery calls from this corridor come in regularly.
Navigating Stittsville's Newer Streets
Because Stittsville is still actively growing, its road network keeps changing. New streets appear in developing subdivisions regularly. Some of them do not appear on older maps yet. When you call us from a new street in south Stittsville, give us the nearest intersection or a nearby landmark. Our drivers know Stittsville well. We will find you without delay.
Ontario Towing is insurance approved and TSSEA compliant. Whether your tow truck call comes from the 417 shoulder or a residential street in Jackson Trails, our documentation meets every standard your insurance company requires.
How Long for a Tow Truck to Reach Stittsville?
Stittsville sits roughly 25 to 30 kilometres from downtown Ottawa. Our dispatch covers the west end of the city. We typically reach most Stittsville locations within 25 to 40 minutes.

We carry winch and recovery equipment for exactly these situations. Call us at (613) 619-4545 and give us your location. We will come prepared with the right equipment.
Is towing more expensive in Stittsville because it is further from Ottawa?
The price reflects the distance of the actual tow, not the distance from our dispatch location. A short local tow within Stittsville is priced accordingly. We cover Stittsville as part of our regular service area. There is no premium just for being in this community. We give you the price before we dispatch and there are no surprises.
