Vehicle stuck in mud, snow, a ditch, or off the road in Nashville? Hook Em' Up Towing provides professional winch out and vehicle recovery service throughout the Nashville area. Our heavy-duty winch equipment safely extracts vehicles from difficult situations without causing additional damage to your car, truck, or SUV — or the surrounding property.
Our operators handle dozens of stuck vehicle recoveries every week across Nashville and Middle Tennessee. Common situations include: cars that slid into ditches during rain or ice storms, trucks stuck in muddy construction sites, vehicles that slid off icy roads in winter, and cars high-centered on curbs, medians, or embankments. We also recover vehicles from steep driveways, parking lot mishaps, soft shoulders along I-40 and I-24, and commercial properties where delivery trucks get wedged.
Pulling a car out of a ditch on a residential street is completely different from off-trail recovery. Urban winch outs come with hazards most people don't think about — overhead power lines, gas meters near the extraction path, retaining walls, storm drains, and traffic on adjacent lanes. Our operators do a full 360-degree site assessment before rigging, checking for underground utilities, drainage infrastructure, and bystander safety. We coordinate with Nashville Electric Service or emergency responders when needed.
We carry professional-grade equipment including heavy-duty winches rated up to 20,000 lbs, synthetic winch rope, recovery straps, steel rigging shackles, and snatch blocks for redirecting pull angles. Every extraction starts with assessing the safest angle and anchor point. We use your vehicle's factory recovery points whenever possible to avoid frame or body damage.
Winch out pricing varies based on vehicle size, how deeply stuck you are, and accessibility of the location. We don't post fixed rates — we'll give you a transparent estimate before we dispatch a truck. For severe situations, we may combine winching with flatbed towing for safe removal and transport.
How long does a winch out take? Most recoveries take 15-45 minutes once we're on scene. Deep mud or steep embankments may take longer — we'd rather do it safely than rush and cause damage.
Will winching damage my car? We use proper recovery points and the right straps and shackles rated for your vehicle. Our operators assess every situation first and choose the approach that minimizes risk.
Do you help with commercial vehicles? Yes — delivery trucks, fleet vehicles, and commercial equipment. We've extracted vehicles from construction sites, loading docks, and tight commercial properties throughout Nashville.
For trail, wilderness, or off-road park situations, see our off-road recovery service. Need roadside assistance after extraction? We can help on-site. Available 24/7 for emergency recovery. Call (615) 756-5330.

Every job we run is guided by four principles that have defined Hook Em' Up Towing since 2010.
"Helpful, responsive, and informational. Car wasn't able to start and they provided me a jump as well as informing me the issue was actually my alternator, not my battery. Gave consistent updates as to estimated arrival and were straightforward with providing a quote. Very understanding of responding to an unexpected issue and were very kind in the process."
"5/5 stars – reliable, fast, and friendly. I called Hook Em' Up Towing when my car broke down and they arrived quickly. The driver was courteous and the tow was handled smoothly. I appreciated the 24-hour towing service and how easy it was to find a tow truck near me. Highly recommend for anyone needing dependable roadside assistance."
"Hook Em' Up Towing provided exceptional service when I needed help late at night. The driver arrived quickly, was incredibly friendly and professional, and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. I especially appreciated the courteous attitude and the clear communication from start to finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, 24-hour towing and roadside assistance."
"Had a great experience with Hook 'em Up. I have a 50 year old Toyota Land Cruiser that is almost done with a full restoration. We had a pipe burst in our home and had to move it out to fix the garage ceiling. They came to the rescue and did a great job moving a very heavy, very fragile antique truck with no brakes from one hilly location to another. They came through even when 2 of their employees called out today. They were careful, respectful and got the job done. They even helped me push the truck up the sloped entrance to the storage unit — great service."
"We had our car towed in the middle of the night for about 3 hours back to our hometown, and the experience was honestly as good as it could possibly be under stressful circumstances. The team was professional, punctual, and incredibly kind. Communication was clear from start to finish, the tow was handled safely, and everything felt calm and well-managed. You can tell these are good people who take pride in their work. Late-night situations like this can be overwhelming, but they made it smooth and reassuring. Really grateful for the service and would 100% recommend them to anyone needing a long-distance tow."
"We had a tire blow on the interstate on an icy February night. Every tire store in the city was closed or out of stock so towing became required. Hook Em Up Towing answered on first call, was there within an hour, and towed our vehicle to our local repair shop in Dickson. I didn't even have to wait for the tow truck. I just left my key where they advised me to during the phone call, and they took care of the rest. The best part? The bill ended up being less than the initial quote! Highly recommend this business."
"Hook 'Em Up Towing provided a quote to tow my vehicle after a few basic questions, and included which stipulations would increase the price. They were realistic about their scheduling abilities, and very communicative regarding an unexpected delay. The driver was capable and got the job done more quickly than I expected, and provided additional information regarding potential car donation. I never expected to call around shopping for tow quotes, but I read area company reviews and made my choice accordingly, and I'm really thankful I did. They were able to provide honest work in a time of need, and much later in the day than I would've expected. Thanks, y'all!"
"My car wasn't towed until twelve hours after I called to schedule, however, the owner was very nice and communicative of the situation, and she called again to apologize for the delay. Service was very friendly, and there were no issues getting my car to its intended destination. Great customer service!"
"Lovely couple that owns the business and extremely helpful. I had no idea what was wrong with my vehicle…they popped the hood and gave their expertise knowledge and were happy to do so!"
"Extremely professional and even diagnosed my problem at the site! Wonderful! Would tow with them again (hopefully not too soon in the future lol!)."
"Had some big issues with my car's engine and needed a tow to my local Hyundai dealership to get the mechanical help I needed. Hook em up was super easy to call and get a truck out within the hour with updates to let me know how far out they were. Very respectful, helpful, and friendly staff arrived to assist in moving my vehicle to the dealership. I highly recommend them and will absolutely let any of my friends know if they are ever in need of towing services."
