The Berts Story
Service Is Our Business! and it has been, for over 65 years! The Berts story starts in 1956 with the opening of Berts Service Station at the corner of Kennedy Ave. and 173rd St. in the Hessville neighborhood. The business flourished and was an anchor for the neighborhood for decades. As the business grew, the towing operation took over the neighboring carwash, and that has served as the operations hub since 1974.
What started as a neighborhood gas and service station has grown into THE TRUSTED NAME in Towing, Transport and Recovery in the Midwest. Berts Towing is an industry leader in training, technology, and advocacy for our industry. Today, Berts Towing is in its THIRD generation of family ownership and is ready to serve you with the latest in equipment and expanded range of services.
We pledge to continue the Berts Service Station moto of “Service Is Our Business” as we continue to grow. Work is underway on our new headquarters and shop, and we look to move into our new home Summer of 2022.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Very good service.
I always call Bert’s whenever I need something. They’re the fastest responding, the best quality, and all around the nicest people. Blake helped me get my cobalt home and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you again guys!
Super fast service, Luis was very respectful and helpful. Great company to do business with, call them, you won't be disappointed.
On our way to our weekend getaway to Michigan, our tire blew out on the highway. We called at least 4 companies for roadside and Berts was the one to answer. Lady who answered the call was super nice and accommodating for such a crummy situation. They dispatched a vehicle within about 15 minutes and took us to a tire shop just before they closed. Amazing service, super affordable pricing highly recommend. Appreciate these guys saving our weekend.
Thank you for such excellent service!
Great service awsome people to work with!
