Heavy-Duty & Commercial Vehicle Towing in Baltimore
When you need heavy duty towing in Baltimore for a semi truck, box truck, cargo van, or other commercial vehicle, you need a company that shows up with the right equipment the first time — not a national dispatch line that keeps you on hold while it searches for a local sub-contractor. A&A Towing and Roadside Service is a licensed and insured, family-owned Baltimore towing company that has been running trucks in this city since 2017. We’re the local call for warehouse and delivery fleets, box truck and cargo van drivers, RV and camper owners, and small commercial rigs that break down anywhere from Fells Point to the I-95/I-895/I-695 corridor.
What “Heavy-Duty” Means on This Page
Let’s be straightforward about scope, because “heavy-duty towing” means different things to different companies. This page covers medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles: box trucks, straight trucks, cargo and sprinter vans, U-Haul and rental trucks, RVs and campers, and small commercial fleet vehicles. If your business runs delivery vans, a box truck fleet, a work van, or you’re driving a rented moving truck or towing a camper through Baltimore, this is the crew to call.
We’ll also say plainly what this page is not promising: we’re not marketing ourselves as a heavy rotator recovery outfit for overturned tractor-trailers or multi-axle interstate wrecks that require a specialized 50-ton rotator crew. If you’re dealing with a jackknifed semi, a rollover, or a load that needs to be off-loaded before recovery, call us anyway — we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a job we can handle directly or one where we’ll point you toward the right specialized recovery resource. For the box trucks, cargo vans, RVs, campers, and commercial fleet vehicles that make up the vast majority of heavy-duty calls in the Baltimore area, we’re equipped, insured, and ready 24/7.
Heavy-Duty & Commercial Towing Services in Baltimore
Commercial vehicles break down differently than passenger cars — bigger batteries, dual rear wheels, higher curb weights, and drivers who are usually on the clock and losing money every minute they’re stuck. Our heavy-duty and commercial service list is built around that reality:
- Box truck and straight truck towing
- Cargo van and sprinter van towing
- U-Haul, Penske, and rental truck towing
- RV and camper towing
- Small commercial fleet vehicle towing
- Jump starts for commercial-grade batteries
- Lockout service for box trucks, vans, and RVs
- Tire changes, including dual rear wheel setups
- Diesel and gasoline fuel delivery
- Accident and breakdown towing for commercial vehicles
- Tow-away assistance after a DOT or roadside inspection
Every one of these calls gets a flatbed or wheel-lift setup sized to the vehicle, driven by an operator who knows how to load a commercial vehicle without doing damage to the frame, undercarriage, or cargo area.
Common Heavy-Duty & Commercial Towing Situations in Baltimore
Most of our heavy-duty and commercial calls fall into a handful of recurring situations. Knowing what to expect from each one can save you time when you’re standing on the shoulder of I-95 with a dispatcher on the phone:
- A box truck won’t restart mid-route. Dead battery, alternator failure, or a fuel issue — we’ll try a jump or fuel delivery on-site first, and tow only if the truck genuinely can’t be revived roadside.
- A cargo van breaks down at a loading dock or job site. Tight spaces and low clearances are common in Baltimore’s warehouse districts, and our drivers know how to maneuver a flatbed into a dock lane without blocking other traffic longer than necessary.
- A vehicle fails a DOT or roadside inspection. When an inspector orders a commercial vehicle off the road, it needs to be towed, not driven, to the nearest safe location or repair facility — we handle that tow-away promptly so the vehicle isn’t sitting on the shoulder any longer than it has to.
- An RV or camper stalls out on I-95, I-895, or I-695. Travelers passing through Baltimore in an RV need a truck rated to handle the vehicle’s size and weight, plus a driver who’s comfortable navigating city streets to get it to a repair shop or campground.
- A rental or U-Haul truck breaks down mid-move. These calls are usually time-sensitive because a move is in progress — we prioritize getting the truck (and whatever’s loaded inside it) somewhere safe quickly.
- A commercial vehicle is locked, with keys inside. It happens more often with fleet vehicles than most people expect, especially with drivers rotating between multiple trucks in a day.
Where Baltimore Fleet Operators Call Us From
A lot of heavy-duty and commercial tow calls come from the same handful of places, and we run trucks through all of them regularly. That includes breakdowns along I-95, I-895, and I-695 during morning and evening delivery windows, box trucks that won’t restart in the warehouse and distribution corridors around the Baltimore/Washington Parkway and Pulaski Highway, cargo vans stuck outside job sites and loading docks downtown and in Baltimore County, and RVs or rental trucks that stall out on their way through the city. Wherever the vehicle sits — a client’s parking lot, the shoulder of a highway, or a loading dock — we dispatch a local truck, not a call center hundreds of miles away trying to find someone nearby.
Why Fleet Operators & Commercial Drivers Call A&A
Fleet managers and commercial drivers don’t have time to gamble on an unknown tow company, and they usually don’t get a second chance to pick the right one after a bad experience. A broken-down delivery van isn’t just an inconvenience — it’s a missed delivery window, an idle driver on the clock, and sometimes a customer who’s already asking where their shipment is. Every extra call it takes to find a truck that will actually show up is money out the door, which is why so many Baltimore fleet operators and small business owners just save one number instead of starting over every time something breaks down. Here’s what they get when they call A&A:
- Licensed and insured — every tow is covered, which matters when the vehicle on the hook belongs to a business, not just a driver
- 5.0★ rating across 95+ real Google reviews — an honest track record, not a handful of cherry-picked testimonials
- Flat-rate, upfront pricing — you’ll know the cost before the truck loads your vehicle, not after
- Locally owned and operated — we’re not a national dispatch broker re-selling your job to a third party; A&A trucks and A&A drivers show up
- Family-owned in Baltimore since 2017 — years of local experience with the specific roads, warehouse districts, and traffic patterns commercial drivers deal with daily
- Fast local response — because we’re based at 5807 Falls Rd in Baltimore, not dispatching from out of state
If your business runs multiple vehicles and breaks down more than once a year, it’s worth saving our number before you need it. Call or text (410) 940-7999 and ask about setting up a standing account for recurring fleet or commercial towing needs.
What Heavy-Duty Towing Costs in Baltimore
Heavy-duty and commercial towing costs more than a standard car tow, and there’s no single number that applies to every job — pricing depends on the vehicle class (a cargo van costs less to move than a loaded box truck), the distance to the destination, whether the vehicle needs to be winched or recovered from an unusual position, and the time of day. What doesn’t change is how we quote it: every price is flat-rate and upfront, agreed on before the truck loads your vehicle, with no after-hours surprise fees. For a general breakdown of how Baltimore towing pricing works, see our 2026 Baltimore towing price guide, or call (410) 940-7999 for a quote specific to your vehicle and location.

Is This the Right Page for Your Vehicle?
Heavy-duty and commercial towing is its own equipment class, separate from towing a personal car, SUV, or pickup truck. If you’re driving a personal vehicle rather than a commercial one, our SUV & truck towing page is the right page for you — it covers the flatbed towing we use for personal SUVs and pickups. If you’re driving an electric vehicle, whether personal or commercial, check our EV towing page for the specific handling EVs require, since they can’t simply be pulled or winched like a gas-powered vehicle.
Not sure which category your situation falls into? Just call (410) 940-7999 and describe the vehicle — we’ll tell you straight away what truck we’re sending and roughly what to expect for cost and timing.
