Light-Duty Towing
For sedans, hatchbacks, and small SUVs — our most common call. We provide a quick response and use a wheel-lift or flatbed depending on the vehicle's condition.
When your vehicle breaks down on US-89 or anywhere around Circleville, waiting isn’t an option. American Towing has 15+ years of experience getting drivers off the shoulder and back on the road safely, covering Circleville, Kingston, Junction, Panguitch, and the surrounding Garfield County area.
We’re not a call center that dispatches whoever’s available. Our team knows these roads — the tight canyon turns, the stretches with no cell signal, the spots where a breakdown means a long wait if you call the wrong company. That local knowledge, backed by over 2,700 quick-response calls handled, is why drivers here call us first.
Towing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and treating it that way is how vehicles get damaged. Depending on what you’re driving and what happened, the right approach changes:
We assess this over the phone before we dispatch, so the truck that shows up is already equipped for your specific situation — not a generic tow truck figuring it out on-site.
Here's exactly what happens when you call — no guesswork, no surprises, just a clear route from your breakdown to the fix.
Tell us your location and what's wrong. If you're not sure, that's fine — just describe what you see or hear.
Not sure of your exact spot? We'll help you pin it down using the nearest mile marker, cross street, or landmark.
Based on your vehicle type, we send a flatbed, wheel-lift, or recovery truck — not whichever one happens to be free.
We give you an honest arrival estimate, not a lowball number just to get you off the phone.
Our driver checks the vehicle before hooking up, especially for accidents or off-road recoveries.
Your vehicle goes to your chosen destination — home, a repair shop, or our yard if needed.
From everyday passenger vehicles to trucks, motorcycles, accident recoveries, and long-distance transport, we dispatch the right equipment for your vehicle and situation.
For sedans, hatchbacks, and small SUVs — our most common call. We provide a quick response and use a wheel-lift or flatbed depending on the vehicle's condition.
For lowered vehicles, all-wheel-drive cars, motorcycles, and anything where dragging on the wheels could cause damage. Your vehicle rides fully off the ground.
For pickup trucks, vans, and larger vehicles that require more towing capacity than a standard light-duty tow truck can provide.
We use specialized wheel chocks and soft-tie straps — never a standard hook that could damage the motorcycle's forks, frame, or bodywork.
For vehicles that are off the road, in a ditch, or otherwise stuck after a collision. These situations may require winch-out recovery before the vehicle can be safely towed.
For drivers who need their vehicle transported beyond Garfield County — to a dealership, specialty repair shop, home, or another destination in a different city.
For vehicles stuck in mud, snow, soft ground, or a ditch. We carefully pull the vehicle back to a safe surface before towing it when additional transport is required.
While we are already on scene for a tow, we can also assist with roadside tire changes and vehicle lockouts, allowing one call to solve more than one problem.
Not sure which towing service you need? Tell us what happened and what vehicle you drive. We will dispatch the right truck and equipment.

We run a mixed fleet built for the range of calls we receive around Circleville — flatbeds for vehicles that cannot be towed on their wheels, and wheel-lift trucks for quicker, standard light-duty tows.
Every truck carries the equipment needed to protect your vehicle and keep the scene safe — soft-tie straps and wheel chocks for motorcycles and low-clearance vehicles, winching gear for stuck or off-road recoveries, and safety lighting so our crew and your vehicle remain visible on the roadside.
The right truck and equipment are selected according to your vehicle type, condition, location, and recovery requirements.
Based out of Circleville, we provide towing, roadside assistance, vehicle recovery, and transport services throughout the surrounding communities and the US-89 corridor.

Call 435-231-1116Towing pricing is not one flat number. Your final price depends on several practical factors related to the vehicle, distance, timing, and recovery requirements.
Pricing depends on how far your vehicle needs to travel from the pickup location to the repair shop, dealership, home, or other requested drop-off point.
A standard sedan tow usually costs less than a flatbed job for a lowered vehicle, all-wheel-drive car, motorcycle, van, pickup, or larger vehicle.
After-hours, holiday, emergency, or difficult roadside calls may carry a different rate than standard daytime towing requests.
A straightforward roadside tow generally costs less than a winch-out from a ditch, mud, snow, soft ground, or an off-road recovery situation.
Rather than quoting a number that may not match your actual situation, we provide a clear price over the phone once we know your location, vehicle type, destination, and required equipment. You will know the expected charge before we dispatch, with no surprise charges after your vehicle is already loaded.

Your vehicle remains protected throughout the service. From safe loading and secure transport to the final drop-off, our team follows professional towing and roadside safety procedures.
Towing is not only about having a truck available. It is about local road knowledge, sending the right equipment, communicating clearly, and giving you the information you need before the tow begins.
More than 15 years of experience and 2,700+ calls answered. That track record is why repeat customers and referrals make up a large share of our service calls.
We know Garfield County roads — including the routes GPS gets wrong and the locations where cell service is limited or unavailable. That local knowledge means a faster, more accurate response.
We match the towing equipment to your vehicle before leaving the yard instead of sending whatever truck happens to be free and hoping it can handle the job.
You will know the expected towing cost before we dispatch — not after your vehicle has already been loaded onto the truck.

Alan arrived relatively quickly, secured my vehicle with skill and us to auto repairshop and waited patiently while I made a decision on whether to be towed further or get my car worked on. I enjoyed our conversation and he made me feel comfortable as well. Thank you!![]()

Heading back north from vacation in southern Utah and got a flat tire just past Beaver Utah. Alan kept us informed of his ETA, changed the tire out quickly and then followed us to the tire store. Alan went above and beyond and delivered exceptional service.![]()

Alan Sudweeks, owner of American Towing Service Utah is remarkable. We had an emergency requiring a 3 hour tow to a service center an Alan must have driven hours to get to us and then drove our vehicle my wife and me several hours. Alan is one of the friendliest people we've met, he has real expertise, he is fully trustworthy and we will call him again if we ever need his services again. If not, we'd love to see him again anyway! Rather than give the 5 stars which are normally suggested, Alan and American Towing Service Utah deserve 1000 stars!![]()

We had an unfortunate incident of getting stuck near Bryce Canyon. Alan was prompt to show up, towed us all the way back to Kanab. He gladly accommodated our two fur babies in his truck which was a life saver. Tow trucks are usually needed when things have gone wrong, Alan with his positive personality and optimistic outlook makes us feel better which is far beyond just mechanically towing the vehicle. I hope you don’t need his service, but if you need he is the man to go for. Thanks Alan!![]()

Towed my van from Tropic to St George, and the drive felt like 30 minutes because the conversation was so good. Cheers, Alan! Thanks for the help![]()

We were referred to American Towing Service by AAA. The service rep was Alan Sudweeks, who was phenomenal. Because there was no closer option, he drove three hours just to get to us and then another two and a half hours to our destination. He had to turn right around to drive five plus hours back. He was super helpful and kind and went above and beyond to be careful with my car and help us out in a challenging situation. I am grateful. Definitely recommended!![]()

Great service! I was stuck 5 miles into a slick, muddy offroad trail in the Dixie NF and Alan was very quick to respond. He was able to pull me out with a tow rope and pickup truck. Super friendly and professional service, and I feel the price was very reasonable.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 31 reviews

Response time depends on your exact location and what else we've got dispatched at the moment. Circleville and nearby towns generally get the fastest response since that's our home base; more remote spots along the US-89 corridor may take a bit longer. We'll always give you an honest ETA when you call, not a guess.
Yes — we use flatbeds and proper strapping for motorcycles and AWD vehicles, since dragging either on wheels can cause drivetrain damage.
Your location (or nearest landmark/mile marker), your vehicle type, and a brief description of the issue — flat tire, won't start, accident, etc.
It can, since after-hours and holiday response involves different staffing. We'll always tell you the price before dispatching, so there's no guessing after the fact.
Yes — just let us know the destination when you call, and we'll confirm distance-based pricing upfront.
