Effing rip offs tried to charge 500. for a tow after an almost lethal accident....after keeping our last vehicle with no trace of it on record.... if I were you and I have a lot of followers on all platforms; NEVER use McCarthy's towing or you will get scammed. However, if you do! Can't say I didn't warn ya!

Took it right to our mechanic and were professional through the whole process. No wonder they have been in business for over 40years. Thanks McCarthys!!
