Standish Towing & Recovery

We were on a family vacation and on first day one of our two car had a mechanical failure right at lake Louise. When all the near by mechanic shops could not help in emergency, I called AMA to get it towed to my home town Olds. Tow truck didn’t come till almost 5 hours after first call. But when it came, the service made up for it. Ben, the driver, is the best at customer service. This Fella recently moved to Alberta from Quebec and I must say, his integrity and customer service is rare these days. Instead of simply towing as per request, he took 5 minutes to assess the problem. He identified it to be a broken serpentine belt which I somehow had missed to check. And advised that it’s easier to get that replaced in nearby garage. He suggested some local garages where we could find parts and where someone could help us fix it, called couple of them himself while I called others. Since most of them were booked and could not help same day that late, we finally found parts and supplies at Canadian Tire in Canmore where he later dropped us. Not only he saved us money by not towing it all the way to Olds, but helped us identify the problem and where to get it fixed. What won me over was his attitude and integrity. I asked him at one time “would not it benefit him/his company if he towed me where I had originally requested?” He simply replied “my job is to help you in your problem/situation and not just tow your car.if I know your problem has an easy fix, I want you to know” in the world where everyone is after more money and more fame, this guys restored some more faith in humanity. The Standish team is lucky to have him as a member :)
P.S. we actually passed by his boss’s truck on our way and he was all praise for his boss too. How hardworking his boss is etc. Seems like this towing company is doing something right and setting up right examples for new members :)

Greg was great. Fast! He recommended other companies for services I needed. New to Sundre so having a local that spoke highly of other services was fantastic!

Great people with great service. They helped me out greatly after the theft of my late father's vehicle.

I had called about 45mins before an appointment and the driver Dasan skipped his lunch to get out which was greatly appreciated. Also of note I was having battery issues and was just going to have a tow, but Dasan said we'd try a boost first just in case and it worked. Saved me money on a full tow and was a great gentleman to deal with. Highly recommend for the Sundre area.

Broke down an hour out of Calgary. The whole experience was as good as it could of been. Super nice and flexible dispatch, and driver Mike went above and beyond (helping push car, giving basic mechanic recommendations) and despite being very busy that was incredibly accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend.
