The 24 towing services on this page cover Gainesville, FL. Some are based in town and the rest dispatch from nearby. Hours, emergency response and truck types come from each company's own website; ratings and quotes come from public reviews.
Most operators work a radius rather than a list of towns, and the radius stretches when the job is worth the drive. Ask two things: how far out they come, and how far they will haul the car once it is loaded. A long haul is often quoted per mile after a base distance.
You do, unless the police ordered the tow. Name the shop and the address when you call, and confirm the driver heard you. If you have no shop in mind, a car dropped at the towing company's own yard starts collecting storage, so it is worth picking a destination before the truck is loaded.
If the vehicle is a box truck, a bus, a loaded pickup or a large motorhome, yes, and the operator needs to know the weight and the length before dispatch. A light duty truck sent to a heavy job leaves and you wait again. Not every company in a city runs heavy equipment, and the ones that do usually say so.
