I cannot say enough how above and beyond Al and AAT went for me today. I would recommend this tow service to everyone.
I pretty much had the perfect storm of conditions. Our AAA roadside assistance was over 2 hours late. My wife, mother-in-law and two kids were going nuts and Al came by at the drop of the hat and saved the day.
I wish all tow truck companies were this efficient, prompt and all-around professional.
If I need any towing in the future there will be no other company I am going to call.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - James B.Newton, NC8311Feb 27, 2024
If you care about your vehicles as much as I do, call Al @ All Area Towing. I needed two cars towed and set an appointment for later in the week. Al was communicative throughout the process. He showed up on time with a beautiful flat-bed Chevy, and quickly had my first car ready to roll.
Two separate cars being moved to the next town over took less than 2.5 hours from start to finish, and all for less than I had expected to pay.
I'll definitely be using A.A.T. for my future towing needs.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Barbara D.Walnut Creek, CA1048126Jul 11, 2023

Saturday started out a bad day for my daughter with her car breaking down in Orinda. Ended up being a very good day, thanks to Al Parnoff, the owner of All Area Towing. Phoned the Shell Service Station in Orinda, Kathy recommended we give Al a call. Glad we did, Al told us how long it would take to get to the broken down vehicle and kept us informed of progress. When Al arrived he immediately diagnosed the problem (damaged battery cable) and set about getting the car onto his flat bed towing truck. 10 minutes later we met him at the Shell garage and mechanic Nick set about repairing the damaged battery cable, within 30 minutes the problem was fixed. Al was an absolute delight to talk with, very knowlegable, helpful beyond belief, and his towing fee was very reasonable in my opinion. Also, big shout out to Kathy and Nick, also a delight to talk to, helpful and reasonable/fair repair cost.
You may have noticed all my reviews to date on Yelp have been 5 star, this is deliberate. Life is too short to focus on that which does not make us happy. This is why I restrict my reviews to those things/places/services that make me happy and appreciate life. Sure, I have been to some really dreadful shops, hotels and restaurants etc., but, like I said, life is too short to spend time thinking and writing about them.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nam F.Wild Oak, Walnut Creek, CA0122Jan 12, 2023
Excellent! Came quickly and knowledgeable! Al is a funny guy!
Nanny's prius driven into a ditch on Walnut Blvd in the dark, he got it out, checked it, made sure it was kk to drive. AAA said they would be there in 3 hrs, Al was there within 30 min!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Vikramjit C.San Francisco, CA041Mar 30, 2023
Al is epic and responded within 25 minutes for a tow from Dublin to Walnut Creek. He is very well versed in towing and is also hilarious at the same time!

My car wouldn't start on a Saturday and I had no idea what was wrong. Called a couple of towing companies but all I got was voicemail. Then I called All Area Towing and Al immediately answered. Al asked questions over the phone to diagnose the problem and showed up with within 1-1/2 hours. He quickly figured out the battery needed replacing and gave me a jump start. Al was incredibly nice, responsive, and had a good sense of humor. He even gave me tips on how much I should be paying for a battery replacement. I highly recommend All Area Towing!

Had starter issues with my motorcycle and did a quick search for "motorcycle towing". Gave AAT a call and spoke with Al (the owner) and scheduled a next day pickup and delivery. Al is the truest definition of a business owner who literally puts the personal touch on his service as he is the one that handles most pickups for AAT. He is super-experienced in the industry and has handled everything from regular sedans to foreign super cars and show-level classics. Pickup and delivery of my bike was completed within 30mins (within Contra Costa County) and his pricing is great. A true value. Thanks Al!

Had to get my car towed today for the first time and was extremely nervous about it, but thank goodness I called Al with All Area Towing! Al was very prompt in getting the job done. He also went above & beyond by taking the time to help me trouble shoot with what the issue may be with my car. A true professional! Obviously, I'd hope not to have this happen again but if ever it does, Al is the first person I'd call!
