- Flatbed: $125 + $4 per km after 10 km. Light duty: $85 + $3.50 per km after 10 km.
- Give us the pickup spot and the full drop-off address, and you get one total before we leave.
Where does long distance towing from Steveston usually go?
Most of our longer trips start the same way: a car bought online that needs to come home, a dealer warranty repair in another city, or a move where the second car can't be driven. Steveston sits at the bottom corner of Richmond, so almost every long tow heads out on Steveston Highway to Highway 99, then south through the tunnel to Delta and the Fraser Valley, or north over the bridges to Vancouver. Short trips inside Richmond are just car towing; anything past the 10 km in the starting price is where per-km pricing starts.
Your car rides on the flatbed for the whole trip, wheels off the road, which matters for AWD cars and EVs on a long highway run. Bigger loads, like a camper or a work truck, go on our heavy duty towing trucks at their own published rate.

Long distance tow truck routes out of Steveston and Richmond
Heading south, Highway 99 takes us through the George Massey Tunnel, which the province is replacing with a new crossing under the Fraser River Tunnel Project. Construction can change lanes and timing, so we check the route before we load. North to Vancouver, we cross the Oak Street or Knight Street bridges depending on where you're headed.
For trips over the mountains or up the coast, weather is the bigger worry in winter. We look at DriveBC for road conditions and highway cams before we set off, and we'll tell you if a road closure means the trip should wait. If your car only needs flatbed towing across town, there's no need to plan any of this.
