    “Gregerson Towing was amazing! I was able to talk with a real live person throughout my first call to the last. Lisa was kind, personable, and informative as I waited for the tow truck to arrive to help pull me out of a rural, snow-filled, gravel road ditch! Cotter, the driver, was helpful and efficient, working with his truck's metal equipment, in literally sub-zero weather! He took care to not damage my car as he handled the pull-out with skill and knowledge. I was impressed with this company from start to finish and would highly recommend them. I will personally call on them again, if ever needed. Thanks, Gregerson Towing!”

    “I can’t recommend Tri-State towing enough. I was tboned at an intersection, and they answered the call and got a truck out there before the cops even showed up! They cleaned up the accident, gave me a ride home, and held my car in their lot until the insurance company picked it up. The driver was super nice. Could not have asked for a better experience during unfortunate accident. Thanks Tri-State! 🙏”

      “Shaw's Towing is seriously the best! They were ridiculously fast at getting a driver out to my car, and the tow itself was way less expensive than I expected. Kim, who I spoke with on the phone, was just so kind and helpful. Nick, the owner/fella who towed my car, even picked my car key up from me so that I didn't have to find a ride back out to where I left my car. They both really went out of their way to help me, and while its never fun when your car breaks down, they helped make a stressful situation better. Great people, and also, they're a local NE family business!! Thank ya'll again!”

What this Rochester ranking is based on

Every company on this page is ranked on two published inputs: its Google review rating and the number of Google reviews behind that rating. Rating decides order first; review volume breaks ties, because a 5.0 average from 8 reviews is weaker evidence than a 4.8 average from 900.

We do not accept payment for placement, and no company can buy a higher rank in Minnesota. Companies may claim their profile and submit verification, which adds a verified marker but does not change ranking position. The complete calculation, including how we handle missing data, is published on our methodology page.

Ratings and review counts for Rochester, MN are refreshed as new Google review data is collected. When the underlying data changes, this page and its ranked order change with it.
