About Stephen's Wrecker Service
Family-Owned Since 1972
Stephen's Wrecker Service was founded in 1972 in Tifton, Georgia. What started as a single tow truck and a commitment to honest work has grown into one of South Georgia's most trusted towing and recovery operations — now in its third generation of family ownership.
For over 50 years, we've served the communities along the I-75 corridor and the backroads of South Georgia. We've towed everything from passenger cars to fully loaded 18-wheelers, recovered rolled semis from ditches at 3 AM, and pulled stuck farm equipment out of fields in the middle of harvest season.
Three Generations of Towing
When you call Stephen's, you're not calling a franchise or a call center. You're calling a family business where the people who answer the phone are the same people who show up with the truck. Our operators have grown up in this industry — learning to rig, recover, and problem-solve from the generation before them.
That experience matters when you're standing on the side of I-75 at midnight with a rolled tractor-trailer. It matters when your diesel pusher breaks down 200 miles from home. And it matters when you need someone who will tell you the truth about what the job will cost before they start.
Our Philosophy
We believe in honest pricing, fast response, and doing the job right the first time. We don't upsell. We don't run dispatch queues behind call centers. When you call, we answer. When we quote a price, that's the price. When we show up, we're ready to work.
We accept almost all major credit cards and electronic checks (ComChek, EFS, FleetOne) for your convenience.
