Towing and roadside assistance inShawinigan
The energy of the City put to work for your road safety
Towing, specialized vehicle transport, battery boost and lockout services, available at all times from Grand-Mère to Shawinigan-Sud.
Shawinigan proudly bears the title of City of Energy, a legacy of an industrial heritage built around its spectacular waterfalls and the Saint-Maurice River. Today, the city brings together several former sectors, including Grand-Mère and Shawinigan-Sud, connected by a network of bridges, urban boulevards and roads that trace the river. This blend of urban living and closeness to nature demands a towing team that can respond quickly, whether the breakdown occurs downtown or on a road bordering Mauricie National Park.
Our main service
Towing
A collision narrowly avoided on boulevard des Hêtres, a mechanical breakdown near the bridge spanning the Saint-Maurice River, or a vehicle stranded on route 157 heading toward the national park: our towing service handles all these situations for vehicles under 3000 kg. Our certified operators arrive with the necessary equipment, whether a flatbed, straps, a winch, or towing with lifted wheels, to bring your vehicle in without additional damage.
Shawinigan's territory combines busy urban arteries, strategic bridges and quieter roads toward Grand-Mère or the edges of the Mauricie forest. Our trucks are equipped to respond effectively in each of these environments, day or night, in any season. We also work closely with insurers to lighten your paperwork.
- Emergency towing following an accident or breakdown
- Flatbed towing for gentle transport
- Extraction of vehicles stuck in a ditch, snowy parking lot or snow
- Service active 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, across all Shawinigan sectors
- Direct coordination with insurance companies
For valuable vehicles
Specialized transport of vehicles and property
Our range goes beyond standard towing. Whether the destination is a garage in Grand-Mère, a buyer in Shawinigan-Sud or an industrial site in the region, our specialized transport service uses high-quality trailers and straps to ensure safe transport. Each job is handled with the same rigor, no matter what type of vehicle.
Classic cars and prestige vehicles
A classic car or prestige vehicle deserves treatment befitting its status, much like the industrial heritage the city has preserved over the decades. We use gentle securing methods that avoid any direct contact with the body, rims or sensitive components. Auto show, restoration shop, private transaction or relocation between two properties in the region: your vehicle arrives in the exact condition it left.
Snowmobiles
The proximity of Mauricie National Park and vast surrounding forests make Shawinigan a favorite starting point for snowmobilers. Mechanical failure mid-ride, emergency return after a breakdown, or transport to a repair shop: our team takes care of your snowmobile quickly so your season doesn't get cut short.
All-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and side-by-sides
The network of trails surrounding the city, between forests and former industrial roads, attracts many ATV and side-by-side enthusiasts. Our trailers are suited to this type of vehicle, whether after a trailside breakdown, a minor accident or simply transportation between two locations.
Other vehicles and special equipment
Motorcycles, personal watercraft, small utility trailers, light industrial equipment: our versatile fleet adapts to a wide range of needs, much like a city that has always known how to reinvent itself. Have a particular item to transport and unsure if we can handle it? Get in touch with us; each request is evaluated individually so we can offer you the best solution.
Dead battery
Jump-start service
Mauricie winters, with their deep cold settling along the Saint-Maurice River, put batteries to the test. Forgotten lights left on, intense cold or a battery near the end of its life: our mobile battery boost service responds directly on-site to get your vehicle going again, without needing full towing. Our technicians travel with professional equipment compatible with the vast majority of vehicles.
Each intervention respects the safety standards needed to protect modern vehicles' sensitive electronic components. If the battery needs replacing or a bigger electrical problem is found, we guide you to the next steps, towing included, to the repair shop of your choice in the region.
- Quick response across all Shawinigan sectors
- Professional and safe battery boost equipment
- Compatible with the majority of vehicles, including newer models
- Service available at all times, winter and summer
Keys locked inside
Vehicle lockout service
Finding your keys locked inside the vehicle is always frustrating, whether in a downtown business parking lot, near the City of Energy or at the entrance to Mauricie National Park. Our lockout service quickly resolves this situation, without damaging the body, windows or locking mechanism. Our technicians master the techniques suited to the vast majority of makes and models.
Special attention is given when the situation involves a child or animal left in the vehicle, intense cold or an isolated area. We aim for quick intervention so you can get back on the road with peace of mind, wherever you are in Shawinigan.
