From tow calls to buying cars

For years Noble Towing did what most tow companies do. Breakdowns, accident tows, boosts, lockouts, the odd motorcycle or forklift that needed moving. It was steady work, but the calls we liked best were the ones where somebody had a car they simply wanted gone and didn't know who to trust with it.

So that's where we put our trucks. We stopped the roadside work and turned Noble into a company that buys vehicles: scrap cars, junk cars, the van that won't pass another repair, the truck sitting behind the barn. We've been doing it this way for about ten years now.

Who you'll deal with

Noble is owner-run. The owner, Nabil, is the person a lot of our Google reviewers mention by name, and he's still involved in the day-to-day. When you call, you get someone from our own small team who knows the trucks, the schedule and the city, not an out-of-province call centre.

The drivers who show up are ours too. They confirm before they arrive, check the vehicle against what you told us, handle the paperwork with you and pay you before anything is loaded. If something about the pickup is awkward, a tight lane, a car with no wheels, a parkade, they've usually seen it before.

How we run every job

The priceStays put if the vehicle matches
The towFree for cars, trucks, SUVs, vans
ArrivalWe call ahead before we pull up
PaymentAt pickup, before it leaves
PaperworkDone on the spot, receipt included
AfterwardsFixed and resold, or recycled

What happens to your vehicle depends on what it is. Some are worth fixing, and those get repaired and back on the road. Most are taken apart: parts that still have life in them are reused, fluids and batteries are drained and handled properly, and the shell goes to a licensed metal recycler. Nothing gets left in a field.

Our trucks

We run flatbed tow trucks with winches, which matters more than it sounds. A flatbed lifts the whole vehicle onto the deck, so a car with no wheels, a locked transmission or a crushed corner comes out without being dragged.

Bigger jobs, like buses, forklifts and machinery, get planned around the right truck and the right access. More on that on our heavy equipment removal page.

What people say about working with us

★★★★★
Noble towing is now the only company that I will use. Service provided was professional and on time. We made arrangements for a certain time and Noble Towing was there on time and even confirmed 15-20 min beforehand. Noble Towing turned a stressful situation into something that was super easy to deal with. Highly recommend this service!

Nabil is one of the most cordial and respectful people I've ever met. We briefly chatted to the point you almost didnt want him to leave lol. I would 100% recommend him to anyone seeking the services his company has to offer.

Noble towing was amazing! They came the same day and took not only the car but anything we could fit in it. He was efficient, effective, professional and extremely personable. I would highly recommend them for any emergency or non emergency when it comes to towing. Thank you!!

About us, quickly

Is Noble Towing a towing company or a scrap car company?

Both, historically. We started with tow trucks and roadside calls. Today the business is buying and removing vehicles: scrap, junk, damaged and unwanted cars, trucks, SUVs and vans, plus heavy equipment. The towing is how we get them, and it's free.

Are you insured?

Yes. Noble Towing is fully insured, including the trucks and the drivers who load your vehicle.

Where are you located?

Our address is 4508 Main St, Vancouver, BC V5V 3R5. We're a pickup service, so we come to the vehicle. Call first rather than dropping in.

Do you still do roadside assistance?

No. We stopped doing boosts, lockouts, tire changes and fuel delivery so we could focus on buying vehicles. If you're stranded, call BCAA or your insurer's roadside line.

Want to talk to us?

Call, text or WhatsApp. A real person picks up, 7 days a week from 7am to 10pm.
