3-Ton Commercial Truck Towing in Surrey & Metro Vancouver
Tow Jet Towing
3-Ton Truck Services
Every hour a commercial vehicle sits broken down, it costs money. Tow Jet Towing dispatches heavy-duty tow trucks 24/7 across Metro Vancouver for 3-ton class commercial vehicles — box trucks, cube vans, delivery trucks, utility trucks. We keep the job professional and move your vehicle to the right shop as fast as possible.
Your 3-ton cube van breaks down on production in the Bridgeview industrial area of Surrey near 128th Street. The van is loaded with equipment, it’s blocking a shared access driveway, and you have a 2:00 PM delivery in Richmond. Your regular mechanic is in Newton and the van won’t move.
You call Tow Jet Towing. We dispatch a heavy-duty rig rated for your van’s weight. Driver arrives in 38 minutes, assesses the van, confirms the load situation, and tows it to your Newton mechanic. The 2:00 PM delivery gets rescheduled. The van is at the shop by noon. That’s the best outcome available — and fast dispatch made it possible.

2. Provide location, vehicle type and size, and whether it’s loaded
3. We quote and dispatch appropriate heavy-duty equipment
4. Driver arrives, assesses — notes pre-existing condition and load status
5. Vehicle towed to your chosen commercial repair facility
6. Fleet account billing available for registered business clients
2. Cube vans and cargo vans (3-ton class).
3. Commercial delivery trucks.

A 3-ton commercial vehicle can gross at 6,000 kg or more. Standard passenger tow trucks are rated for vehicles in the 2,000–3,500 kg range. Using an undersized truck to tow a commercial vehicle overloads the tow truck's frame, rigging, and brakes — creating a road safety hazard and potential liability for the towing company. We dispatch equipment rated for the job.

Frequently Asked Questions — Heavy Truck Towing
Do you tow loaded commercial trucks?
In general, loaded vehicles create weight and balance complications. Call and describe the load — we’ll advise on whether unloading is required before towing.
How fast can you respond to a commercial breakdown?
Same average as all our calls: 30–45 minutes. Fleet accounts receive priority dispatch.
Can I set up a fleet account?
Yes. Call (604) 217-8300 to discuss fleet account terms — priority dispatch, simplified billing, and account management for businesses with multiple commercial vehicles.
Do you tow refrigerated trucks?
Yes — we tow refrigerated (reefer) units in the 3-ton class. Note: we do not maintain refrigeration during towing, so time-sensitive cold-chain cargo may need to be addressed separately before transport.
What if the truck is blocking traffic?
Call us immediately and call the non-emergency police line if it’s a traffic hazard. We’ll dispatch as fast as possible. If it’s on a highway, call 911 to report the hazard first.
Can you tow a commercial truck that's been in an accident?
Yes — accident recovery for commercial vehicles is part of our service. Describe the situation when you call.
Do you serve industrial areas in Surrey?
Yes — Bridgeview, Newton, Port Kells, and other Surrey industrial zones are within our regular service area.
What's the maximum weight you can tow?
Our heavy-duty equipment handles 3-ton class vehicles. For heavier class trucks, call and we’ll confirm current capacity.
