Council Bluffs, Iowa

Repairs and towing.One shop. One number.

Most drivers end up calling two places when something goes wrong: someone to move the car, then someone to fix it. On Richland Drive you call once and A2Z handles both ends.

Why call A2Z

Council Bluffs drivers,
one number to remember

Tow and repair together

Most shops cannot come and get you, and most tow drivers cannot fix anything. A2Z does both, so there is no handover to fall through.

Actually local

The shop is on Richland Drive, not a call centre in another state routing your job to whoever is cheapest that day.

The price comes first

You hear the number before the work starts. If we find something else once it is open, that is a phone call, not a bigger bill at the end.

Plain answers

What is wrong, what it takes to fix, and what happens if you leave it. No lecture, no upsell you did not ask about.

Common questions

Before you call

Can you tow it and fix it?

Yes, that is the whole point of the shop. We bring the vehicle in on our own truck and the repair starts from there, so you are dealing with one company instead of two.

Do you work on my make?

We handle most makes and models. If yours needs something we do not take on, we will tell you straight away rather than keep the car sitting.

Will I know the price first?

Yes. You get the number before any work begins, and if something else turns up once it is apart, that is a phone call to you, not a surprise on the invoice.

How far will you tow?

Local runs around Council Bluffs are routine, and longer hauls can be arranged. Call with the pickup and drop-off and we will quote it.

My car will not start. Do I need a tow?

Not always. A jump start or a roadside fix sorts plenty of no-starts. Describe what it is doing when you call and we will bring the right thing out.

What are your opening hours?

Closed Mondays. Tuesday to Friday we are open from midday until 11:30 PM, and on Saturday and Sunday from 9 AM to 5 PM. Towing call-outs are arranged by phone on (712) 435-9748.

One call. Moved and mended.

Whether it needs a tow, a diagnosis or both, start with the same number.
