24/7 TOWING IN
COSTA MESA, CA

Costa Mesa is our coastal Orange County dispatch. The 405 runs straight through it, the 55 ends at the 73 just south, and PCH curls down into Newport Beach minutes from our branch — meaning this yard covers a huge chunk of beach-side OC. We respond fast to incidents on the 405 between Long Beach and Irvine, the 55 between the 22 and PCH, the 73 toll road, and the entire PCH corridor from Huntington into Newport Coast. Coverage also runs inland to Fountain Valley, Westminster, and the Irvine business corridor. Light, medium, and heavy-duty work from this branch with backup from Whittier HQ when the job needs more truck. Fast response on I-405, SR-55, SR-73, PCH (SR-1), I-5. Light, medium, and heavy-duty trucks dispatched from Costa Mesa, with backup from Whittier HQ when the job needs more truck.

Towing in Costa Mesa

If your car dies on PCH between Huntington and Newport, this is the closest Hadley. Hadley Tow has been dispatching trucks across Southern California since 1952 — three generations of the same family running the same yards, the same trucks, and the same phone numbers.

Light & Flatbed Towing in Costa Mesa

Most of what we do every day is light-duty towing — passenger cars, pickups, motorcycles, crossovers, the daily-driver fleet that breaks down across Costa Mesa. We run modern wheel-lift and flatbed trucks for Costa Mesa, with the flatbed option chosen any time a vehicle is low-clearance, all-wheel-drive, fresh out of an accident, or worth more than a couple of hundred thousand dollars. Most flatbed and wheel-lift calls inside Costa Mesa clear in 10–25 minutes.

Heavy-Duty Towing & Rotator Recovery in Costa Mesa

Heavy-duty work in Costa Mesa runs on our Class 8 wreckers and rotators. Tractor-trailer rollovers on the 405, 55, 73, jackknife recoveries, RV breakdowns, motorhome tows, bus moves, box-truck non-runners, and load-shift uprights are routine work. We run 50 and 75-ton rotator wreckers and coordinate directly with CHP and local agencies on freeway scenes. If the vehicle is heavier than a passenger car or the recovery is more complex than a hookup-and-go, this is the truck that comes.

Accident Towing & Insurance Coverage in Costa Mesa

After-accident towing in Costa Mesa is something our dispatchers handle every day. We arrive fast, clear the scene, photograph the damage on intake, and tow direct to the body shop, dealership, or storage yard you choose. We're on the approved-vendor list for every major insurance carrier — so when your policy or the at-fault driver's liability covers the tow, we bill the carrier directly and the work is free to you. Hand the responding officer or your adjuster our number — (714) 542-7241 — and we'll handle the rest.

Roadside Assistance in Costa Mesa

Sometimes you don't need a tow — you need help. Costa Mesa roadside calls go to our roadside trucks: jump packs, replacement batteries, lockout tools, fuel cans (gas and diesel), tire changes, and air-up service. Most Costa Mesa roadside calls clear in 10–25 minutes. Locked out at home? Dead battery in a Newport Beach parking lot? Out of fuel on the 405, 55, 73? One call, real ETA.

Equipment Transport & Landoll Service in Costa Mesa

For non-rolling equipment, forklifts, skid steers, mini-excavators, scissor lifts, and any cargo that won't go on a wheel-lift or flatbed, our Landoll trailers are how we move it through Costa Mesa. Detach trailers handle the loads other trucks can't, and our drivers are CHP-certified for oversize freight. Construction sites, equipment yards, and shop-to-shop deliveries — all routine.

Private Property Impound & Vehicle Storage Near Costa Mesa

Property managers, HOAs, retail centers, and office parks across Costa Mesa and Huntington Beach use Hadley for tow-away enforcement. Our service includes posted signage, scheduled patrols, non-consensual tows of unauthorized vehicles, and full state-compliant chain-of-custody on every move. Vehicles are stored at our gated, camera-monitored yards with documented intake and release. To set up a property contract for a Costa Mesa-area lot, call (714) 542-7241.

Zero-Degree Exotic & Luxury Transport in Costa Mesa

For Ferraris, Lamborghinis, McLarens, Porsches, classic cars, and any low-clearance build that won't survive a normal flatbed angle, we run zero-degree exotic flatbeds — purpose-built trailers with deck angles low enough that vehicles with under 4 inches of ground clearance load cleanly. Common destinations from Costa Mesa: dealer service bays, body shops, racetracks, transport containers, private storage, and private residences across SoCal.
