Not an App. A Tow Company.
This is the whole difference, and it is worth being blunt about. The companies outbidding us on search ads are mostly dispatch networks. They own no trucks. They employ no drivers. They are a call centre with a lead-routing algorithm.
We Own Every Truck
Every wheel-lift, flatbed, medium wrecker, Class 8 wrecker, rotator, Landoll trailer and zero-degree deck on our fleet page is ours. We bought it, we maintain it, and one of our drivers is behind the wheel. Nothing is brokered.
Three Generations, Same Yards
Founded in Whittier in 1952. Still family-owned, now in the third generation, still dispatching out of the Whittier yard. The phone numbers haven't changed either. That continuity is not nostalgia — it's why our drivers know which exits back up, which structures have clearance, and which corridors need which truck.
A Real Dispatcher Answers
You get a person who can tell you what truck is closest and give you a real ETA, not a queue and not an app notification. If we can't get there fast we'll say so rather than take the job and leave you waiting.
Agencies Call Us
We are not a lead-generation platform. When you call Hadley you get a Hadley driver in a Hadley truck — your job is never auctioned to whoever bid lowest, and the operator who arrives knows how to work with an officer on a live scene.
Every Truck Class Under One Roof
Most operators can serve one slice of the market. We run the full ladder, which means we're not sending the only truck we own and hoping it's enough. See heavy-duty towing and rotator recovery for the end of that ladder most companies never reach.
Insurance Approved
We're on every major carrier's approved-vendor list. Covered tows are billed directly to the insurer and cost you nothing — see insurance-covered towing.
Ten Branches, One Number
Ten yards across LA County, Orange County and the Inland Empire. One call to (562) 692-3793 routes the closest available truck out of any of them.
Why Hadley
- We own every truck. Hadley drivers, Hadley equipment, Hadley dispatch. Not an app, not a dispatch network — your call is never farmed out to a stranger.
- Family-owned since 1952. Three generations, the same yards, the same phone numbers. See why that matters.
- We show up with the right iron. The truck we send is sized to the job, because a job worked with the wrong equipment costs more than it saves.
- Insurance approved. Covered tows are billed directly to the carrier and cost you nothing — see insurance-covered towing.
