Welcome to the official website of The Pennsylvania Towing Association. Our interest is in fostering and promoting the interest and welfare of towing, storage, and recovery operators in Pennsylvania.
This Association was started in 1986 when a group of towers saw the need for a group of people who cared about and would address the needs, wants, and issues of towers in Pennsylvania. Just twenty people put in $1000 each to start the towing association for our state. A second group of people – our founding members – donated $100 each. Those early members, several of whom formed our early steering committees, made this association possible.

Wow, it is hard to believe how quickly 2025 is going past. I hope it has been a successful and profitable year for you, and a safe one for your company. As you invest in the future of your company, I hope you are also ready to invest in the future of our industry by renewing or joining the Pennsylvania Towing Association.
The board members have been very busy working on behalf of our industry. We have been vocal about issues that concern our industry. And because we have been vocal, we have been invited to meetings that we were never included in before. Board members have met with state senators and representatives stating our views, concerns and support for various pieces of legislation. Because of that, we have been able to stop or severely delay legislation that would not have been beneficial for our industry. We will continue to battle against the “Enterprise” bill which wants to limit the amount of time that we can charge for storage. We have also stalled Senator Picozzi’s bill which would wreck chasing a criminal offense. WE ARE AGAINST WRECK CHASING! However, making it a criminal offense could open the door for honest towing companies being accused of wreck chasing. We have all been told by vehicle owners, “I didn’t call you to tow my car, I’m not going to pay the bill.” Like we told the senator, there are laws already in place, they need to be enforced.
