Wonderful experience! One phone call took care of everything I needed and the price was very reasonable for an all wheel drive vehicle. The text communication keeping me informed of the status of my vehicle was very appreciated.

I was traveling from S. TX. to N. Il. when I got a flat tire and had no spare. Winks Towing was recommended to me by Discount Tire with whom I have my tires warrantied through. They said in their experience, the privately owned company had much better service than the larger corporate competition. I believe they were correct. Jordan was there within 10 minutes and had me and my car to Discount Tire within 20 minutes of my initial call. He was polite and a super pleasant young man! What can be a somewhat stressful situation was eased by Jordan's calm and confident demeanor. As a solo female traveler, feeling safe in the passenger seat of a vehicle with someone I've never met before but had to depend on in that moment made the me so much more comfortable. I can't give Winks & Jordan enough ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fast, friendly, and fairly priced. The owner, whose family has run the shop since 1963, knew exactly what he was doing. Even the Ford dealership recommends Winks for their trustworthy, top-notch service—and I completely agree!

I used Allstate roadside for the first time for my flat tire the night before and needed it towed 9 miles away to my mechanic. Allstate linked me up with Winks towing. From start to finish it was just so easy to work with them. Jordan was so nice on the phone. went from Bloomington to basically minonk to tow my Bronco 9 miles to benson 😂🙈 plus I had it locked and had my keys lol. So I’m sure I made things super easy 😅 thanks for helping with my first flat Jordan I appreciate you! You’re the best!

I had a great experience with Winks Towing! The service was fast, professional, and extremely helpful from start to finish. Jordan was the one I worked with—he was super responsive, kept me updated, and made a stressful situation much easier to deal with. Really appreciate the great customer service. Highly recommend!

They towed my son's car and wanted to charge him $500 for the tow the car was totaled then they said give them the title and another $150 They don't even need guns to rob you at this trash business Never do business with them They are the worst then my son posted a bad review and they told him to take it down and they will work with him because they didn't want the bad review posted obviously so they can keep robbing people

I just wanted to say thank you and biggest gratitude to the driver who rescued my elderly mom and niece today! She was stranded in downs at a gastation!! She called the first towing co who overpriced her just to move her car from a ditch 50ft to a gas station and wouldn't take her home !! So a huge thank you and God bless you 😊

Winks personnel are the best. Very professional. To me they went out of there way, above and beyond. They quickly came and towed my vehicle to the garage I requested. They asked me to leave the keys in the vehicle so they could put them in the drop box for me, saving me the hassle of driving there just for that reason. Thank you folks. I appreciate you all.

Highway robery. I was literally towed approx 1 mile and was charged 250 dollars. This was. Taking advantage of me by charging absorbent prices. Not very ethical. The driver pulled up and hooked up the car while me and my dog were still in the car and didn't even speak to me and price was not given until he dropped the car at the auto shop .

Wednesday was a day. Headed to the gym in my 76 Vette, hit the ATM and my steering breaks. Hagerty botched it…two hours in and I call WINKS…chat with Jordan and Matt and they say sit tight we got you. I call Hagerty cancel with them, inquire on reimbursement and high five Jordan for the service, I find them to be quality, kind and clean!!! Hagerty hellllo CALL Winks!! I appreciated a person not an 800# with an agent in a foreign country…sorry Statefarm if you’re going to serve Classic Car Owners, you need US based agents ….statefarm now owns Hagerty I’d grade the a D and F on their last two towing requests. Epic win for WINKs!!

We were in a bind. Our car broke down and we are in Bloomington from out of state for Christmas. We called Joe’s towing company first thing Monday AM. We were told our car would get picked up and towed to the dealership that day. Then, we got a call around 4:30 PM, letting us know it would get picked up first thing Tuesday. Tuesday morning we called Joe’s at 8:00 AM and were told it would be 9:00 AM pick up as their guys were just arriving at 8:00 AM. 10:00 AM came around so we called back. They told us that they had other priorities and couldn’t give us an ETA. So, we called Winks! Thank you!!!! Our car was picked up and towed within 30 minutes. This was a big deal as there is a time urgency to get the car to the dealership as the part needed to get ordered and the vehicle needed to get squeezed in prior to the Holiday. Wonderful professionalism and customer service.

If I could leave a 10-star review I would! I had a flat today on 55 S in Bloomington, two hours from home, but at the perfect spot for help! I first called the nearest tire repair place I found, but they stood me up and left me stranded for over an hour, even after telling me they would be right there. I finally gave up and called Winks and they were there within 15 mins and had me back on the road 10 minutes after that. The gentlemen who came to my rescue was polite and professional.

Worked with John over the phone to get my 2011 Kia Soul towed to Grosso’s garage. He was super nice and made getting the tow set up really easy and for a reasonable price. Jordan came in a timely manner with the tow truck and backed it right into my long very awkward driveway. You could tell he’s done this plenty of times. He was also very nice and made the process stress free. Paid cash and he texted me the invoice to send to my insurance. Appreciate Winks helping me out and providing a wonderful experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this place.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I flew into Bloomington airport December 14th. It was -24 and my ride couldn't pick me up and my battery was dead. While I was still on the plane I called and Kyle I believe his name was said he was working. He said he'd pick me up at the airport. He took me to my car and started it. He put my luggage in my car and cleaned my car off. I will forever be grateful. There are some very good people in this world. Thanks again!!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Winks to the rescue! Had my vehicle hit while in Chicago. Car was not drivable and wasn’t sure who in Chicago I could rely on to get the vehicle back to Bloomington. I reached out to Winks and the owner called me personally to discuss the situation. Within 24 hours my vehicle was back in Bloomington at the body shop. Wink’s is great local company with excellent customer service and communication to their clients

Thank you, John, for a prompt response and tow as we were stranded 50 miles from home with a major engine problem. John supplied expert hookup and transport with efficiency, depositing our car in just the right place and even delivering me to my home with kind consideration! Very grateful!

This was our Tuesday morning Dirk and I… We had a front drivers side tire blow on our ZO6 Corvette this morning. I was traveling behind him in our truck when this occurred. We got off immediately, on the Veterans Parkway exit ramp. We parked the vette and we came home to figure out our next strategy. We called Wink’s Towing and spoke to John. We had an estimate and when we arrived back to meet John, he was already there.. Dirk said “He’s already there Trace”. He was there before we got back to it . First thought was wow that was quick. John explained how he was going to tow the Vette He dollied the vette’s back wheels (I called them training wheels) and that made Dirk confident and calmer and extremely pleased with Johns towing of the Z06 to our home. He earned Dirk’s trust and respect and we are so thankful for everything!! Your business card is in our insurance card holders in both vehicles now. We 100% know who to call in the event we need another tow!! Thank you Winks Towing. Sincerely Dirk & Tracy Bloomington, IL.
