Towing in Emerald Park, SK: Business Parks and Highway 1
For towing in Emerald Park, SK, Regina Signature Towing & Recovery sends light, medium and heavy duty trucks about nine kilometres east from Regina, for homes, shops and the business parks along Highway 1, day or night.
Emerald Park is a community of about 1,500 people with more than 130 businesses in Emerald Park, the Great Plains Industrial Park and the Butte Business District. That mix means our calls are not all family cars. A lot are delivery vans, pickups with trailers and service trucks that cannot afford to sit.
A stalled truck in a business park costs the owner money every hour. Tell the dispatcher your location, the vehicle and whether it is loaded, and ask for the heavy or medium duty truck by name.
We would rather send a bigger truck than leave a loaded van half lifted. If it is a repeat problem, we can tow straight to your shop and wait while they look at it.
Emerald Park is about nine kilometres east of Regina, so tows from here are short, but they still sit outside the city limits and carry a hook-up fee plus a per-kilometre rate. Typical jobs look like this:

We've seen a stalled cube van cost a business a whole morning, so we keep 2 medium duty trucks free when the forecast looks rough. Our Emerald Park calls ran to about 18 last year. Plan ahead. When a delivery van with a full load dies at 6 a.m., the best thing you can do is call us before you call the customer, because the truck is the part with a lead time.
Getting Around Emerald Park
The Highway 1 Corridor
Highway 1 runs straight through here, and it is busy with trucks. A breakdown on the shoulder is a real hazard, so we send a truck with strong amber lights and a driver who sets up cones. If your car dies on the highway, pull as far over as you can and stay out of the traffic lane.
Business Parks and Parking Lots
Lots in the Great Plains Industrial Park and the Butte Business District often have tight turns and parked trucks. We send a driver who looks the site over before backing in, because a boom swing near a parked trailer is how paint gets scratched.
Trails and Winter Parking
The White Butte Trails offer free hiking and cross-country skiing, so cars sit in trail lots for hours in the cold. A battery that was fine on the drive out can be dead on the way back. We boost at the trailhead or tow you home.
What We Ask Before a Medium Duty Tow
For a van or truck we ask for the gross vehicle weight rating, the most the vehicle can weigh loaded, and whether a ramp or lift gate is in the way. At the scene the driver sets wheel chocks, puts out cones and talks you through each step. A few questions on the phone save everyone an hour in a business park lot.
Who We Tow For in Emerald Park
Business owners with vans, pickups and trailers
Families driving all-wheel-drive crossovers and trucks
Skiers, hikers and walkers with a dead battery after a trail visit

Heading east? We also serve Pilot Butte, which is next along the same corridor, and the same dispatcher takes both calls.
Emerald Park is about nine kilometres east of Regina, so a truck usually arrives in around 20 to 30 minutes in good weather. Busy highway traffic, storms or a closure add time, and the dispatcher gives you a realistic estimate on the phone.
Can you tow a delivery van or small truck from a business park?
Yes. We send a medium duty truck for cube vans, one-tons and small buses. Tell us the weight and whether it is loaded, and we choose the right equipment and a driver who checks the yard for space first.
Do you boost batteries at trailheads?
Yes. A boost at a parking lot such as a trail lot usually costs about $65 to $75 plus GST. Send the lot name or a map pin. If the battery is dead for good, we tow you home or to a shop.
Is a tow from Emerald Park to Regina expensive?
A short flatbed tow from Emerald Park to a Regina shop commonly lands between $120 and $170 plus GST, because it is a short run but outside city limits. The dispatcher quotes the exact price before the truck leaves.

What our customers say
Winch out
Slid into the ditch on a grid road past Lumsden in the first snow. The driver found us off a text pin, hooked on and had the truck back on the gravel in about fifteen minutes. No lecture, just a pull and a thumbs up.
Brenda T.Lumsden
Flatbed towing
My Subaru is all-wheel drive and the first company I called wanted to drag it on two wheels. These guys brought a flatbed without me asking. Price was exactly what the dispatcher said on the phone.
Kyle D.White City
Accident towing
Fender bender on Victoria Avenue at rush hour. They cleared the car off the road quickly, took it to my body shop, and the driver waited with me until my ride showed up.
Priya S.Regina
Medium duty towing
Our delivery van quit at 5 a.m. with a full load. A medium duty truck was there before the shop opened and we lost one morning, not the whole day.
Marcel L.Emerald Park
Battery boost
Dead battery at minus 29 in a grocery store lot. The boost took ten minutes and the driver told me my battery was on its last legs, which saved me a second call.
Janelle W.Regina
Junk car removal
Hauled an old Buick off our acreage that had sat since my dad passed. Free pickup, no paperwork headaches, and the driver carried the plates in for me. It was a relief.
Regina Signature Towing & Recovery is a small crew that answers at 3 a.m. the same way it answers at noon. We tell you the price first, load your vehicle the way the manufacturer wants it moved, and drop it where you say. Send your location or call and a driver is on the way.
