Towing in Regina Beach, SK: Lake Traffic and Cottage Calls
For towing in Regina Beach, SK, Regina Signature Towing & Recovery sends a flatbed or heavy duty truck to Last Mountain Lake on Highway 54, any hour, with the price quoted first and a driver who knows what a hot lakeside weekend does to the roads.
Regina Beach is a lakeside resort town of 1,292 people (2021), up about 13% in five years, on the south end of Last Mountain Lake and Highway 54. The population swells in summer with cottagers and day visitors, so our calls here run from beach-lot breakdowns in July to dead batteries at the closed-up cottages in January.
A hot Sunday afternoon on the beach ends with a long line of cars on Highway 54. A vehicle that overheats or blows a tire in that line blocks everyone behind it.
Call us right away, pull as far to the shoulder as you safely can and keep passengers well off the road. We can load a trailer, tow the car or do both.
Regina Beach is a longer run, about 40 kilometres northwest, so the per-kilometre charge applies. Typical jobs look like this:

We think trailer tires deserve a look before the 40 kilometre drive to the lake. Last July we towed 6 boat trailers off Highway 54, and 4 of them had a tire problem.
Roads and Surfaces Around Regina Beach
Highway 54 and Highway 11
Highway 54 is the road into town, close to where Highway 11, the Regina to Saskatoon road, meets the Qu'Appelle Valley. Trucks and cottage traffic share it, and on a long weekend it moves slowly. A broken-down trailer on the narrow shoulder needs a driver who sets out cones early.
Sand and Soft Shoulders
The lakefront sand and the soft ground near the beach lots catch wheels. A car that went a few feet off the pavement can be stuck to the axle. We carry long cable and recovery boards, and we plan a pull so it does not make the hole deeper.
Summer Weekends vs Winter Cottages
In summer our calls here are beach lots, boat trailers and overheated vehicles. In winter they flip to cottages and cabins with dead batteries and snowed-in driveways. Tell the dispatcher the address or lot and whether the road is plowed.
Last Mountain Lake Trailers and Wind
Trailers near Last Mountain Lake catch the wind, especially a boat on a bunk trailer on Highway 54. A blown tire or a snapped hitch means a heavy duty tow, not a roadside fix. Tell us the trailer type, the weight and the plate on the tow vehicle, and we will plan the recovery and keep storage in mind if the unit cannot move that day.
Who We Tow For in Regina Beach
Cottagers with trailers, boats and campers
Year-round residents with winter battery trouble
Day visitors with a flat tire or an overheated car
Drivers stopped on Highway 54 or Highway 11
Coming from the south or east? We also serve Qu'Appelle, about an hour away on the Trans-Canada.
Regina Beach is about 40 kilometres northwest of Regina, so a truck usually arrives in about 45 to 55 minutes in good weather. Summer weekend traffic or a winter storm can add time, and the dispatcher gives you a practical estimate on the call.
Can you tow a boat trailer or camper from the lake?
Yes. We send a heavy duty truck for loaded boat trailers and large campers. Tell us the length, the weight and whether the brakes release, and we will plan the lift. We can also tow the vehicle at the same time.
Do you service cottages in winter?
Yes. Winter calls mostly mean dead batteries, snowed-in driveways and cars buried at a closed cottage. Tell us the address, whether the road is plowed and what the vehicle is doing, and we will bring a booster, a winch or both.
What does a tow from Regina Beach to Regina cost?
A flatbed tow from Regina Beach to a Regina shop commonly runs $240 to $330 plus GST, depending on where it goes. We quote the total on the phone 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.
