About Harriman Towing

Home-grown towing in Harriman, TN, covering Roane County and the towns around it every hour of the day

Who We Are

Harriman Towing is a locally run towing and roadside outfit working out of Roane County, where the Emory and Clinch rivers come together. We cover Harriman and the county end to end — the US-27 corridor, the I-40 interchange at Exit 347, out toward Rockwood and Midtown, and along the Watts Bar Lake shoreline. No national franchise sits behind us; the folks answering the phone are your neighbors, and we treat that as something to live up to.

Dial our number and a live voice answers — there is no phone tree standing between you and help. The drivers who roll out know these county roads by heart and turn up prepared to work, whatever the hour, whatever the weather, however awkward the job turns out to be.

Jake Rhodes

Owner & Lead Operator

Jake has better than ten years of recovery and roadside work under his belt around Roane County — plain flatbed runs along I-40 and TN-29 clear up to the tough pulls on the grade climbing toward Rockwood. He started Harriman Towing after watching what the area lacked: a wrecker outfit that answered the phone, showed up quick, and gave an honest price. Every driver on the crew trains under Jake, and he holds all of them to that same standard.

Our Commitment to Roane County

This is home. These are the roads we drive every single day. When a storm blows through and vehicles start sliding off US-27 into the ditches, we are out in the thick of it — not tracking it from some distant call center. Being based right here means quicker arrivals and drivers who genuinely understand the ground: the US-70 climb up Walden Ridge, the lanes around Watts Bar Lake, and the crush of I-40 traffic through Exit 347.

We have hauled cars and trucks out of flooded creek crossings and off tight mountain switchbacks alike. Wherever you end up stuck inside our coverage area, odds are one of our drivers has already worked that very stretch of road.

What Sets Us Apart

Towing carries a bad name in a lot of towns, and we are not blind to why. Folks get quoted one figure and billed another, or they sit two hours waiting on a driver who swore he was "just around the corner." We put Harriman Towing together on purpose to run the other way:

Straight estimates, given first. You learn the cost before we ever hook on. No mystery fees, no fuel surcharge slipped in when we set you down.

Arrival times you can trust. We quote an honest ETA right on the call, and if anything shifts we ring you back. You are never left guessing where the truck is.

Your vehicle gets handled like our own. Loading a fresh-off-the-lot SUV onto the flatbed or dragging a worn-out beater from a ditch, we use the correct method and the correct gear either way. A tow that leaves damage behind is never okay with us.
