Why do trucks near Madison Centre end up needing heavy duty towing?
Madison Centre at 1901 Rosser Ave is an office building with retail tenants, listed by JLL as one block from Brentwood SkyTrain station and the mall. City archives show the complex was built on the site of the old Lougheed Hotel. Offices bring furniture movers, courier trucks and supply deliveries, and those trucks sometimes fail at the curb. When they do, our heavy duty towing in Brentwood team sends a wrecker matched to the truck.
The blocks around it are busy with food retail. JOEY, Save-On-Foods and Whole Foods are all close, and grocery trucks are large and often loaded. South on Dawson St, light-industrial buildings and the south portal of the CN Thornton Tunnel sit between Madison and Rosser avenues. Trucks working those buildings are the other big source of heavy calls in this pocket. The SOLO District heavy duty page covers the towers nearby on Rosser Ave and Skyline Drive.
Parking and loading details for Madison Centre are not published, so we plan to work from the street. We are local, open 24 hours, and we give the price first. For smaller vehicles on the same block, see light duty towing at Madison Centre.
Brent Gardens, the strata on Halifax St, lists Madison Centre as a nearby landmark, which shows how central this block is. Residents moving in and out of the buildings around it add moving trucks to the delivery traffic. Our Brent Gardens heavy duty page covers those three buildings, and the same street-level approach applies there.

Madison Centre heavy duty towing FAQ
Can you get a truck out of the Madison Centre parking?
Only if it can reach the street, or a wheel lift can bring it out. We don't send heavy wreckers below ground. Read how parkade tows work.
Is Dawson St a truck route?
We don't assume. Burnaby requires trucks over 11,800 kg to take the shortest route to the nearest designated truck route, and we plan every heavy tow that way.
Does the rail tunnel affect where you can tow?
The CN tunnel portal is on the south side of Dawson St between Madison and Rosser avenues. It is an active freight line, so we keep the wrecker and the truck well clear of railway property while we work.
Can you tow to a shop in another city?
Yes. Tell us the destination and we price it before the hookup. See all our towing services.
Do you also handle flat tires on big trucks?
Often, yes. Start with roadside assistance at Madison Centre.
