Where does light duty towing happen in Buchanan West?
Buchanan West is the stretch on the north side of Lougheed Hwy between Gilmore Ave and Madison Ave, right across from Gilmore station. The City's Buchanan West master plan notice bounds it by Lougheed, Gilmore, Halifax St and Madison Ave or Douglas St. Our Brentwood light duty towing team works it every day.
For now it is surface lots, not towers. White Spot, Fitness Town, Club16, Cactus Club Cafe, Sleep Country, Staples and the Executive Suites Hotel all front Lougheed with their own parking. A car that will not start after a workout or a dinner is the classic call. These are open lots, so a wheel lift can usually reach the car easily. For AWD cars, see flatbed towing in Buchanan West.
Change is coming. The plan allows up to 12 towers and about 6,000 homes over many years, as DailyHive reports. The first proposal, at 4141 Lougheed Hwy, would replace the Fitness Town warehouse. As lots close for construction, we will adjust where we load. If the problem is a flat or a dead battery, Buchanan West roadside assistance may be enough.
Traffic is the other factor. This block of Lougheed faces Gilmore Place and Gilmore station across the road, and drivers turn in and out of the lots all day. A car that stalls in a through lane needs to be moved quickly and carefully. Tell us which direction you were heading and the nearest business, and we will set up on the safe side. Our Brentwood towing services hub lists everything else we do here.
How does a light duty tow from a Buchanan West parking lot go?
Open lots make this one of the simpler tows in Brentwood.
- 01
Name the lot
Tell us the business, like the White Spot or Staples lot, and which row you are in. If you are at the hotel, add the entrance closest to your stall. - 02
Check the car
We ask about the drivetrain, the keys and whether the car rolls. - 03
Confirm the price
You hear it before we hook up. Then we come in off Lougheed or Gilmore. - 04
Out to the road
We load away from the lot entrance so other drivers can still get in and out.
