24/7 Towing in Gallup, NM: Who to Call When You're Stuck
When your car quits on you in Gallup, you don't want to wonder who's coming or what it'll cost. American Muffler & Towing has answered that call since 2012, and our tow line picks up 24/7. Whether you're stalled on Historic Route 66 downtown or stranded out by the I-40 exits, a real person answers and gets a truck rolling your way.
We're a family-owned shop right here in town at 827 N 9th Street, so help isn't coming from three counties over. We cover the whole Gallup metro and McKinley County.
What to expect when you call
Call (505) 863-5990 and you'll talk to a person, not a menu. Here's what we'll ask so we can help fast:
- Where you are — a cross street, a landmark, or the nearest exit (near Exit 20 for US-491/Miyamura, Exit 22, or Exit 26 all work)
- What you're driving and what happened
- Whether you're somewhere safe to wait
Then we quote the job up front.
No surprise fees, no "we'll sort it out when we get there." You'll know the price before the truck leaves the yard.
From there we'll give you an honest window on when to expect the truck, and if you're stuck somewhere unsafe on the road, we'll tell you how to stay clear of traffic while you wait.
Common Gallup breakdowns we see
Gallup weather and the miles of open road out here have a way of testing a vehicle. A few we handle all the time:
- Dead batteries in winter. Cold mornings drain a weak battery fast. Sometimes a jump start gets you going; sometimes you need a tow to the shop.
- Blowouts on Route 66. Potholes and summer heat are hard on tires. We'll change a flat roadside or haul you in.
- Overheating on the climbs. The grades around town push tired cooling systems past their limit.
- Lockouts and empty tanks. It happens to careful people too.
For the quick fixes, our roadside assistance crew can often get you back on the road without a tow at all.
More than a tow truck
Once you're back at 827 N 9th Street, we're a full shop. If your breakdown points to a bigger problem, our auto repair team handles brakes, diagnostics, transmissions, suspension, and AC. That means one honest crew from the roadside to the repair bay.

- The tow line answers 24/7 — night, weekend, holiday
