towing service
Breakdown roadside assistance
A towing service is a business that transports disabled, illegally parked, or otherwise immobile vehicles using specialized trucks.
When your car breaks down, you call a towing service.
When you park where you shouldn't, a towing service might haul your car to an impound lot: I had to pay the towing service two hundred dollars to get my car back.
