About Us

Joe Ballor Towing, Inc. has been proudly serving customers since 1939.   We are a three generation family business.   We offer over 30 trucks to serve all your transportation needs.   In 2009 we celebrated our 70th anniversery.  

In 1939 Joseph Ballor purchased property in New Haven on the corner of Gratiot Avenue and New Haven Rd. Nearing the end of the Great Depression and the beginning of World War 2, times were challenging. The building was built in such a way so that Joseph, and his wife Elizabeth could live in the upstairs.   Joe Sr. earned a living by collecting and transporting scrap iron from the old New Haven foundry and from farms around the area.   He would transport the iron by truck to the railroad located runs through New Haven.   Joe Sr. would continue to process scrap iron through the 1980's.   More to come as we continue to update this site.

We are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.  

We offer damage free towing for all types of vehicles.   We also perform lock-outs, flat-tire changes, jump-starts, and winch-outs.
