Make The Responsible Choice
Fast. Friendly. Affordable.
Tow Your Car & Driver Home From The Party
Had a few drinks? We can drive you home from the bar and bring your vehicle too, without risking the lives of others, your driving record, or an accident. Hand us your keys, relax, and let our Calgary tow truck operators take it from here.
Whether you are at the dentist, the optometrist, or the bar, there are many situations where you simply should not be driving. Red Nose towing is the responsible choice: you get home safe and your car ends up in your own driveway, not left behind overnight or driven when you are not fit to.
Call (587) 885-2326 to book ahead or on-demand. Stuck for a different reason tonight? We also run roadside assistance in Calgary and 24/7 emergency towing.

Red Nose Towing: A Safe Ride Home After a Night Out
A night out should not end with a hard decision in the parking lot. When you have been drinking, call us instead. There is no judgment and no lecture, just a safe way for you and your car to get home together.
Your vehicle is loaded and strapped down with care, so it arrives with no damage. That is what makes Red Nose towing one of the simplest tows we do: no winching out of a ditch, no roadside repair, just a careful lift and a safe trip home.
If we spot a flat or a dead battery while we are there, we can sort it on the spot with tire service or a battery boost. Need a full lift instead? See our flatbed towing in Calgary.
How Red Nose Towing Works in Calgary

Call us
When you are not in a state to drive, call (587) 885-2326 and we send an operator your way.
We come to you
We arrive at the bar, the party, the event, or the appointment, wherever you are in Calgary.
Home together

Cheaper Than a DUI: What Impaired Driving Costs in Alberta
People often think a service like this is expensive, but it is one of the easiest, most affordable tows we provide, and it costs a tiny fraction of what impaired driving does. Under Alberta’s Immediate Roadside Sanctions, a first failed test (0.08 or over) brings serious penalties on the spot:
Licence suspension
An immediate 90-day licence suspension, followed by a further year on an ignition interlock.
Vehicle seizure
A 30-day vehicle seizure, with towing and storage at your own cost.
$1,000 fine
A $1,000 fine, plus mandatory course fees.
Even a "warn"
A reading of 0.05 to 0.08 still means a 3-day suspension, a 3-day seizure, and a $300 penalty.
On top of that come higher insurance rates for years, possible legal fees, and the stress of it all. A safe ride home is cheaper than lawyers, court, and a tow out of the impound lot. See our Calgary towing cost guide for what a normal tow runs, and how insurance billing works.
Avoid a Drinking and Driving Charge in Calgary
One short drive is all it takes. A single checkstop or a minor swerve can turn a good night into a licence suspension, a seized vehicle, and months of fallout. Drinking and driving is simply not worth the gamble when a safe ride home is one phone call away.
Picture the two outcomes. In one, your car is hooked behind an enforcement tow and hauled to an impound lot you pay to get it out of. In the other, your car rides home on our flatbed and is parked safely in your driveway while you sleep it off. We would much rather give you the second one.
Already had your vehicle towed or impounded after a rough night? We can still help you get it back, and our towing cost guide and accident recovery pages explain the next steps.
Fighting Drinking and Driving
It is not only about a night at the bar. There are many situations where you should not get behind the wheel, and we are glad to help in every one of them:
Parties and events
Holiday parties, weddings, and work events where you have had a few drinks.
A night out
A night at the pub, a concert, or a game that ran long.
After appointments
A dentist visit or an eye exam that left you sedated or with dilated eyes, or driving without your prescription glasses.
Unfit to drive
When medication, exhaustion, or an injury after sports leaves you unfit to drive.
We know the temptation to rush home to start dinner or tend to the kids. Calgary Towing gets you home quickly, and more importantly safely, when we drive you and your vehicle. If your car simply will not start when it is time to leave, call for roadside assistance instead.
Red Nose Towing for Holiday Parties, Stampede and New Year’s Eve
Calgary knows how to celebrate, and the biggest nights are exactly when safe rides get hard to find. New Year’s Eve, the Calgary Stampede, long weekends, office Christmas parties, weddings, and graduations all pack the roads with people who should not be driving home.
Book your Red Nose tow in advance for those peak nights and it is one less thing to think about. Prefer to keep your plans loose? Call us on-demand and we come to you, anywhere in Calgary and the surrounding area, any day of the year.
While volunteer programs like Operation Red Nose run only during the holiday season, our safe ride home service never closes. For late-night breakdowns and lockouts on the same trip, we also offer 24 hour towing and car lockout service.

Red Nose Towing in Calgary: FAQ
Common questions about our safe ride home service in Calgary. Ready to book? Call (587) 885-2326.
What is Red Nose towing in Calgary?
Red Nose towing provides safe, alternative transportation for impaired drivers by moving their vehicle home instead of leaving it parked or driven unsafely. It is commonly used during holidays, events, and late nights in Calgary.
When do people usually need Red Nose towing services?
Red Nose towing is often used after social events, parties, weddings, corporate functions, or holiday celebrations when driving is not a safe option.
How does Red Nose towing help prevent impaired driving?
By transporting both the driver and their vehicle safely, Red Nose towing helps reduce the risk of impaired driving, roadside penalties, and accidents.
Is Red Nose towing different from standard towing services?
Yes. Red Nose towing focuses on responsible vehicle relocation rather than breakdown recovery, helping drivers get themselves and their vehicle home safely in one service.
Is Red Nose towing available late at night in Calgary?
Yes. Red Nose towing services are typically requested late at night or during peak event hours, making after-hours availability especially important.
Can Red Nose towing be arranged during holidays or special events?
Yes. Demand for Red Nose towing increases during holidays such as New Year’s Eve, Stampede, and long weekends when safe ride options are essential.
What types of vehicles can be transported using Red Nose towing?
Red Nose towing can be used for cars, SUVs, pickup trucks, and some light-duty vehicles, depending on vehicle condition and access.
Is Red Nose towing safer than leaving my car parked overnight?
In many cases, yes. Red Nose towing reduces the risk of parking tickets, theft, vandalism, or the need to retrieve the vehicle later.
Can Red Nose towing be combined with roadside assistance?
If minor issues are discovered during pickup, roadside assistance in Calgary may help address battery or tire concerns before transport.
Does Red Nose towing require advance booking?
Red Nose towing can be requested on short notice, though availability may be limited during peak demand times. Calling ahead helps ensure timely service.
How does your safe ride home service work?
You call us, we come to you, and our operator gets both you and your vehicle home safely, so your car is in your driveway the next morning. You can book in advance or call on-demand.
How much does a safe ride home cost?
It is one of the most affordable services we offer, and a tiny fraction of the cost of impaired driving. Call (587) 885-2326 for a free quote based on your pickup and drop-off.
Can I book in advance for a party or event?
Yes. Book a time ahead for New Year’s Eve, the Stampede, a wedding, or a holiday party, or call on-demand when you need us.
Is this service only during the holidays?
No. Volunteer programs like Operation Red Nose run during the holiday season, but our paid safe ride home service is available all year, any day of the week.
Do you drive my own car home?
Yes. We get you and your own vehicle home together, so there is no need to go back for your car the next day.
Is it really cheaper than a DUI?
Yes, by a wide margin. An Alberta first-offence impaired charge means a licence suspension, a 30-day vehicle seizure, a $1,000 fine, higher insurance for years, and possible legal fees. A ride home costs a fraction of that.
Do I have to be at a bar to use it?
Not at all. We help after work events, weddings, concerts, medical appointments, or any time you are not fit to drive.
What areas do you serve?
