Around Lakewood
Lakewood Boulevard, Del Amo Boulevard, Candlewood Street and South Street carry most of the traffic, and Lakewood Center draws crowds most days. The I-605 runs along the east side of the city and the SR-91 sits just to the north. Lakewood is mostly residential, so many calls are dead batteries and cars that need to come out of a home garage — a job we bring dollies for.

Guardian is owner-operated. The person who answers your call is the same person who shows up, hooks your vehicle and drives it where it's going — nothing gets handed to a subcontractor. Soft straps on the wheels that need them, dollies when a car won't roll, and the patience to back a car out of a tight garage without touching a bumper.
“Guardian Towing was the only one that said they could handle the job. Their technician arrived within 45 minutes… used wheel dollies to safely move my car out of the garage.”— Jose R., Yelp
