LJ's Towing & Transport

What makes our services so great?
Formerly from Calgary, Alberta, Lawrence Jonker has had experience running 12 tow trucks at one time. Now, based out of the Shuswap area in BC for his love of vehicle assistance and boating, he uses that experience to provide quality services to any vehicle owner in need.

While we are more than happy to offer great local towing, we really love transporting. Transporting is one of our specialties we not only excel at, but we have also been growing.

Learn About The Owner/Operator of LJ’s Towing & Transport

I was born and raised on a farm just outside of Calgary, Alberta. Animals never really interested me. If you didn’t put fuel in it, it just wasn’t my kind of thing.

I did a few years apprenticing as a mechanic, then, I got into carpentry. One day at a coffee shop a friend offered to sell me his tow truck. That’s what started it all. In the years after that, I built the towing company up to 12 trucks in the city of Calgary. We ran out of Calgary for years.

However, I have always had a boat fascination. I love boats and still do. I used to come out to the Shuswap area of BC every summer for holidays. Eventually, I sold the company in Calgary and moved to Chase, BC. It was supposed to be a semi-retirement, but that didn’t work. 

We transport carriers that haul cars from Calgary, Edmonton, all over the interior, and out to Vancouver. Because of my love for towing, I also have five local trucks and employ five people. I love my life here, and my job will be around for a long time.
