Need a tow in Watkinsville? Athena Towing covers Oconee County around the clock — flatbed towing, accident response, and full roadside service. Call us, tell us where you are, and we'll quote the job before a truck heads your way.
Watkinsville is the seat of Oconee County, just south of Athens down the Mars Hill Road and Macon Highway corridors. It's outside the city, so plan on a slightly longer ETA than an in-town Athens call — usually 45 minutes to an hour depending on exactly where you are and what the trucks are doing. If you're out on a rural stretch and not sure of the address, give us the nearest landmark or cross-road and we'll come to you.
We run light and medium-duty flatbed towing in Watkinsville — sedans, SUVs, pickups, box trucks, and small trailers — and we keep your wheels off the ground so the drivetrain stays protected the whole way. Not every call is a tow, though: a jump start is $65, a lockout or flat-tire change is $75, and we deliver fuel for $65 plus the cost of the gas. Long-distance hauls out of Watkinsville to Athens, Atlanta, or Augusta are flat-rate — just call for a number.
Because Watkinsville is outside Athens, the most useful thing you can do when you call is be specific about your location — a road name and the nearest cross-street or landmark beats a guessed address every time, especially out on the rural stretches. We'll quote the job and give you an honest ETA on the call, usually 45 minutes to an hour, and text you a link to confirm before the truck leaves. You'll get the driver's name when they're rolling. If you've been in a wreck, let us know whether law enforcement is on scene so we send the right equipment.
Watkinsville isn't the only spot we run to. If you're just outside it, we've probably got you covered too:

One call, one truck, one solution. Athens-based and locally owned. Drivers on-call day or night.
