Oil Country Towing

10/01/2026

Fifteen years ago today, Oil Country Towing opened for business in Leduc. We originally got our start with just two trucks, three employees, and a lot of determination.

Today, we have over 40 trucks, three locations, and more than 35 full-time employees. Looking back at where we started, we’re incredibly proud of how far we’ve come.

Behind that growth are years of hard work, late nights, tough recoveries, and people who showed up when it mattered.

To our employees, past and present: thank you for helping build Oil Country Towing. From our operators on the road to our dispatch, office, and shop maintenance teams, this milestone reflects your dedication.

To our customers and business partners: thank you for giving those first two trucks a chance and for continuing to trust us as we grew.

And to our families: thank you for supporting us through the long hours and everything this industry asks of us.

We’re proud to celebrate 15 years today, grateful to everyone who has been part of our story, and excited for what comes next.

Over May long weekend, Alberta RCMP increased patrols across the province, removing 122 impaired drivers from the road. The majority had failed roadside tests, while others were given warnings or suspended for having alcohol in their system.

Officers also issued more than 1,200 tickets, mostly for speeding, distracted driving and not wearing seatbelts.

Tragically, the weekend still saw 25 serious injury collisions and six fatalities.

“The Alberta RCMP will continue to have an enhanced presence on provincial roadways every long weekend,” says Sgt. Turnbull, Alberta RCMP Traffic. “Everyone has a role to play—choices like driving sober, staying focused, and buckling up can save lives.”
