Towing & Repair in Knox, IN
24/7 Towing & Mobile Diesel Repair in Knox, Indiana
Knox is the Starke County seat on US-35, about 35 miles northeast of Rensselaer, and Bass Lake keeps the whole area humming every summer with boats, campers, and the breakdowns that follow them. Courthouse traffic, lake traffic, and farm traffic converge here — and our wreckers run US-35 often enough to know every mile of it.
Redline Towing & Repair is a genuine 24/7 operation: light and medium-duty towing, repossessions, mobile diesel repair, and complete in-shop truck and trailer repair at 9388 IN-114 in Rensselaer. Knox drivers dial 219-964-2869 and talk to someone local who'll give a straight ETA.
Towing in Knox and around Bass Lake
Summer around Bass Lake is our busy season in Starke County: overheated tow vehicles, trailer tire blowouts on US-35, boats stranded at the ramp, and campers that never made it to the site. We tow the vehicle and recover the trailer in the same call, so a ruined Saturday doesn't become a ruined week.
The rest of the year brings the usual county-seat mix — commuter breakdowns, work trucks down on the job, and repossessions handled with discretion and full documentation. Anything needing shop work comes back to Rensselaer, where our technicians handle truck and trailer repair in-house.
- 24/7 response through Bass Lake's summer season and all year
- Boat trailers, campers, and RVs recovered with the tow vehicle
- US-35 breakdown, blowout, and accident recovery
- Repossessions performed quietly with complete records
