About Us

The Pennsylvania Towing Association (PTA) was established in 1986 when a group of towing operators saw the need for an organization dedicated to the towing industry in Pennsylvania — one that would address business owner’s needs and issues. The PTA was created as a resource and support group to foster and promote the interest and welfare of towing, storage and recovery operators in Pennsylvania.

In the beginning, just 20 people put in $1,000 each to establish the PTA. A second group of people – our founding members – donated $100 each. Those early members, several of who formed our early steering committees, made this association possible.
