GTA 5 Online Tow Truck Services is one of the many businesses and best ways of earning money in Los Santos. Debuting with The Chop Shop DLC update of 2023, the Salvage Yard property allows players to run the Tow Truck Service as a side business. This has been one of the best additions to the title in a while as it lets you make money passively.
The Salvage Yard is available for purchase on the in-game website Maze Bank Foreclosures and costs about $1.5 million depending on the preferred location. For those interested in running this business, this article discusses everything you need to know about the Tow Truck business in GTA 5 Online.

- Tint - Minor cosmetic upgrade for the business property's interior.

How to unlock Tow Truck Services in GTA 5 Online?
Beginners can skip most of the upgrades available for Salvage Yard but must choose the Tow Truck upgrade. It unlocks the Tow Truck Services in GTA 5 Online that you can complete to earn between $40,000 and $60,000 usually. Those low on cash can get the Tow Truck Beater, as it is just a rusted variant of the regular truck.
This business requires you to tow a vehicle marked on the map back to your Salvage Yard, and that can be completed easily within a few minutes. However, you will only get paid once your staff has completed salvaging the towed vehicle.
This takes around 96 minutes, which is two in-game days, but buying the Staff upgrade reduces that to just one in-game day, which is 48 minutes. Therefore, you should definitely get this upgrade too if you can afford it.

GTA 5 Online Tow Truck Services payout:
Simply put, the GTA Online Tow Truck business is still worth getting in 2025 and players can easily make around $30,000-$40,000 (plus added weekly bonuses). It also increases the Salvage Yard reputation for the property owner and allows them to earn passive income as a side hustle.
Players should note that there's a two-minute cooldown between Two Truck Service missions since 2024's Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC update.
The GTA 5 Online Tow Truck Services is arguably the best thing ever added to the game, and it would be great if GTA 6 features something similar.
