If you live around Oxon Hill, Arlington, or Springfield, you already know how unpredictable weather can be. One minute it’s sunny, and the next you’re stuck in a sudden downpour or a patch of heavy snow. Wet roads, mud, or icy shoulders can turn even a short trip into an unexpected emergency.
That’s when having access to a professional winching service makes all the difference.
When Weather Turns Against You
Rain, snow, and mud each create their own challenges:
Once your vehicle’s tires lose grip, getting out without help can cause more harm than good — spinning the wheels just digs you in deeper.
Why Winching Works Better Than Towing
Traditional Towing is great for moving a vehicle, but not for unsticking one. That’s where winching steps in. A winch applies controlled pulling power to gently lift or drag your vehicle back to solid ground without damaging it.
Rhino’s Wrecker Service offers expert winching across Northern Virginia and Maryland, using professional-grade equipment and trained operators. Whether your car slid off the road in Newington or got stuck in Tysons, our 24/7 recovery team can get you back on the road safely.
Common Local Scenarios
Every one of these situations calls for safe, professional winching rather than risky DIY recovery.
Trained Operators = Safe Recovery
Winching isn’t just about pulling hard — it’s about knowing how to control power, angle,
and cable tension.
Rhino’s experienced team uses protective straps, safety gear, and top-tier winches to recover
your vehicle without damage.
This expertise is especially important in tight neighborhoods like Annandale or Falls
Church, where space is limited and vehicle positioning matters.

Mr. Simone Bernateau
Absolutely amazing customer service!!!! Rhino Wrecker (Asad specifically) was able to move my wrecked vehicle to my final destination is such a timely manner. It literally took him less than 30 minutes to pick up my car & even assisted in driving my wrecked car into the designated spot. I would highly recommend his services & he definitely gained a long term customer. I'm so impressed!
Miss. Den Leftwich
My car was in a three car accident, this towing company came and picked up my car. By this being my first car accident this towing company walked me through all the steps and stayed beside me the whole time. They even sent me to an body shop that worked very well with fixing my car. I am very happy with the results of this process and I would recommend this service to anybody. Thank you so much Asad!!!!
Miss. Tara Cain
Car needed to be towed from Alexandria to Chantilly. Rhinos showed up in under 40 mins and provided updates as they neared my location. Ron and Brian took great care of the car--and me, as I had to ride out there with them. By the time I arrived at the dealership I was much more relaxed than when I'd first called. Grateful for Rhinos' fast, professional, and courteous service and seriously awesome drivers.
Mr. Jordan Blue
I needed a 16 ft pod moved(I live in an apartment complex and the pods company couldn't get it the next day after I unloaded it; the leasing agents said they needed it moved due to it blocking the garbage trucks picking up the trash). Mo and hector, responded to my call less than an hour. The customer service(operator) was amazing when I called, and helped assist. I highly suggest using their services if you need anything towed.
Mr. Gregory Jones
Can't beat Rhinos! It was 1am, attempted to jump, but car would not start. Called and provided Rhinoswrecker my location via app and they were there in less than 10 minutes. Very focused, car was ready for tow in about another 10 minutes. Both Mo and his assistant were very courteous. (Good to know in case wife and/or daughter need assistance). Payment transaction was completed with dispatch via phone. My new goto for roadside service.
Miss. Emilie Norris
I cannot express enough gratitude for the folks at Rhinos Wrecker Service. I was unexpectedly stranded on the side of the highway from a coolant leak and had to be at the airport in 1hr. Hector saw me out of sheer luck and stopped to help me out. I would have missed my flight without his help to get my car to the nearest repair shop. I have their card on me everywhere i go now, just in case!
