Company
Carol Davis, Dispatcher
Our Owners: Tom Bertagnolli and his son Tommy are the owners of Double T Towing. They started the business March 1, 2002. Tom’s sister, Carol Davis, and her daughter, Tracy handle the dispatching duties 24/7; while brother Don handles daily salvage operations and drives a two-car carrier.
OUR STORY: Former drivers Tim Stalbaum, Ed Dougherty, and Greg Garcia joined with Tom and his family members to begin the Double T journey handling Heavy Duty and Light Duty towing, respectively. Ricky Oliver and Karl Collette, two of the area’s premier towers, joined with Tom in 2003.
Tom was very fortunate that Art Davis’ Truck City of Gary (Freightliner dealership) provided a base of operation and breakdown tows for Double T in the early years of business operations. In November of 2005, Double T moved into their new facility in Griffith, Indiana near the intersection of I-80/94 & Cline Avenue (Exit 5).
Double T’s facility is a state-of-the-art 7,000-square-foot split-face block building featuring heated floors, a two-story office, a paved and secured attached storage lot, and glass and panel bay doors (formerly Bert’s Shell Station, circa 1960).
Double T handles a large volume of commercial, truck and engine dealer, police, and private tows each month, and we would like to handle your towing needs as well. Tom, his staff, and drivers together have a combined 90 years of Heavy Duty Towing & Recovery experience in Northwest Indiana and the Chicago metropolitan area.
