Lee Gaines founded TGF Towing & Recovery LLC in October 2021, bringing more than two decades of leadership and operational excellence to the Virginia roads. Before launching TGF, Lee served honorably as a Departmental Leading Chief Petty Officer at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, where he honed his problem‑solving skills, attention to detail, and unwavering commitment to mission success.

​

Proudly based in Suffolk, VA, Lee built TGF with a vision: deliver fast, reliable, and respectful towing services tailored to the needs of his neighbors across Hampton Roads. Under his guidance, the company has earned a reputation for professionalism, integrity, and exceptional customer care—a reflection of his military values and deep connection to the community.

Whether it’s a late-night roadside rescue, a tire change on the fly, or heavy-duty hauling, Lee leads a team that treats each call with urgency and respect. When you choose TGF, you’re not just getting a tow—you're relying on Lee’s commitment to safety, service, and local excellence.
