Ramp, Aggregate & General Barge Towing

Benefit from three generations of marine towing experience

Harken Towing has a large fleet of coastal tugs and barges to get your cargo where it needs to go. We can tow chip barges from 2500 tons and aggregate barges up to 7000 tons , anywhere on the BC coast, and into northwest Washington and Alaska in the US.

Our dispatch department, tugboat crews, and office staff draw on three generations of industry experience and expertise to care for your cargo. When we tow your cargo, we treat it as it were our own.

Ideal location

Located close to major trucking routes, and at the confluence of the Pitt and Fraser Rivers, our facility provides fast, efficient access to multiple modes of transport, inland waterways, ports and coastal waters.

Our offices, including a loading/offloading facility, are situated just off the Mary Hill bypass and Pitt River Road at 1990 Argue Street. We are right on the Pitt River, with the Port Mann and Golden Ears bridges just minutes away. This provides trucks with easy access and eliminates the traffic issues associated with moving your cargo through Vancouver.

When you think about barging your cargo, think of Harken!
