Stuck right now? Do these three things
- Get safeOn I-80, I-680, I-480 or the Kennedy Freeway, pull as far right as you can, hazards on. If it's safe to exit, stand behind the guardrail, never between cars.
- Send your locationUse the request form's "Use my location" button, or give the nearest exit, mile marker or cross street.
- Tell us what's wrongWon't start, flat, overheated, crash, stuck. That decides which truck we send.
Emergency towing, any hour
The worst breakdowns happen at the worst times: after a late shift, on the way home from a game, in a February cold snap. We run dispatch around the clock so you're never stuck waiting for an office to open. The driver who shows up at midnight is equipped the same as the one who shows up at noon.
Night and holiday pricing
Calls between midnight and 6 a.m. can cost more than daytime calls. Dispatch tells you the quote before a truck is sent, so you know before you say yes. See towing prices.
Common emergency calls we handle
- Dead engine or transmission on the interstate
- Overheating in summer traffic
- Blowouts and wheel damage (see flat tire change)
- Slide-offs and ditches after snow or ice (see winch-out service and snowstorm & flood towing)
- Cars that won't start in a parking garage (see low-clearance towing)
- After a crash, once police clear the scene (see accident towing)
Stranded with kids, pets or no heat?
Say so in your request. We'll prioritize getting a truck to you, and in freezing weather we can often jump or refuel the vehicle first so you have heat while you wait. See roadside assistance.
