Emergency towing starts at $95 across the southwest Chicago suburbs, 24 hours a day. Broken down, wrecked or blocking a lane — tell us where the vehicle is and where it needs to go, and we give you the price before the truck is dispatched.
What This Covers
The calls we get dispatched for under emergency towing.
Breakdowns & No-Starts
The engine quit, the transmission let go, or it turns over and won't catch. We get it off the road and to wherever you want it.
Accident Recovery
Collision damage, flat-towed or loaded depending on what's broken. Tell us if it's blocking traffic and whether police are on scene.
Shop & Dealer Drops
Your mechanic, your dealership, your driveway. It's your vehicle — you pick where it goes, not us.
Blocked-In & Unwanted Vehicles
Cars parked where they shouldn't be, or a vehicle that needs to leave a lot or driveway.
What Affects the Price
Starting prices are a floor, not a guess. These are the things that move the number.
We'd rather explain what changes the price than quote you a number that turns into a different number when the truck shows up. Tell us the details on the call and you get the real figure before anything is dispatched.

Quick Answers
What callers ask us most about emergency towing.
How much does emergency towing cost?
Local emergency towing starts at $95. The final price depends on how far the vehicle is going, what you're driving and how hard it is to get to. We give you that number before we dispatch, so nothing gets added on at the end.
How fast can you get a truck to me?
It depends on where you are, the time of day and the weather. We'll give you a realistic arrival window on the call rather than a number that just sounds good. If we're not the fastest option for a genuine emergency, we'll say so.
My car was in an accident — can you still tow it?
Yes. Tell us whether it rolls and steers, whether it's blocking traffic and whether police are on scene. That determines how we load it and what we bring.
Can you tow it to my own mechanic?
Yes. You choose the destination — your shop, your dealership or your driveway. Distance affects the price, which is why we ask where it's going before quoting.
What if I'm stuck on the interstate?
Get out of the vehicle and get behind the guardrail before you call. Then give us the highway, direction of travel and the nearest exit or mile marker.
Are you available overnight?
Yes. We dispatch 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends and holidays.
