Emergency towing in Iselin, NJ, 24 hours a day: flatbed and wheel-lift trucks 12 minutes from Linden, price quoted before dispatch
Whether the car quit near Metropark station and office park, on the ramp at Garden State Parkway Exit 131A/131B (Metropark) or at the curb in Metropark, the response is the same: a dispatcher who answers, a flat price before the truck moves, and a flatbed or wheel-lift from Linden in about 12 minutes.
Why Iselin drivers call us for emergency towing before anyone else
An emergency tow in Iselin is immediate dispatch from Linden, about 12 minutes out, for any vehicle that cannot be driven safely, priced as a flat hook plus mileage on the call with an honest arrival window and no after-hours surcharge.
Emergency, in our dispatch room, means the truck rolls now, not that the bill doubles. A car dead at Metropark station and office park at midnight or on the shoulder of Oak Tree Road at dawn gets the closest available truck out of Linden, an arrival window built from where that truck really is, and a driver who calls when he is minutes from Iselin. The price is the same flat hook plus mileage as any weekday tow.
The Metropark end of Woodbridge Township: the office towers and the huge station garage at Metropark on one side, dense residential blocks and the Oak Tree Road commercial strip on the other. Heavy commuter traffic, corporate fleet cars, and one of the biggest park-and-ride lots in New Jersey full of cars that sat all day. Those details decide whether a flatbed or a wheel-lift comes to Iselin and from which direction, so the dispatcher asks about them before the truck moves.
What an emergency tow covers in Iselin
A car that will not start and is not going to. An engine that overheated on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway). A transmission that will not engage. A blowout with no spare on Oak Tree Road. A car that hit something at an Iselin intersection and is leaking or pulling. A vehicle in a tow-away zone with the clock running. Any of these, on a shoulder, in a live lane, in a driveway, at Metropark station and office park or in a garage, is an emergency tow, and the response is the same for all of them.
Why a Linden truck reaches Iselin in about 12 minutes
Our yard is in Linden, at Turnpike Exit 13 with Routes 1 & 9 and Route 27 outside the gate and the Parkway one exit away. Iselin is about 12 minutes from there, usually by Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) and Oak Tree Road. Because the dispatcher watches the trucks on a map, the arrival window is a fact, not a hope, and if Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) is jammed or the weather is bad you hear that too.
Driveways, curbs and decks: where the car sits in Iselin
The Metropark garage has low clearance on the upper levels, so cars are dollied to the ground level or the surface lot before a flatbed loads. Elsewhere it is driveways and packed curbside parking on the residential grid. That is why the dispatcher asks where the car is sitting, not just the street. A driveway in Metropark, a curb space with cars nose to tail, a row at Metropark station and office park or a deck level each need different gear: boards, skates, a dolly, or the flatbed winch for a car that will not roll.
When the emergency in Iselin is really a roadside fix
The dispatcher is trying to send you the cheapest thing that works, which in Iselin is often a technician rather than a truck. Say the symptom: no crank, a flat, locked out, out of gas. That becomes a jump start, a tire change, a lockout or a fuel delivery, and you drive away from Metropark instead of following a flatbed.

Call (908) 444-0129All towing in IselinHow an emergency tow in Iselin goes, from the call to the drop-off
Location in Iselin, symptom, make and model, destination: four answers, one flat quote, one arrival window, and the truck is on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) toward you; the driver phones when he is close and you get an itemized receipt at the drop.
Step one: where, exactly, in Iselin
On Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) or Oak Tree Road, say the direction and the nearest exit, cross street or business. On a residential street, the address or the two cross streets and the neighborhood. In a lot, the name of the place, such as Metropark station and office park. In a garage, the level and the posted clearance. The blue dot on your phone's map is your friend; read the road it shows.
Step two: the symptom, and does it roll
Say what happened in plain words: no start, overheated on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway), transmission will not engage, blowout with no spare, a collision. Then the two questions that set up the load: does it roll, and does the wheel turn? Yes to both is a two-minute load. No to either means the winch and maybe a dolly, and the driver arrives in Iselin ready for it.
Step three: make, model and drivetrain
Make, model and drivetrain settle which truck leaves Linden. A Subaru, a Tesla or anything lowered goes on a flatbed; a front-wheel-drive commuter car that quit in Metropark can ride a wheel-lift for a little less; a sprinter or box truck on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) calls for a medium-duty truck. The dispatcher explains the choice before you say yes.
Step four: the quote, before you commit
Your mechanic in Iselin, a dealer on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway), a body shop near Metropark station and office park, your driveway, or "not sure yet". The destination sets the mileage. The dispatcher quotes the total and you say yes or no. Asking costs nothing.
Step five: the truck rolls, the driver calls, the car is delivered
The dispatcher gives you the window and the driver calls when he is a few minutes from Iselin. On Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) he pulls in behind you with the light bar on before getting out. Usually one passenger rides along. At the drop you pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or cash and get a receipt itemizing the pickup, the destination, the miles and the service.
Have the road, the cross street and the make and model ready. That is all the dispatcher needs to quote emergency towing in Iselin.
Call dispatch nowWhat to have readyThe first hour of an emergency towing call in Iselin: the call, the quote, the drive from Linden and the delivery
An emergency towing call from Iselin takes about three minutes on the phone, about 12 minutes for the truck to arrive from Linden, and fifteen to twenty minutes on scene before the car is loaded and moving to the address you gave.
Nobody who calls us from Iselin has done this before, or does it often. Here is the whole thing in order, so the hour is predictable.
The first minute: what the dispatcher asks when you call from Iselin
The call to (908) 444-0129 is answered by a dispatcher at any hour, not a recording. Four questions follow: exactly where the car is in Iselin (the road and direction, the nearest cross street or exit, such as Garden State Parkway Exit 131A/131B (Metropark), or the name of the lot), the make and model, what happened, and the destination. If the car is in the lot at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots, say which level or section; the driver goes straight to it instead of circling.
Minutes one to three: the price and the dispatch
Once the dispatcher has the location, the vehicle and the destination, you hear a single price. A tow is the hook fee plus the mileage to the address you gave, and the number holds on scene. If you agree, the nearest available truck is assigned before you hang up, and the arrival window you are given comes from where that truck really is, not from a billboard on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway). You pay nothing until the job is finished.
While the truck is on its way to Iselin
The truck comes in on Garden State Parkway and Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) and uses Garden State Parkway Exit 131A/131B (Metropark). Off-peak it is about 12 minutes; in a storm the dispatcher tells you the honest number. The driver calls when he is a few minutes out so you know which truck is yours and can point out the car. Use the wait to gather the key, your license, registration and insurance card, and take anything you need out of the car.
Loading the car in Iselin: what the fifteen to twenty minutes look like
The driver confirms your name and the destination, photographs the car, and positions the truck for the street. A driveway, a curb, a lot or a deck each get a different approach, which is why the dispatcher asked. The car is loaded, strapped and photographed again. If it is going to a shop after hours, the key is left the way the shop asked. You can ride along in most cases; say so on the call.
Once the job is done in Iselin: paperwork and next steps
The last step is the receipt, sent by text or email with the hook fee, the miles and the two addresses itemized, which is the document an insurer or a roadside plan asks for when you claim it back. If a question comes up later, the same dispatch line answers it; there is no separate billing department to chase. For the full picture of towing in Iselin, see all towing in Iselin.
The clock starts when you call (908) 444-0129: three minutes to a quote, about 12 minutes to a truck in Iselin.
Call dispatch nowWhat to have readyEmergency towing on Garden State Parkway, Route 27 (Lincoln Highway), Oak Tree Road and Route 1: the roads we run to reach Iselin
From Linden we reach Iselin by Garden State Parkway, Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) and Oak Tree Road, using Garden State Parkway Exit 131A/131B (Metropark), and we provide emergency towing on every one of them; on the Turnpike and Parkway shoulders the Authority's authorized garage brings the car off the highway and we take it from the exit.
Every road below is one our drivers run to and through Iselin. The notes are what they actually know about each one. When you call for emergency towing, say the road, the direction and the nearest cross street or exit.
A breakdown on Garden State Parkway by Iselin: who works the shoulder and who takes it from the exit
Exit 131A/B feeds Metropark and Route 27; the ramps are a constant fender-bender spot at rush hour. On the New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway the shoulder itself is served by the Turnpike Authority's authorized garages; book with us anyway, and once the authorized truck has the car off the highway we take it from the exit or the garage's lot to the shop or driveway you choose, at the same flat quoted price.
Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) through Iselin: emergency towing on the road and off it
Runs through Iselin past Metropark and the office parks to Metuchen and Rahway. A breakdown on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) is quoted the same flat way as anywhere in Iselin: hook plus mileage to wherever you want the car.
Emergency towing on Oak Tree Road in Iselin
The commercial strip; parked-up, slow, and where most local roadside calls come from. Approaching Oak Tree Road from the wrong side can add ten minutes, so the direction is the first thing the dispatcher asks.
Emergency towing on Route 1 in Iselin
The southern edge with the Route 1 retail strip; narrow shoulders and constant merges. A breakdown on Route 1 is quoted the same flat way as anywhere in Iselin: hook plus mileage to wherever you want the car.
Green Street through Iselin: emergency towing on the road and off it
Connects Iselin to Woodbridge proper; tight at the station underpass. For an emergency tow here, say the direction you are facing and stay belted in the car with the hazards on; the driver shields the scene with the truck before he steps out.
Highway exits that serve Iselin
Garden State Parkway Exit 131A/131B (Metropark) is the exit our trucks use for Iselin. On the highway itself, the exit number and your direction are the first things the dispatcher needs. Where the Turnpike or Parkway express lanes offer no exit, the Authority's garage clears the shoulder and our truck picks the car up at the ramp.
If you are on the side of Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) or any road near Iselin: belt on, hazards on, then call and name the road, the direction and the exit.
Call from the shoulderTowing in IselinWhere we provide emergency towing in Iselin: Route 1 retail strip, Merrill Park and Metropark station and office park and the lots at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots
Route 1 retail strip, Merrill Park, Metropark station and office park, Oak Tree Road commercial district and Iselin Middle School area and Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots are where Iselin drivers most often need emergency towing, and each is about 12 minutes from a Linden truck or technician.
Route 1 retail strip: emergency towing response
We reach Route 1 retail strip in about 12 minutes from Linden. The driver calls when he is close so you can meet him at the car. If it cannot roll it is winched onto the flatbed; if it is in a spot the truck cannot reach, skates move it to where the truck can.
Emergency towing when the car stops at Merrill Park
Breakdowns at Merrill Park get the same flat quoted price and the same immediate dispatch as a highway shoulder. Tell us the make and model so the right truck comes the first time.
Emergency towing at Metropark station and office park
A car that will not move at Metropark station and office park is one of the common Iselin emergency calls. Say the lot or the entrance; the driver knows where a truck can stop and how to reach a car boxed in by others. If it turns out to be a dead battery, a technician fixes it for less than a tow.
Oak Tree Road commercial district: emergency towing response
A car that will not move at Oak Tree Road commercial district is one of the common Iselin emergency calls. Say the lot or the entrance; the driver knows where a truck can stop and how to reach a car boxed in by others. If it turns out to be a dead battery, a technician fixes it for less than a tow.
Iselin Middle School area: emergency towing response
A car that will not move at Iselin Middle School area is one of the common Iselin emergency calls. Say the lot or the entrance; the driver knows where a truck can stop and how to reach a car boxed in by others. If it turns out to be a dead battery, a technician fixes it for less than a tow.
Emergency towing at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots
The commuter lots at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots produce more no-start calls than the rest of Iselin combined. Most are a jump start and a load test; the ones that are not become a flatbed tow on the same call, no second callout.
If you are at one of these Iselin spots now, say which one and where in the lot; emergency towing is dispatched on the call.
Call (908) 444-0129Every service in IselinThe emergency tows Iselin calls us for, from Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) to Metropark station and office park
Iselin emergency towing covers the night shoulder call on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway), the dawn no-start in Metropark, the engine in the red on Oak Tree Road, the blowout with no spare, the car that was just hit, and the one parked where a ticket is minutes away.
Night breakdowns on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) in Iselin
The most dangerous call in Iselin. Stay in the car, belted, hazards on, unless the car itself is in danger; then get behind the guardrail on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) well away from it. Do not accept a tow from a truck that shows up uninvited; ours says the company name and your name.
Driveways, station lots and store parking at dawn
The car that will not start before the morning commute. The car that sat all day at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots with a dome light on. Often a jump fixes it; when it does not, the flatbed is dispatched from the same call.
Engines and transmissions that quit on Oak Tree Road
Overheats and transmission failures happen on the long grades and stop-and-go stretches of Oak Tree Road and Route 27 (Lincoln Highway), and the temptation is to nurse the car home. Do not. A flatbed from Linden costs less than the rebuild that follows a mile of driving with no coolant or a slipping gearbox.
Blowouts with no spare on Oak Tree Road
A third of flat-tire calls from Iselin end as a tow because there is no usable spare. A tire change on the shoulder of Oak Tree Road is the first try; if there is nothing to put on, the tow to the tire shop you choose is quoted on the same call.
Post-crash tows in Iselin
A crash on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) or in the lot at Metropark station and office park becomes an emergency tow the moment the scene is safe. Calling your own truck before the police call theirs keeps the car out of a storage yard; accident towing in Iselin explains how.
Beating the sweeper and the tow-away sign in Metropark
A car that will not start on a street with alternate-side rules has a deadline. The Metropark garage has low clearance on the upper levels, so cars are dollied to the ground level or the surface lot before a flatbed loads. Elsewhere it is driveways and packed curbside parking on the residential grid. Tell the dispatcher when the window closes and the truck moves the car to your driveway or your shop before the ticket is written.
However the car ended up stopped in Iselin, the same number sends the truck or the technician the job needs.
Call (908) 444-0129Emergency towing explainedHow much emergency towing costs in Iselin, NJ, and why the number is quoted before the truck leaves Linden
The cost of an emergency tow from Iselin is a flat hook fee and a per-mile rate, quoted as one number on the phone; the same number applies at 3 a.m. on a holiday, and there is no fuel or passenger charge.
What an emergency tow from Iselin is made of
The hook fee covers dispatch, loading and the driver's time on scene. Mileage is the distance from the pickup in Iselin to the drop-off. A tow to a shop in Iselin or the next town usually falls within the base mileage. The dispatcher adds the two and gives you one total.
What is never on an emergency towing bill in Iselin
There is no fuel surcharge, no night or holiday premium, no charge for a passenger in the cab and no administrative fee. There is no storage line either, because the car from Iselin goes to your shop or driveway, not our yard. If the number on scene differs from the number dispatch gave you, call dispatch before the car is loaded.
Paying, and getting reimbursed
Cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cash all work at the drop, and fleets get net terms. Keep the receipt: it lists where in Iselin the car was, where it went, the miles and the service, line by line, which is what a roadside plan or insurer needs to pay you back.
Why there is no price list for Iselin on the website
A printed price would have to be wrong for someone: the car at Metropark station and office park and the car on the shoulder of Oak Tree Road are different jobs, and so are a compact and a full-size SUV, and so are a drop across town and one across Middlesex County. The dispatcher settles all of that in half a minute and gives you one exact number; if you do not like it, you owe nothing.

Call for a quoteSchedule insteadEmergency towing in every Iselin neighborhood: Middlesex Avenue section, Metropark, Oak Tree Road and Green Street area and more
From Middlesex Avenue section to Route 1 side, every part of Iselin gets emergency towing from the same trucks at the same quoted price; the full list is Middlesex Avenue section, Metropark, Oak Tree Road, Green Street area and Route 1 side.
The Metropark garage has low clearance on the upper levels, so cars are dollied to the ground level or the surface lot before a flatbed loads. Elsewhere it is driveways and packed curbside parking on the residential grid. The driver's first question is where the car is sitting, because the approach differs by street.
Middlesex Avenue section, Iselin: emergency towing response
In Middlesex Avenue section the approach depends on the street: a Middlesex Avenue section driveway, a curb, a lot or a garage each get different rigging, and knowing before the truck leaves Linden means no second trip to Middlesex Avenue section. Flat price, real window, itemized receipt, in Middlesex Avenue section as everywhere in Iselin.
Emergency towing in Metropark
In Metropark the approach depends on the street: a Metropark driveway, a curb, a lot or a garage each get different rigging, and knowing before the truck leaves Linden means no second trip to Metropark. Flat price, real window, itemized receipt, in Metropark as everywhere in Iselin.
Oak Tree Road: what emergency towing looks like here
Calls from Oak Tree Road are quoted the same flat way as anywhere in Iselin. Tell the dispatcher the nearest cross street in Oak Tree Road and where the car is sitting, and the truck arrives set up for it.
Green Street area, Iselin: emergency towing response
In Green Street area the approach depends on the street: a Green Street area driveway, a curb, a lot or a garage each get different rigging, and knowing before the truck leaves Linden means no second trip to Green Street area. Flat price, real window, itemized receipt, in Green Street area as everywhere in Iselin.
Route 1 side: what emergency towing looks like here
Route 1 side gets the same response as the rest of Iselin: a dispatcher who quotes emergency towing on the call, a truck from Linden in about 12 minutes, and a driver who calls when he is minutes out. Give the cross streets in Route 1 side and whether the car is in a driveway, on the street or in a lot.
Anywhere in Iselin, same number, same flat price, same 24/7 dispatch.
Call (908) 444-0129Contact dispatchWho calls for emergency towing in Iselin: commuters, families, small businesses and visitors passing through on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway)
Emergency towing in Iselin serves roughly 18,000 residents and everyone driving through: commuters at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots, families in the residential streets, businesses near Metropark station and office park, and drivers who only know Iselin as an exit on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway).
The Metropark end of Woodbridge Township: the office towers and the huge station garage at Metropark on one side, dense residential blocks and the Oak Tree Road commercial strip on the other. Heavy commuter traffic, corporate fleet cars, and one of the biggest park-and-ride lots in New Jersey full of cars that sat all day. Those are the drivers of Iselin, and each group below calls for emergency towing for its own reasons.
Commuters in Iselin and the lot at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots
An Iselin commuter's car fails at the worst possible moments: leaving for the train, coming home late, or on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) in the morning rush. We tow it to the shop you name or the driveway you left from, and tell you the price first. Most commuter calls are quoted and dispatched in under three minutes.
Families in the residential streets of Iselin
The community has a lot of two- and three-car households, and the spare car is the one that fails. A local tow to the shop or the dealer is priced as hook plus mileage, quoted on the call. If you are locked out with a child inside, call 911 first and then us; that call goes to the front of the line.
Iselin businesses: the vehicles that earn money by moving
Vans, pickups and delivery cars around Metropark station and office park cannot sit for a day. A small business in Iselin gets the same dispatcher and the same flat quote, plus an itemized receipt that works for the books. Larger trucks are a heavy-duty job in Iselin, and the dispatcher knows the difference from the make and model.
Drivers passing through Iselin on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway)
Half of the emergency towing calls from Iselin are from people who do not live here: a car that quit on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) on the way somewhere else. You do not need to know the town. Say the road, the direction and the last exit or a sign you can see, and the dispatcher places you. If the car is going far, we quote it as one number; see long distance towing.
Whoever you are and whatever you drive in Iselin, the call is the same: (908) 444-0129, 24 hours a day.
Call (908) 444-0129Emergency towing explainedEmergency towing in Iselin by season: the calls we get in winter, spring, summer and fall
The trucks run to Iselin in every month, but what they are sent for follows the calendar: dead batteries and ice on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) in winter, pothole damage in spring, overheating and blown tires in summer, storms and deer strikes in the fall. Route 1 underpasses pond; the Parkway ramps at 131 ice.
The same trucks serve Iselin in every month, but Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) in January is a different road from Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) in July. This is how the season changes the emergency towing calls we get from Iselin, and how we prepare for each.
Winter emergency towing in Iselin when Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) ices over
Winter emergency tows are mostly cars that slid, stalled in a drift or died at a light in the cold; the flatbed carries chains and a snatch block for the ones that left the pavement. The lot at Metropark station (NJ Transit Northeast Corridor and Amtrak) with its multi-level garage and surface lots empties late on winter evenings, and the cars left behind are ours to jump or tow. Say whether the car is behind a plow ridge, on a sloped driveway or on the shoulder of Route 27 (Lincoln Highway); each is rigged differently, and the dispatcher plans it before the truck leaves Linden.
Pothole season in Iselin: March and April on Oak Tree Road
Spring brings suspension and tire damage from potholes; a car that hit one hard and now pulls or clunks should ride a flatbed rather than be driven. Oak Tree Road and the side streets off it break up every March; a car that hit a hole and now vibrates or pulls should not be driven to the shop.
Emergency towing in Iselin in July and August
Summer emergencies are overheating and blown tires at speed; pull off, hood closed, and let the truck bring it to a shop before the head gasket goes. Holiday weekends load Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) with traffic and the shoulders with cars; if the temperature gauge climbs, pull off early, because a tow is cheaper than an engine.
Deer, wet leaves and the first freeze: fall in Iselin
In the fall the calls shift to deer strikes at dusk and wet-leaf spins on the ramps; both end with a flatbed and a body shop. Wet leaves on the ramps off Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) are as slick as ice; a car that slid onto the grass is a winch-out in Iselin, not a tow, and is priced that way.
The seasons change the calls from Iselin, not the way we answer them: call (908) 444-0129, describe the car, and hear the price before the truck rolls.

Call nowMiddlesex County towingQuestions Iselin drivers ask about emergency towing before they call
The questions below cover arrival time in Iselin, the price of emergency towing, the right truck, destinations, lots and decks, insurance and waiting safely; for anything else, the dispatch line answers in person.
How long until a tow truck reaches Iselin?
About 12 minutes to most of Iselin. The window you hear on the call comes from where the closest truck actually is, so it holds; Route 27 (Lincoln Highway) at rush hour is the exception and you are told.
Is there an extra charge for a night or holiday tow in Iselin?
No surcharge for the hour, the day or the weather. The flat hook-plus-mileage quote is the price, whether the car is in Metropark at midnight or at Metropark station and office park at noon.
What information do you need for a tow from Route 27 (Lincoln Highway)?
The direction you are facing on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway), the nearest exit such as Garden State Parkway Exit 131A/131B (Metropark) or the cross street, whether you are on the shoulder or in a lane, and whether police are already there. Then the make and model.
Is there room for me in the truck from Iselin?
In most cases one passenger can ride in the cab from Iselin to the destination. Tell the dispatcher how many people are with the car.
Do you tow AWD and electric cars in Iselin?
Yes. AWD and electric cars ride the flatbed with all four wheels off the ground; nothing is dragged. Say the model on the call and the flatbed is what leaves Linden.
The car is boxed in at Metropark station and office park. Can you still tow it?
Yes. The Metropark garage has low clearance on the upper levels, so cars are dollied to the ground level or the surface lot before a flatbed loads. Elsewhere it is driveways and packed curbside parking on the residential grid. A flatbed does not fit under most decks; the car is moved to the entrance on skates or a dolly and loaded outside. Tell the dispatcher the place and the level.
Can I pick where the car goes from Iselin?
Anywhere you choose: your mechanic, a dealer on Route 27 (Lincoln Highway), a body shop, your driveway in Metropark. Never a storage yard we picked. Destinations outside the 45-minute area are quoted per mile.
Do I need a membership or insurance to call you in Iselin?
No. Anyone in Iselin can call. Pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or cash and take the itemized receipt; most policies and roadside plans reimburse an out-of-network tow from it.
Police are on scene in Iselin. Is it too late to call you?
Usually yes, if the rotation truck has not hooked it yet and the car is not blocking Route 27 (Lincoln Highway). Tell the officer a private tow is 12 minutes out and where the car is going.
Should I ask for a tow or a technician in Iselin?
Say so, or describe the symptom and let the dispatcher decide. A roadside technician is usually cheaper than a tow and gets you driving out of Iselin. If it turns out to need the truck, the flatbed is dispatched to Metropark station and office park or wherever you are from the same call.
