Flatbed towing in Passaic, NJ for AWD, electric, lowered and non-rolling cars: carried on the deck, never dragged, 40 minutes from Linden
A Subaru dead at Main Avenue downtown, a Tesla with a flat battery in Downtown / Main Avenue, a lowered coupe that will not clear a wheel-lift, a car that will not roll after a crash on Main Avenue: each one rides the flatbed, strapped at the tires, about 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour from Linden.
Flatbed towing near you in Passaic: what you get when you call our Linden dispatch
A flatbed tow in Passaic carries the car on a deck that tilts to the ground, so nothing on the car turns while it travels; that is what AWD, 4x4, electric, lowered and crash-damaged cars need, and the truck comes from Linden in about 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour at a price quoted first.
The deck on a rollback slides back and tilts until its edge touches the pavement; the car goes up it under its own power or on the winch cable and travels with nothing turning. That matters more every year, because the cars parked around Main Avenue downtown and in Downtown / Main Avenue driveways are increasingly all-wheel-drive, electric or low enough to scrape a wheel-lift's angle. Passaic is about 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour from the Linden yard for the flatbed.
A densely packed city of apartment buildings and multi-family homes on the Passaic River, with Main Avenue and Monroe Street as its commercial strips and Route 21 along the river. Street parking is nose-to-tail on every block, older cars are common, and boxed-in vehicles shape every call. Those are the vehicles the dispatcher has in mind when he asks the model, because in Passaic the answer usually means the flatbed and sometimes means a cheaper wheel-lift.
When a flatbed is the only correct tow in Passaic
Any all-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive vehicle: Subarus, most modern SUVs, Audi Quattro, BMW xDrive, Mercedes 4MATIC. Dragging two wheels spins the center differential dry and can destroy it before you leave Passaic. Electric vehicles have no true neutral and generate current through the motors while rolling. Lowered cars scrape on a wheel-lift's angle. Cars with a seized engine, locked steering, a missing wheel or crash damage off Route 21 will not roll at all. Every one of these is a flatbed job, and we send it without being asked once you tell us the model.
Getting a flatbed to the car on Passaic streets
Curbside on both sides of narrow streets with cars parked bumper to bumper; small shared driveways and a few tight apartment garages. A wheel-lift often fits where a flatbed needs the car pulled out first. That decides how the load goes. A driveway with space behind it is a straight pull up the deck. A tight curb space or a row at Main Avenue downtown may need skates under the tires to move the car to where the deck can drop. A garage under seven feet keeps the flatbed out entirely, so the car is rolled or dollied to the entrance and loaded there. The dispatcher plans it from what you tell him.
Soft straps, ramps and boards: how the car goes up
The car is winched or driven up the deck, then held with soft wheel straps over the tires. Chains never touch the body or suspension. Long-overhang and lowered cars get ramps and boards under the approach so the front lip clears the deck's edge. Owners of luxury, exotic and classic cars around Main Avenue downtown ask for a flatbed by name because the car goes up on straps and comes down without a mark.
Flatbed or wheel-lift: the honest answer for Passaic
Not every car in Passaic needs the deck. A front-wheel-drive Civic or Corolla that will not start in Downtown / Main Avenue, headed a few miles to a shop on Route 21, rides a wheel-lift with the front wheels cradled and the rears rolling, and pays a little less. The dispatcher tells you which truck fits and why, and it goes both ways: no flatbed sold to a car that does not need it, no wheel-lift sent to one that does. The emergency towing page for Passaic covers the smaller truck.

Call (908) 444-0129All towing in PassaicWhat happens on a Passaic flatbed call, from dispatch to delivery
A flatbed call from Passaic runs: exact spot, make and model, does it roll, where it goes, one quoted price, the truck on Route 21 toward you, the car winched or driven up the deck, strapped at the tires, dropped where you said.
Step one: where in Passaic the deck has to drop
On Route 21 or Main Avenue, the direction and the nearest exit or cross street. On a residential street, the address and whether the car is in a driveway, at the curb or boxed in. At Main Avenue downtown, the lot and the row. In a garage, the level and the posted clearance, because a flatbed usually cannot go in. A flatbed needs about a car length and a half behind the vehicle to drop the deck; if that room is not there, say so and the driver brings skates.
Step two: what the car is, because it decides the rigging
Year, make and model, and whether it is AWD, electric, hybrid, lowered or modified. If you do not know whether it is AWD, say the model and the dispatcher will. Electric cars: tell us so the driver arrives ready to put the car in Tow Mode or, if the battery is flat, to use skates under the drive wheels.
Step three: what shape the car is in
Three quick questions: does it roll, does it steer, is anything dragging? Yes, yes, no is a two-minute load at Main Avenue downtown or anywhere in Passaic. Anything else means winch work with the deck lowered and possibly a dolly under a corner, and a wrecked car is rigged around its damage. Crashes are covered on the accident towing page for Passaic.
Step four: the destination and the flat price
Your shop, a dealer, a body shop, your driveway in Passaic or a long-distance destination. The flatbed hook fee plus mileage is quoted as one total before the truck leaves Linden. Asking costs nothing and obligates you to nothing.
Step five: strapped at four tires, checked, delivered
Four tire straps, each tightened and checked, and the truck leaves Downtown / Main Avenue or wherever the car was. You or one passenger can usually ride along. At the destination the car is lowered off the deck the same careful way it went on, and the itemized receipt shows the Passaic pickup, the drop-off, the mileage and the service. Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or cash.
Have the road, the cross street and the make and model ready. That is all the dispatcher needs to quote flatbed towing in Passaic.
Call dispatch nowWhat to have readyWhat happens after you call for flatbed towing in Passaic: minute by minute from Linden dispatch to the drop
From Passaic the whole flatbed towing call runs in three parts: a three-minute phone call with a quoted price, about 40 minutes while the truck drives in from Linden via Garden State Parkway Exit 154 (Clifton), and fifteen to twenty minutes on scene to load, strap and photograph the car before it leaves for your destination.
Most people in Passaic call for flatbed towing once in several years, so none of it feels familiar. The steps below happen in the same order on every call, so you know what comes next.
Minute zero: the call from Passaic
A dispatcher answers (908) 444-0129 at any hour; there is no menu and no callback queue. The questions are the same every time: where exactly is the car (the road, the direction, the nearest cross street or exit, such as Garden State Parkway Exit 154 (Clifton), or the name of the lot), what is it, what happened, and where it should go. If you are on the shoulder of Route 21, say so first; shoulder calls are moved to the front of the line. Turnpike and Parkway shoulders are served by the Authority's authorized garages. Book with us and we take the car from the exit or the garage's lot.
Minutes one to three: one number, then a truck is assigned
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 21. You pay nothing until the job is finished.
While the truck is on its way to Passaic
The route in is Route 21 and Main Avenue, coming off at Garden State Parkway Exit 154 (Clifton). That is about 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour with clear roads; in snow or a rush-hour backup the dispatcher gives you the real figure instead of a hopeful one. A few minutes before arrival the driver calls so you can spot the right truck and wave him to the car. Take a photo of the car where it sits and note the nearest sign or cross street; it helps the driver find you and it helps later if an insurer asks.
On scene in Passaic: fifteen to twenty minutes to load
On arrival the driver checks your name and where the car is going, takes photos of it as it sits, and sets the truck up for the spot: a city driveway, a curb, a lot at Main Avenue downtown or a parking deck each need a different angle, which is why the dispatcher asked where the car was. Then it is winched or driven up, strapped at all four wheels and photographed again. For an after-hours drop at a shop, the key goes wherever the shop asked. Riding along in the cab is usually fine; mention it on the call.
Afterward: the itemized receipt and the follow-up
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 the car needs a second move later, from the shop to home, say, the same dispatch line quotes it as a local tow in Passaic. The whole picture of towing in Passaic is on the Passaic towing page.
Three minutes on the phone, about 40 minutes on the road. Start the clock: call (908) 444-0129.
Call dispatch nowWhat to have readyThe roads into Passaic: flatbed towing response on Route 21, Main Avenue, Monroe Street / Passaic Street and Paulison Avenue / Lexington Avenue
From Linden we reach Passaic by Route 21, Main Avenue and Monroe Street / Passaic Street, using Garden State Parkway Exit 154 (Clifton) and Route 21 at Monroe Street / Passaic Avenue, and we provide flatbed 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.
These are the roads a Passaic call for flatbed towing happens on, in the order a driver from Linden meets them. Give the dispatcher the road, your direction and the nearest exit or cross street.
Flatbed towing on Route 21 in Passaic
Runs along the river through the city toward Newark and Clifton; no shoulders and fast traffic, so breakdowns block a lane. On Route 21 the driver stops behind you with the amber bar running, lowers the deck, and winches the car up without your engine or drivetrain turning.
Flatbed towing on Main Avenue in Passaic
The main commercial street through downtown toward Clifton; buses, double parking and narrow lanes. A flatbed on Main Avenue needs the shoulder behind your car clear to drop the deck; if the shoulder is narrow, say so and the driver plans a pull-forward first.
Flatbed towing on Monroe Street / Passaic Street in Passaic
Cross-town commercial streets with tight curbside parking. AWD and electric cars stranded on Monroe Street / Passaic Street ride the flatbed only; tell the dispatcher the model and the right truck leaves Linden the first time.
Paulison Avenue / Lexington Avenue: flatbed towing response in Passaic
Residential connectors toward Clifton and the Dundee section. On Paulison Avenue / Lexington Avenue the driver stops behind you with the amber bar running, lowers the deck, and winches the car up without your engine or drivetrain turning.
Garden State Parkway (via Clifton) at Passaic: the Authority's garage first, then flatbed towing from us
Exits 153 and 154 in Clifton are the nearest ramps. 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.
Highway exits that serve Passaic
Garden State Parkway Exit 154 (Clifton) and Route 21 at Monroe Street / Passaic Avenue are the exits our trucks use for Passaic. On the highway itself, the exit number and your direction are the first things the dispatcher needs. On the express lanes of the Turnpike and Parkway, where there is no exit to reach, the Authority's garage brings the car off and we take over at the exit.
Stopped on a shoulder near Passaic? Stay belted, hazards on, and call with the road, your direction and the nearest exit.
Call from the shoulderTowing in PassaicMain Avenue downtown, St. Mary's General Hospital (Clifton border) and Third Ward Park and Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line): the Passaic spots that call for flatbed towing most
The common Passaic pickup points for flatbed towing are Main Avenue downtown, St. Mary's General Hospital (Clifton border), Third Ward Park, Dundee Dam and the Passaic River waterfront and Passaic Park section and Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line) and NJ Transit bus terminal area on Main Avenue; a truck or technician reaches any of them in about 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour.
Flatbed towing at Main Avenue downtown
A flatbed pickup at Main Avenue downtown starts with the lot and the row. The driver needs room behind the car to tilt the deck; if it is boxed in, skates move it sideways first. AWD, EV and low cars parked here go on the deck, never behind a hook.
St. Mary's General Hospital (Clifton border): flatbed towing response
A car that will not start at St. Mary's General Hospital (Clifton border) is a jump first and a flatbed only if the battery is finished or the car is AWD or electric and needs a shop. Either way the price is quoted before anything moves, and Passaic pickups here are routine.
Flatbed towing when the car stops at Third Ward Park
A flatbed pickup at Third Ward Park starts with the lot and the row. The driver needs room behind the car to tilt the deck; if it is boxed in, skates move it sideways first. AWD, EV and low cars parked here go on the deck, never behind a hook.
Flatbed towing when the car stops at Dundee Dam and the Passaic River waterfront
We reach Dundee Dam and the Passaic River waterfront in about 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour from Linden with the flatbed. Meet the driver at the car if you can, take your belongings out, and have the key ready so the car can be put in neutral or Tow Mode for a straight pull up the deck.
Flatbed towing at Passaic Park section
A flatbed pickup at Passaic Park section starts with the lot and the row. The driver needs room behind the car to tilt the deck; if it is boxed in, skates move it sideways first. AWD, EV and low cars parked here go on the deck, never behind a hook.
Flatbed towing at Monroe Street shopping strip
The lot at Monroe Street shopping strip usually has room for the deck to drop, which makes it one of the easier Passaic loads. Say the row and the make; an AWD or an EV parked here rides the flatbed with all four tires strapped.
Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line) and NJ Transit bus terminal area on Main Avenue: flatbed towing in the commuter lot
The lots at Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line) and NJ Transit bus terminal area on Main Avenue are where Passaic finds its dead batteries at 6 p.m., and a dead battery is a jump start before it is anything else. If the battery is done and the car is a Subaru, an Audi or a Tesla, the flatbed comes from the same call and carries it to your shop with nothing turning.
At one of these spots right now? Say the name and the lot, and the truck or the tech is on the way.
Call (908) 444-0129Every service in PassaicThe flatbed jobs Passaic sends us, from Main Avenue downtown to Route 21
The flatbed jobs in Passaic are all-wheel-drive SUVs and wagons, Teslas and other EVs, luxury and classic cars from around Main Avenue downtown, lowered and tuned cars, vehicles that will not roll after a crash on Route 21, cars stuck in low garages, and any car going a long distance.
AWD and 4x4 SUVs, wagons and pickups in Passaic
The most common flatbed job in Passaic. Subaru, Audi Quattro, BMW xDrive, Mercedes 4MATIC, Jeep, Toyota and Honda AWD crossovers. Two wheels off the ground and two rolling spins the transfer case dry. All four on the deck, always.
Electric cars in Passaic ride the deck only
An electric car's motors are always connected to the wheels, so towing one with the drive wheels turning generates current and damage. On the flatbed, nothing turns. A Tesla with charge goes into Tow Mode and rolls up; one with a dead battery in a Passaic driveway goes up on skates under the drive wheels. Say the model on the call.
Luxury, exotic and classic cars around Main Avenue downtown
The nicer cars parked around Main Avenue downtown and St. Mary's General Hospital (Clifton border) are the reason we photograph before loading. Ramps and boards keep a low lip off the deck edge, soft straps hold the car at the tires, and it arrives at the shop or the show exactly as it left. Nobody in Passaic with an exotic or a classic wants a hook under it.
Modified and lowered cars in Passaic
A wheel-lift's angle scrapes a lowered car on the way up; a flatbed with boards under the approach does not. Tell the dispatcher the ride height if the car is modified and the driver brings extra boards to Main Avenue downtown, Downtown / Main Avenue or wherever in Passaic it sits.
Seized engines, locked steering and missing wheels
Runs along the river through the city toward Newark and Clifton; no shoulders and fast traffic, so breakdowns block a lane. A car that has been hit there, or one that seized its engine or locked its steering, is winched up the fully lowered deck with a dolly under whichever corner will not turn. Bent frames, folded control arms and shredded tires are ordinary work for the flatbed.
Getting a car out of a parking deck in Passaic
A flatbed is taller than nearly every parking deck ceiling. Curbside on both sides of narrow streets with cars parked bumper to bumper; small shared driveways and a few tight apartment garages. A wheel-lift often fits where a flatbed needs the car pulled out first. The car is moved on skates or a dolly to the entrance and loaded on the street. Say the garage and the level on the call and the driver arrives with the gear and the plan.
One call covers every situation above in Passaic; describe it, and the right truck or tech is sent.
Call (908) 444-0129Flatbed towing explainedWhat flatbed towing costs in Passaic, how the price is built, and why it is quoted before a truck leaves Linden
Flatbed towing in Passaic is priced as a flatbed hook fee plus mileage to wherever the car is going, a little above the wheel-lift rate and nothing like the cost of the drivetrain or bumper damage a wheel-lift can do to the wrong car, with one total quoted before dispatch and no surcharges.
What a flatbed tow from Passaic is made of
The flatbed hook fee is a little higher than the wheel-lift fee because it is a bigger truck and a longer load. Mileage is the distance from the pickup in Passaic to the drop-off, and a tow to a shop in Passaic or the next town usually stays inside the base mileage. The dispatcher adds the two and gives you one total before the truck moves.
A few dollars more for the deck, a transfer case saved
The flatbed costs a little more than the wheel-lift and a great deal less than what the wrong truck does to an AWD, an EV or a low car. A transfer case, a drive motor, a splitter: any of those dwarfs the difference. For the cars in Passaic that need the deck, the deck is the cheap option, and for the cars that do not, we say so.
The charges a Passaic flatbed tow does not have
Skates, boards and a dolly are tools, not line items, whether they come out at Main Avenue downtown or on a Downtown / Main Avenue street. Neither are nights, holidays, a passenger in the cab or fuel. There is no storage charge because the car from Passaic goes to your shop or driveway, not our yard. Pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or cash and get an itemized receipt your insurer accepts.
The reason this page has no flatbed towing price table for Passaic
Prices depend on the truck the job needs and the distance to where you want the car, and both are known in thirty seconds on the phone. That is why the website says "quoted first" instead of printing a number that would be wrong for half of Passaic.

Flatbed towing is dispatched to every part of Passaic, including Fourth Ward, Botany border, Lower Passaic, Downtown / Main Avenue, Passaic Park, Dundee and Third Ward, at the same flat quoted price.
Curbside on both sides of narrow streets with cars parked bumper to bumper; small shared driveways and a few tight apartment garages. A wheel-lift often fits where a flatbed needs the car pulled out first. Say the Passaic neighborhood and the cross street; it is faster than a house number on a long block.
Fourth Ward, Passaic: flatbed towing response
Fourth Ward gets the same response as the rest of Passaic: a dispatcher who quotes flatbed towing on the call, a truck from Linden in about 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour, and a driver who calls when he is minutes out. Give the cross streets in Fourth Ward and whether the car is in a driveway, on the street or in a lot.
Botany border: what flatbed towing looks like here
Calls from Botany border are quoted the same flat way as anywhere in Passaic. Tell the dispatcher the nearest cross street in Botany border and where the car is sitting, and the truck arrives set up for it.
Flatbed towing in Lower Passaic
In Lower Passaic the approach depends on the street: a Lower Passaic driveway, a curb, a lot or a garage each get different rigging, and knowing before the truck leaves Linden means no second trip to Lower Passaic. Flat price, real window, itemized receipt, in Lower Passaic as everywhere in Passaic.
Flatbed towing in Downtown / Main Avenue
In Downtown / Main Avenue the approach depends on the street: a Downtown / Main Avenue driveway, a curb, a lot or a garage each get different rigging, and knowing before the truck leaves Linden means no second trip to Downtown / Main Avenue.

Anywhere in Passaic, same number, same flat price, same 24/7 dispatch.
Call (908) 444-0129Contact dispatchFlatbed towing for every kind of Passaic driver: the commuter, the family, the fleet and the stranger on Route 21
Flatbed towing in Passaic serves roughly 70,000 residents and everyone driving through: commuters at Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line), families in the residential streets, businesses near Main Avenue downtown, and drivers who only know Passaic as an exit on Route 21.
A densely packed city of apartment buildings and multi-family homes on the Passaic River, with Main Avenue and Monroe Street as its commercial strips and Route 21 along the river. Street parking is nose-to-tail on every block, older cars are common, and boxed-in vehicles shape every call. That mix shapes the flatbed towing calls we get from Passaic.
Commuters in Passaic and the lot at Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line)
The lot at Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line) is where Passaic batteries die: a car sits ten hours, the lights were left on, and at 7 p.m. it is dark and cold. A tow to the shop from the lot or the driveway is quoted before the truck leaves; if a jump or a tire would do instead, the dispatcher says so. Commuters need one thing above all: a real arrival time, and they get one.
Families in the residential streets of Passaic
The city 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.
Work vans, pickups and fleets around Main Avenue downtown
Around Main Avenue downtown and St. Mary's General Hospital (Clifton border) the calls come from work vehicles: a plumber's van, a florist's car, a landscaper's pickup with a trailer behind it. A business tow from Passaic is priced the same hook-plus-mileage way as anyone else's and lands at the shop you name; anything over a pickup's weight is a heavy-duty job. Fleet accounts get one invoice a month; ask the dispatcher.
Drivers passing through Passaic on Route 21
Half of the flatbed towing calls from Passaic are from people who do not live here: a car that quit on Route 21 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 Passaic, the call is the same: (908) 444-0129, 24 hours a day.
Call (908) 444-0129Flatbed towing explainedFlatbed towing in Passaic through the year: winter ice, pothole spring, summer heat and fall storms on Route 21
Flatbed towing in Passaic is a year-round service, but the calls change with the season: batteries and ice in winter, potholes in spring, heat and tire failures in summer, storms and deer in the fall. The river blocks near Dundee and the Passaic Park low streets flood in nor'easters.
Dispatch keeps the same hours all year, but a driver who has run to Passaic for a few winters knows what the calendar does to the calls. The notes below are the pattern, so you know what to expect from flatbed towing in each season and what to do before you call.
Flatbed towing in Passaic in winter: snow, ice and dead batteries
In winter a flatbed is the only safe way to move an AWD car that cannot be shifted to neutral on ice; the deck comes down flat and the car is winched on. The lot at Passaic station (NJ Transit Main Line) 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 21; each is rigged differently, and the dispatcher plans it before the truck leaves Linden.
Pothole season in Passaic: March and April on Main Avenue
Pothole season fills the flatbed with cars carrying bent wheels and torn sidewalls that must not roll another mile. The spring calls cluster around Main Avenue downtown and along Route 21, where the traffic is heaviest and the pavement breaks first; if the steering wheel sits off-center after a hit, the car rides the flatbed to an alignment shop rather than chewing up a new tire on the way.
Summer flatbed towing in Passaic: heat, traffic and holiday weekends
Summer is show-car and dealer-transfer season; low cars ride on with extended ramps and soft straps. Summer in Passaic also fills the lots at Main Avenue downtown, and a car that sat in the sun all afternoon on a weak battery does not start at closing time; the technician carries a jump pack and checks the coolant, and the flatbed is sent from the same call if the fix will not hold.
Deer, wet leaves and the first freeze: fall in Passaic
Fall flatbed runs are storm-flooded cars that must never be started, loaded and delivered to the shop for a teardown. The first cold night of the fall exposes every weak battery in Passaic; a jump start gets you moving and the tech tells you if the battery will hold. See jump starts in Passaic.
January or July, the number does not change and neither does the way the job is priced in Passaic. Call (908) 444-0129, say what happened, and the season is our problem.

Call nowPassaic County towingWhat Passaic drivers want to know about flatbed towing, price and where the car goes
Arrival time to Passaic, price, which truck, where the car can go, garages and lots, insurance and what to do while waiting; anything else, dispatch answers live.
How fast can a flatbed get to Passaic?
About 40 minutes on a normal day, longer at rush hour to most of Passaic, a little more to Downtown / Main Avenue at rush hour. The dispatcher tells you the real window on the call.
Does a flatbed cost more than a regular tow in Passaic?
A little. The flatbed hook fee is marginally higher because it is a bigger truck. For an AWD, an EV or a low car it is far cheaper than the damage a wheel-lift does. The exact number is quoted before dispatch to Passaic.
Can you flatbed a Tesla in Passaic?
Yes, and only on the flatbed. With charge, the car goes into Tow Mode and rolls up the deck; with a dead battery, skates go under the drive wheels and it is winched. Nothing is dragged. Say the model on the call.
My car is in a low garage in Passaic. Can the flatbed reach it?
The flatbed stays outside, on the street near Main Avenue downtown or wherever the deck is. The driver rolls or dollies the car to the garage entrance, sometimes on skates if it is boxed in, and loads it at the curb. Tell the dispatcher which deck in Passaic and which level.
How is the car held on the flatbed?
Straps, at the tires. Nothing metal touches the car. A long-nosed or lowered car gets boards under the approach so the lip clears the deck.
A wheel is folded under after a collision on Route 21. Can the flatbed take it?
Yes. The deck is lowered and the car is winched up, with a dolly under a wheel that will not turn. See the accident towing page for Passaic for the full process.
Do I need a flatbed for a front-wheel-drive car in Passaic?
Not usually. A front-wheel-drive car going a few miles to a shop in Passaic rides a wheel-lift with the front wheels cradled and pays a little less. The dispatcher says which truck fits and why.
Can I ride along on a flatbed tow from Passaic?
One passenger, as a rule. Tell the dispatcher how many of you are at the car in Passaic and he plans for the rest.
My car is at Main Avenue downtown and I am not there. Can you still get it?
Yes, 24 hours a day. Tell us the lot and row; if the car is boxed in, skates move it to where the deck can drop. Bring the key or arrange for it to be left.
Do you flatbed cars long distance from Passaic?
Yes, always on the flatbed for distance. The per-mile total is quoted on the call. Details are on the long distance towing page for Passaic: /long-distance-towing-passaic-nj.
