Driving a tow truck in Livingston: the roads, the lots, the calls
Livingston is roughly 32 minutes from our Linden yard; the calls here run on Route 10, Eisenhower Parkway and South Livingston Avenue / Livingston Avenue and the town's own streets and lots.
A suburban township of cul-de-sacs, long driveways and family SUVs, with the Livingston Mall and a strip of office parks and dealerships along Route 10. Mall-lot lockouts, dead batteries after a workday, and AWD vehicles that need a flatbed are the pattern.
Driveways and garages almost everywhere, open lots at the mall, hospital and office parks. Easy flatbed access.
Route 10
Retail and dealer corridor through the middle of town; jughandles, heavy weekend traffic, and the mall interchange.
Eisenhower Parkway
Office park spine toward Roseland and Route 280; wide but fast.
South Livingston Avenue / Livingston Avenue
The main north-south street through the town center.
Northfield Avenue
Toward West Orange over the mountain.
Commuter lots
Dead batteries and lockouts at Park-and-ride at the Livingston Mall are regular roadside calls, most of them early morning and evening.
Learn Livingston's streets on the job; the dispatcher routes every call.
