Towing for Body Shops and Mechanics in New Jersey: We Deliver to the Shop the Owner Chooses
When your customer breaks down or crashes, they can call (908) 444-0129 and name your shop. We deliver the car there, not to a yard of ours, and after hours it is left in your lot with the key in your drop box.
Why body shops and mechanics call The NJ Towing Service
Independent shops lose work when a customer's car is towed somewhere else first. Our rule is simple: the owner chooses the destination, and if they name your shop, the car goes to your shop. Give your customers our number and tell them to say your shop's name on the call.
Cars arrive in the condition they left. AWD, electric, lowered and non-running cars ride a flatbed. The driver photographs the car at pickup and drop-off, and the owner gets an itemized receipt.
Shops also call us to move a car between locations: from a customer's driveway to the shop, from the shop to a specialist, a transmission or glass shop, or to the dealer for warranty work. A local tow can be dispatched now or scheduled for a window you choose, and a car going to a specialist beyond our map is quoted as long-distance towing. We do not repair cars, sell parts or run a body shop, which is why we have no reason to steer a car anywhere but where the owner says. After a crash, an accident tow follows the same rule. Every tow is a flat hook fee plus a per-mile rate to the destination, quoted before dispatch, with no charge for nights, weekends or holidays.
One number, 24/7, price first.
Call nowProblems we solve for body shops and mechanics
The calls we get most from body shops and mechanics, and what we do about each.
After-hours drops
At a closed shop the car is left in your lot with the key in the drop box, and the owner gets a photo of the drop-off.
Cars that will not roll or steer
Winch, dollies and skates load a car with a locked wheel or a broken suspension.
Moving a car to a specialist
Shop to shop, shop to dealer, or out of state as a long-distance run, quoted before dispatch.
AWD, electric and lowered cars
They ride a flatbed with soft straps, with ramps for low cars, so nothing new is damaged on the way to your bay.
Customer cars stuck at another yard
On the owner's signed release we pick up the car and deliver it to your shop.
Describe the problem; the dispatcher picks the truck.
