Commercial Truck Towing in New Jersey: Box Trucks, Vans and Buses from Linden, 24/7

For a box truck, cargo van, bus or tractor, call (908) 444-0129 with the gross weight from the door sticker, whether it is loaded, and where it needs to go. The dispatcher matches the wrecker to the unit and quotes the job before it leaves Linden.

Why they call

Why commercial trucking call The NJ Towing Service

Commercial units cannot be moved by whatever truck happens to be free. A sprinter van, a straight truck and a loaded tractor need different equipment, and sending the wrong one wastes the first hour. That is why the first question is the GVWR, followed by whether the unit is loaded, whether the trailer is attached and whether the driver is still on hours.

Linden sits next to Port Newark and Port Elizabeth, the Routes 1 & 9 truck strip and the warehouse belt running south through Carteret, Woodbridge and Edison. Heavy-duty towing covers that ground every day, and the unit goes to your yard, your shop, a dealer or a tire shop, never to our yard.

Plenty of commercial calls never need the wrecker. A heavy-duty jump, a tire change with the unit's spare, a cab lockout or diesel delivery is a flat price, and if the job turns into a tow it is dispatched from the same call. A heavy tow is priced like every other tow: a hook fee sized to the wrecker the unit needs plus loaded mileage to the destination, quoted before the truck leaves. Recovery work, such as winching a unit out of soft ground or a second wrecker, is quoted separately and up front. The hour and the day do not change the number, and a unit that has to go farther than our map is quoted as long-distance towing.

One number, 24/7, price first.

Problems we solve

Problems we solve for commercial trucking

The calls we get most from commercial trucking, and what we do about each.

A loaded box truck that will not move

Tell the dispatcher what it is carrying and roughly how much, so a wrecker rated above the unit's weight is sent the first time.

A bus or shuttle down with passengers

Get passengers to safety first. Buses are lifted from the front on an underlift with the brakes released through the wrecker.

Dead batteries on a diesel

Heavy-duty jump packs for commercial batteries, and diesel delivery if the tank ran dry.

A stuck truck in a lot or on a soft shoulder

A winch-out pulls the unit back onto firm ground; recovery work is quoted up front.

Turnpike and Parkway breakdowns

The Authority's authorized garages handle those shoulders. We take the unit from the exit or the garage's lot to your destination.

Describe the problem; the dispatcher picks the truck.
