What should I tell the dispatcher?
- Where you are: the freeway and direction, or the street and nearest cross street.
- The year, make, model and color of the car.
- What happened: it won’t start, a flat with no spare, an accident, or it’s stuck.
- Where the car should go: your mechanic, a dealer, a body shop or your home.
- Whether the keys are with the car.
What should I do while I wait?
- Move the car off the road if you can do it safely, and turn on the hazard lights.
- On the freeway, get out on the side away from traffic only if it’s safe, and wait behind a barrier or well off the shoulder.
- Take your phone, wallet and valuables out of the car.
- If anyone is hurt, call 911 first.
California’s Slow Down, Move Over law asks drivers to move over or slow down when they pass a stopped vehicle with flashing lights. Since January 1, 2026, that includes any stopped vehicle, such as a broken-down car with its hazard lights on. Details are on the California DMV’s 2026 new laws page.
Could it be a roadside fix instead?
Sometimes, yes. A dead battery may only need a jump start, a flat with a good spare a tire change, an empty tank fuel delivery, and keys locked inside a car lockout visit. Tell us what happened and we’ll tell you which one you need.

Frequently asked questions
Do you tow luxury and lowered cars?
Yes. Luxury, lowered and all-wheel drive cars ride on a flatbed, so the wheels stay off the road.
Can you tow a car with a flat tire?
Yes. If you have a usable spare, we can also put it on so you can drive away instead.
Do you give free estimates?
Yes. You get a free estimate and an upfront price before we start. Extra work found on site can add to the price.
