24 hour towing cost in Woodbridge, NJ: $149 flat booking fee, $129 online, and the night rate is the day rate
The booking fee does not move and it is printed on this page. Below: what that fee buys, which line items can follow it, which ones cannot, and how to learn your exact total in under a minute at any hour.
A Woodbridge tow is the $149 booking fee plus mileage to wherever you choose, and that is the entire formula
Price a Woodbridge tow like this: $149 to book it by phone or $129 to book it online, then mileage to the address you give, read to you on the call; winch or dolly charges exist only for a car that cannot roll, and only once you have heard the figure and agreed.
| What | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Booking fee by phone | $149 | Dispatch and hook-up, any hour |
| Booking fee online | $129 | $20 off when you book it yourself |
| Mileage to your destination | Quoted on the call | Before the truck moves. You pick the shop. |
| Jump start · tire · lockout · fuel | One flat price each | No mileage. Tried first when it can solve it. |
| Winch or dollies | Only if the car will not roll | Named before the work, you decide |
| Night, weekend, holiday, fuel surcharge | None | 3 a.m. costs what 3 p.m. costs |
| Storage or release fee | None | The car goes to your shop, not a yard |
The booking fee: $149 by phone, $129 online
This is the charge for rolling a truck to you and getting the car onto it, and it reads the same on the receipt at 4 a.m. as at 4 p.m. Phone it in and it is $149; type it in online and it is $129, because a form costs us less than a dispatcher's minutes. Cars, SUVs and pickups on a wheel-lift or rollback are covered by it, while a van, box truck or bus rides a medium or heavy-duty unit that is priced separately.
The mileage
Counted from the spot where the car sits to the address where it lands, at a rate the dispatcher states out loud. Township runs, or a hop to Rahway, Edison, Perth Amboy or Carteret, add only a few miles. A run to the shore, into New York or past a state line is a long distance tow, priced with tolls and the empty trip back already inside the figure.
Winching, dollies and recovery
These appear on a bill only when a car refuses to roll or steer: a crumpled front end, a stall in a flooded Sewaren street, two wheels off the grass in a park, a steering lock with the wheels cranked hard. Most of the time the dispatcher can tell from your description and prices it during the call. When the driver finds something you could not have known, he says the figure out loud before touching the winch.
What never appears on the receipt
No night, weekend or holiday charge. No fuel surcharge. No fee for one or two people in the cab.
Storage is not billed when the car lands at your own destination, and there is no release fee attached. Asking what it would cost is free.
No change to the $149 because the mall closed three hours ago.
Three answers, where the car is, where it should go and what it is, and dispatch reads you the total.
Get a quote nowBook online · $129Jump start, flat tire, lockout and fuel delivery in Woodbridge are one flat price each
A jump, a tire swap, a lockout or a can of fuel brought to you anywhere in Woodbridge carries a single flat charge, no mileage attached, and on most nights the car leaves under its own power afterward.
Jump start
Dead battery in a Metropark garage, the mall deck or a Colonia driveway. Commercial jump packs for cars, trucks and diesels. If the battery will not take the charge, the tow is quoted right there.
Flat tire change
Your spare goes on safely on the shoulder of Route 9 or at the curb on Oak Tree Road. No spare, or two flats, and we tow you to the tire shop you choose at the tow rate.
Car lockout
Keys shut in the car or the trunk on Main Street, in a warehouse lot in Keasbey or at the Sewaren waterfront. Damage-free tools; the glass stays whole.
Unsure whether it is a tow at all? Tell the dispatcher. The roadside charge is smaller, so that is the first attempt.
Call (908) 666-3168What we towWhy a 2 a.m. quote in Woodbridge should read exactly like a 2 p.m. quote
Night towing in Woodbridge is where the surprise fees hide, so we charge the daytime price after dark and print it on the receipt; a quote from somewhere else with an after-hours line on it is the warning sign.
Companies that charge for after hours are charging you for waking somebody up, and they can, because a person alone on Route 9 at 2 a.m. rarely argues. Our night shift is rostered, awake and already dressed, which removes both the cost and the excuse.
Storage is the other place money disappears. Let an uninvited truck haul a wrecked car off Route 9 to its own lot and by the time you locate it, three days of storage and a release charge sit on top of the tow. Naming your own tow company and your own body shop from the roadside is the one decision that keeps a Woodbridge accident from doubling in price.
Have a roadside plan or towing coverage on your policy? Nothing stops you from ringing us straight away, paying what was quoted and handing the itemized receipt to the plan afterward. After midnight that beats waiting for a plan to find a willing contractor, and the receipt is formatted the way reimbursement desks expect.
Ask for the number. It costs nothing, it is flat, and it is the same at every hour.
Call (908) 666-3168Back to 24 hour towing WoodbridgePricing: common questions
Short answers to what people ask about this page; the dispatcher can answer the rest.
Is towing more expensive at night in Woodbridge?
It is not. $149 to book by phone, $129 online, and the mileage rate, all unchanged at midnight, on Sundays and on holidays. Look for an after-hours line on our receipt and you will not find one.
Why is it $129 online but $149 on the phone?
Booking online yourself saves the dispatcher's time, and the $20 saved goes to you. If you are on a shoulder, call anyway; the phone is quicker and the gap is small next to a long wait.
Is the quote firm?
The booking fee never moves, and the rest of the quote reflects what you described on the call. Should the driver arrive and find, say, a steering lock with the wheels turned that calls for dollies, he names that extra before he lifts anything.
Do you charge storage?
A car delivered to the shop, dealer or driveway you named is never billed storage, and that is where every tow of ours ends. Only if you specifically ask us to hold a vehicle does a daily rate come up, and the dispatcher states it before agreeing.
Can I get a receipt for my insurer or my roadside plan?
Yes. The driver hands over, or dispatch emails, a receipt that breaks out the booking fee, the miles and any winch or dolly work, laid out the way adjusters and plan reimbursement desks want to see it.
How can I pay in the middle of the night?
Card of any major brand, Apple Pay, Google Pay or cash, settled with the driver at the curb whatever the hour. Fleets are invoiced monthly on net terms.
Anything else? Ask on the call.
