24/7 Towing & Roadside Assistance in Bexley

Bexley is a small, mostly residential city just east of downtown, with Alum Creek on its west edge and Whitehall to the east. East Main Street and East Broad Street carry most of the traffic, and the Main Street business district and Capital University bring the parking-lot calls. The rest are driveway and garage jobs on tree-lined residential streets: dead batteries, lockouts, and cars that need a careful flatbed move. Trucks come from our Harrisburg Pike yard on the southwest side and typically arrive in 20–40 minutes.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can you get to Bexley?

Usually 20–40 minutes. Bexley is close to downtown, so the run from our southwest-side yard is short on paper; the variable is I-70 and I-71 traffic through the city center. If a truck is already on the east side, it's quicker. Dispatch gives you a real ETA on the phone, and if the estimate changes while the driver is en route, we call you. A cross street or house number in the first minute of the call saves the driver time on arrival.

Do you help near Main Street and Capital University?

Yes. The shops and restaurants along East Main Street and the Capital University campus lots generate a lot of lockout and jump-start calls. Tell dispatch the business name or the campus lot and the nearest cross street. Students: have your ID and the car's location handy, and if you're on campus, let us know if the lot requires a permit so we can plan the pickup. A dead battery after class is usually a quick jump start on the spot, not a tow.

Can you move a classic, luxury or electric car without damage?

That's a flatbed job. The car rides with all four wheels off the ground, secured with soft straps instead of hooks on the frame, so nothing drags and nothing scratches. Lowered cars get extra ramp angle. EVs like Teslas always travel with all four wheels off the ground, on a wheel-lift with dollies or the flatbed; if the 12V battery is dead, we jump it so transport mode can free the wheels, or move the car on dollies if it will not wake, then take it where you need, including the Tesla Service Center at Easton.

My car won't start in a narrow driveway or old garage. Can you get it out?

Usually, yes. Many Bexley homes have narrow drives and detached garages, some reached from an alley. A wheel-lift truck with dollies can back in, lift the car and pull it out where a flatbed won't fit. If the car is deep in a tight garage, the driver will winch it out to the driveway first. Tell dispatch the width of the drive and whether there's alley access so we send the right truck.

Someone is parked across my driveway on the street. Can you tow them?

Not on our own. A car on a public street can only be towed at the request of police, so call the Bexley Police non-emergency line and they'll decide whether it gets removed. If the car is on your private property, that's different, and we can walk you through what's required. For apartment and business owners, we handle private-property enforcement with proper signage and records. Jot down the plate number and how long the car has been there before you make that call.

What happens after the car is on the truck?

You pick the destination: your mechanic on Main Street, a dealer, your home, or a partner repair shop. If you need time to decide, the car can stay at our Harrisburg Pike lot at the daily storage rate listed on our rate card. You'll get the full price before we hook up, and you can pay by card or cash when the job's done. Electric vehicles are priced from the separate EV rate card, so mention it if yours is one.
