24/7 emergency towing, flatbed, wheel lift, lockouts, jump starts, and fuel delivery throughout Prairie Township and Central Ohio.
Call (740) 812-9489Prairie Township is the unincorporated stretch of western Franklin County around Galloway and Lincoln Village, with West Broad Street (US-40) running through it and I-70 and I-270 crossing its eastern side. It mixes subdivisions, apartment complexes and business strips along Broad with quieter roads toward Big Darby Creek. Because our Harrisburg Pike yard is only a few miles east, a Prairie Township call is a short run: most are reached in 20–40 minutes. We handle dead batteries, lockouts, tows to local shops, work vans and box trucks, and cars stuck on soft shoulders.

Usually 20–40 minutes, since the yard on Harrisburg Pike is only a few miles to the east. The driver heads west on I-70 or out West Broad Street, depending on which side of the township you are on. Rush-hour traffic at the I-70 and I-270 interchange is what most often stretches the wait, and dispatch builds that into the estimate it gives you on the phone. Mention a nearby cross street along Broad so the driver can find you quickly.
Yes, and those are the calls we get most often here. The driver carries a jump start pack and a tester, gets the engine running and tells you whether the battery will hold up or needs replacing. For keys locked inside, air wedges and long-reach tools open the door without scratching paint or tearing the weather seals. Most of these jobs are done in the driveway or parking space without a tow.
Steer onto the right shoulder if the car still rolls, switch on the hazard lights and keep your seat belt on while traffic passes, because this stretch of I-70 carries heavy truck and commuter traffic. If you are stuck in a lane, call 911 first. Then tell our dispatcher whether you were headed east or west and the last exit you saw, and we will send a truck to get you off the interstate.
Yes. Box trucks, delivery vans, work trucks and small RVs are part of our in-house medium-duty towing, so a stalled company vehicle on West Broad Street or in an industrial lot can go straight to your shop or dealer. Tell dispatch the vehicle type, whether it is loaded and where it is parked, and the dispatcher will quote the tow from our rate card before a truck is sent. Having the key and any fleet paperwork ready at pickup saves time for everyone.
If the car in your way is on a public road, only the police can order it towed, so call the Prairie Township Police Department's non-emergency line. If your own car was removed from an apartment or business lot, the posted towing sign at the entrance gives the company's name and number. Property managers in the township can set up private-property towing with us, with signage requirements explained up front.
You pick the destination: a shop on West Broad Street, your dealer, your home or one of our partner repair shops. If there is nowhere to take it yet, the car can wait in our Harrisburg Pike lot for the daily storage rate. The dispatcher prices the tow from our rate card before hookup, and you can pay with a card or cash once the car is delivered. Ask for an itemized total over the phone so there are no surprises later.
