Safety comes before a tow
If anyone is injured, there is fire or smoke, or the vehicle blocks moving traffic, call 911 and follow the responding authority. Do not wait beside an active lane or try to move a damaged car unsafely.
Give a usable pickup point
Share the street and cross street, travel direction, nearest building or entrance, and whether the vehicle is in a tunnel, garage, bridge approach, or restricted roadway. The exact position matters more than a neighborhood name.
Describe what the truck will meet
Explain collision damage, locked wheels, leaks, missing keys, and whether the vehicle can roll or steer. Ask the operator to confirm equipment, availability, estimated arrival, and the complete quote before dispatch.
When a vehicle stops near a major road
On Woodhaven Boulevard or the Southern State Parkway, the travel direction and nearest exit are as important as the street name. If the position is hazardous, call 911 and follow official directions before requesting a private tow.
