Tow truck on Route 440 and at Bayonne Crossing: the road the trucks come in on, the open lots, and the soft ground by the bay

Wide open lots with charging spaces, cart corrals and plenty of room for a rollback to drop its deck. Keys locked inside, a battery that quit while you shopped, an electric car that will not wake at the charger: all common, and the first two are one flat price each with no tow.

An electric car that has to leave rides the rollback with the straps through the wheels, never a wheel-lift.

The Turnpike's Hudson County Extension lands in Bayonne here, and it is also the road our trucks use from Linden. On the New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway the shoulder itself is served by the Turnpike Authority's authorized garages; book with us anyway, and once the authorized truck has the car off the highway we take it from the exit or the garage's lot to the shop or driveway you choose, at the same flat quoted price.

Once the car is off the Extension and onto Route 440 or in the garage's lot, it is a direct dispatch to us and the rest of the tow is the ordinary fee plus miles.

Route 440 through Bayonne is a state road, wide and fast, with soft ground and drainage on the bay side. Direct dispatch, both directions. A dead car at a signal is a wheel-lift for speed; a car that slid off the pavement in the rain is a winch-out on the rollback, pulled straight back, and if it drives afterward that is the bill.

The club sits on the Newark Bay shore off Route 440, reached by its own road across the flats. A car that will not start in the club lot is a jump. A car that has left the road for the marsh edge is the rollback's winch, and the driver looks at the ground before he commits the truck to it.
