Tow truck in uptown Bayonne: the first blocks off the Extension, the park-and-rides, and the most all-wheel drive per curb

From 34th Street north to 63rd and the Jersey City border. The 34th and 45th Street light rail stops with their park-and-rides, Stephen R. Gregg Park and Hudson County Park on Newark Bay, JFK Boulevard's apartment buildings, and the residential blocks that carry more all-wheel-drive SUVs than anywhere else on the peninsula.

Why uptown Bayonne sees the truck first, and why it is usually the rollback

Uptown is the first part of the city a truck off Exit 14A reaches, a few minutes down Route 440 or JFK Boulevard from the ramp, and its cars are mostly all-wheel-drive family SUVs on wider blocks, so the rollback is the default here, with the wheel-lift for the boxed-in sedans on the numbered streets and a jump before anything else at the park-and-rides, at the same $149 booking fee, $129 when you book online.

01

The 34th Street and 45th Street stops and their park-and-rides

Two surface lots that fill with commuters by seven and empty after six, which is when the batteries that sat all day are found. A jump is one flat price and needs no truck bed. When the car has to go to a shop, the lots are open-air and either truck loads in the row.

Say which stop and which row, and whether you are at the car or still on the platform.

02

JFK Boulevard and the apartment blocks

Kennedy Boulevard uptown is lined with apartment buildings, and their cars are on the boulevard's curb, in the lots behind and in a few garages beneath. The AWD share is high, so the rollback comes, and the boulevard is wide enough to tilt a deck. Garage cars come to the ramp on the wheel-lift or dollies first.

03

Stephen R. Gregg Park, Hudson County Park and the bay shore

The county park along Newark Bay from the 40s into the 50s, with lots, fields and a shore road. A car that will not start after a game is a jump. A car that slipped off a lot edge into the soft ground by the water is a winch-out on the rollback, and if it drives afterward that is the entire bill.

04

The blocks toward 63rd Street and the Jersey City line

The northern streets run out at the border with Greenville, and a shop on either side of it is a short run. Two-family houses with shared driveways, where the rollback loads from the street on the winch after the neighbor's car is moved. The driver phones ahead so that can happen before he arrives.

AWD on an uptown curb or a dead battery at 34th Street? Say which. The right truck is minutes off the exit.

FAQ

Uptown Bayonne: common questions

Short answers to what people ask about this page; the dispatcher can answer the rest.

How fast can a tow truck reach uptown Bayonne?

Uptown is the first part of the city off Exit 14A, so it is the shortest run from the yard, about 25 minutes when the truck starts in Linden and much less when it is already in Jersey City or on the peninsula. The dispatcher quotes from where the truck actually is.

Does my AWD SUV really need the rollback for a run to Jersey City?

Yes. Two driven wheels turning with the other two lifted runs the transfer case dry, and the distance does not matter. The rollback puts all four wheels on the deck and books at the same fee as the wheel-lift.

My car is dead at the 45th Street park-and-ride. What do you send?

A jump first, one flat price, no mileage. If it will not hold, the tow is added at the flat rate with the truck already in the lot, and the car rides whichever truck its drivetrain needs.

We share a driveway on a street in the 50s. Can the rollback fit?

Usually not fully, so the driver phones ahead so the neighbor's car can be moved, then winches your car down to the street on a straight line and loads there. The winch work is named before it happens.

Anything else? Ask on the call.
