How the price is built

Booking fee plus miles: how our company prices a Perth Amboy tow

A Perth Amboy tow has two parts, the $149 booking fee ($129 online) and the mileage to your destination, both stated before dispatch, and a third line appears only if the car cannot roll or steer and you have agreed to dollies or winching.

01

The booking fee: $149 on the phone, $129 online

It covers our truck coming to Perth Amboy and your vehicle going onto it, at any hour. Book through the dispatcher and it is $149; book yourself on the booking page and it is $129. It applies to cars, SUVs and pickups on a flatbed or wheel-lift, while vans, box trucks, buses and tractors are quoted for the larger truck they need.

02

The mileage, from your car to your choice

Miles count from where the vehicle sits to the address you name. A shop inside Perth Amboy or just over the line in Woodbridge or Sayreville is a small figure. A run to the shore, Staten Island or another state is quoted as a long distance tow with the tolls already in it.

03

Accounts for merchants, carriers, dealers and shops

Smith Street businesses, carriers at the Arthur Kill terminals, dealers on Route 35 and body shops across the Victory Bridge can hold an account. They get a rate sheet, a direct line, booked windows and net terms on one monthly invoice. The contact page explains how to start one.

04

What we never charge

No surcharge for nights, weekends or holidays. No fuel charge on top of the miles and no hook fee apart from the booking fee.

No charge for a passenger. No storage or release fee, since the car goes straight to the address you gave and we keep no lot.

Card and cash cost the same.

Give the dispatcher three things, the location, the destination and the vehicle, and she turns them into one total.

Roadside prices

Jump starts, tire changes, lockouts and fuel in Perth Amboy: one flat price each

Every company truck that comes to Perth Amboy carries a jump pack, tire tools, a lockout kit and fuel, so each of those fixes is one flat price with no mileage added, and the dispatcher offers the fix first whenever it will get you going.

Jump start

Sized for cars, diesels and light trucks. Common at the station lots after work, in the hospital garage after a shift, in the marina lot after a day on the water, and in a Harbortown driveway on a cold morning. If the battery will not take a charge, the visit becomes a tow at the flat fee.

Flat tire change

The spare goes on where you stopped, whether on Convery Boulevard, New Brunswick Avenue or a side street off State Street. No spare, or two flats, means a tow to the tire shop you choose.

Car lockout

Keys locked in at the station, near City Hall, at a Route 35 plaza or by the marina. Opened with damage-free tools, with no broken glass.

Fuel delivery

Out of gas on Route 440, on the bridge approach or on Sadowski Parkway. Enough gas or diesel to reach a station, at any hour.

Not sure the car needs a tow? Say so, and the cheaper fix goes out first.

Company versus broker

Why our Perth Amboy quote reads differently from a referral line's number

Our quote is a published booking fee, a mileage figure to the place you chose, and a receipt with our company name, while a referral line quotes a low figure to win the call, hands the job to a truck it does not control, and leaves the real total to be argued at the curb.

A referral line has no truck, so it cannot know what the truck it finds will charge. Our dispatcher can see the truck, knows the driver, and quotes from the price list the whole fleet uses.

Whoever you call in Perth Amboy, ask for three things: the booking fee, the per-mile rate and the destination it applies to, and the name that will appear on the receipt.

After a crash the stakes rise. A truck you did not call may haul your car to a lot that charges every day it sits there, plus a fee to release it.

Call your own towing company from the scene, tell the officer where the car is going, and that lot never enters the picture. The itemized receipt is what an insurer or roadside plan asks for when it pays you back.

Asking for the total is free, it is fixed, and it is the same from every company truck.

FAQ

Pricing: common questions

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

Is $149 all I pay for a tow in Perth Amboy?

$149 books the truck and loads the car. The only addition is the mileage to your destination, quoted before dispatch.

Why is booking online $129?

You fill in the details yourself, so the dispatcher does not have to, and the $20 difference is yours. On a busy road or the bridge, call instead.

Do Route 35 dealers and body shops get account rates?

Dealers, body shops, carriers and merchants can hold an account with a rate sheet, booked windows and net terms on one monthly invoice.

Does the price go up after midnight?

No. The company works the same price list at every hour, and nothing changes for nights, weekends or holidays.

Will I be charged for storage?

No. The company has no lot, so your car goes straight to the address you gave and there is nothing to store.

Can my insurer use your receipt?

Yes. It is itemized under the company's name and number, with the booking fee, mileage and any extra work on separate lines.

Anything else? Ask on the call.
