Towing in Boston, MA

The job goes to an independent, licensed operator working in and around Boston. Tell us where the vehicle is and what happened, and we will say straight away whether we have someone for it, before you commit to anything.

For a light-duty vehicle the indicative band on this page runs $95 – $395, depending on how far the vehicle has to travel and what it takes to load it. That is a hook-up fee plus a rate for every loaded mile, built from national market ranges rather than a Boston rate card. Winching, a heavy vehicle or an after-hours call add to it, and the local operator confirms the final figure before anyone is dispatched.

Nor'easters bring heavy snow and coastal wind in the same storm, and the narrow colonial street grid leaves nowhere to put it. Frozen locks, dead batteries and cars plowed in are the routine winter calls.

The routes that carry the traffic: I-90, I-93, US-1, MA-2, and MA-3. Give dispatch the route number and the nearest exit or mile marker, plus your direction of travel. On a divided highway the side you are stopped on decides which way the truck has to approach.

Yes. Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) sit in this area. Airport property is managed land, so say which terminal, deck or lot the vehicle is in when you book: access rules, and where a truck is allowed to wait, are set by the airport authority rather than by the operator.

When the city declares a snow emergency, vehicles left on a posted snow emergency artery are ticketed and towed so the plows can work. Outside a declared emergency, police tows and private-property tows are separate systems with separate lots.

Street parking dominates in much of the city, so many EV drivers never charge at home and depend on public chargers. Cold weather reduces range and slows charging, and a stopped EV has to be recovered on a flatbed.
