24 Hour Towing in Newark, NJ
Breakdowns don't keep office hours. Neither do we. Brick City runs trucks around the clock, every day of the year, and when you call after midnight a real dispatcher in Newark picks up, not a machine and not a call center three states away. Tell us where you are and what happened, and a truck starts rolling.
The Middle-of-the-Night Calls Are Our Bread and Butter
Most of our emergency work happens when everyone else has gone home. Last shift alone we jumped a nurse's car in the University Hospital garage at 2 a.m., winched a rideshare driver out of a snowbank off Springfield Ave, and towed a stalled sedan off the shoulder of I-280 before it got clipped. Night work is a different animal, colder, darker, more dangerous roadside, and it's exactly what fifteen years on these streets prepares you for.
What Counts as an Emergency Tow
Anything that leaves you stuck: a breakdown on a live lane, a no-start in a bad neighborhood, a flat you can't change in the rain, an accident, or a car that just won't turn over in your driveway at dawn before work. We handle jump starts, lockouts, fuel delivery and tire changes on the same 24-hour basis, so a lot of calls end with you driving away instead of riding on the flatbed.
Honest ETAs, Even at 4 a.m.
We won't tell you "five minutes" when it's twenty. In the city overnight you're usually looking at 20 to 35 minutes; a little longer if the weather's ugly or you're way out on the edge of our area. You get a real number and the truck number so you know who's coming.
What To Do Until We Get There
- Get yourself and any passengers off the roadway, behind a barrier if there is one.
- Turn on your hazard lights; set flares or a reflective triangle if you have them.
- Stay out of the car if you're on a live highway shoulder, especially at night.
- Call us at (862) 369-7600 with your exact location, a cross street or mile marker helps.
- Keep your phone visible so the driver can spot you; we carry chargers if yours is dead.
