Emergency Roadside Assistance in Elmhurst, IL

A breakdown never happens at a good time. Maybe your car won’t start in a grocery store parking lot, you picked up a nail on the way to work, or your keys are sitting on the seat of a locked car on a cold night. Elmhurst Towing’s Emergency Roadside Assistance gets you back on the road quickly and safely, so a bad moment doesn’t turn into a bad day.


We’re a local company serving Elmhurst and the surrounding communities, and we’re available 24/7, every day of the year. When you call, we send an experienced driver with the tools and equipment to fix the problem on the spot.


Flat Tire Changes

A flat tire can leave you stranded on a busy road or in an unfamiliar place. Changing a tire on the shoulder is also one of the riskier things a driver can do, especially in heavy traffic, rain, or snow. Our drivers will remove the flat and install your spare so you can get moving again.

To make things go smoothly, check that your spare is properly inflated and in good condition. If the spare is also flat, or the damage is more than a quick swap can solve, we can tow your vehicle to the tire shop or repair facility of your choice.


Dead Battery Jump Starts

Cold Illinois mornings, a dome light left on overnight, or an aging battery can all leave you with a car that won’t start. Our drivers use professional jump-start equipment to bring your battery back to life safely, with care for your vehicle’s electronics.

Once your engine is running, we recommend driving for a while or having your battery tested soon, since a battery that died once may do it again. If your vehicle won’t start even after a jump, the problem may be something else, like the alternator or starter. In that case, we can tow it to a shop for a proper diagnosis.


Vehicle Lockouts

Locking your keys inside your car is more common than you’d think, and it’s frustrating wherever it happens. Our lockout service uses professional tools designed to open your vehicle without damaging the door, lock, or paint. For your security, we may ask for identification or proof that the vehicle is yours before we begin.


Staying Safe While You Wait

If you break down on a busy road, your safety comes first. While you wait for our driver:

  • Turn on your hazard lights.
  • Pull as far off the road as you safely can.
  • Stay in your vehicle with your seatbelt on if you’re near fast-moving traffic.
  • Keep your doors locked until help arrives.
  • Be ready to tell us your exact location, using a nearby cross street, mile marker, or landmark.

When Roadside Help Becomes a Tow

Sometimes a quick fix isn’t enough. If your vehicle can’t be repaired roadside, you won’t need to call someone else. Elmhurst Towing also provides car, SUV, and truck towing, including heavy-duty and commercial vehicles, so we can move your vehicle to your home or the repair shop of your choice.
