Towing and roadside help anywhere in Shorewood
Shorewood is a straight shot down Route 59 from Plainfield, and the stretch of I-55 that runs past it is one of the busiest pieces of highway in our area. Between the US-52 and Route 59 interchanges, the Towne Center retail, Hammel Woods and the neighborhoods like Kipling Estates and River Crossing, we’re in Shorewood every week.
Because it sits where I-55, US-52 and Route 59 come together, Shorewood sees a lot of breakdowns from drivers passing through as well as from residents. Either way, the call works the same: tell us where you are, hear the price, and watch for our flatbed.
Roads we cover in Shorewood
I-55 at the US-52 and Route 59 exits, US-52 (Jefferson Street), Route 59 (Brook Forest Avenue), Black Road, River Road, Mound Road and Seil Road, plus every residential street and parking lot in between.
Services we bring to Shorewood drivers
- 24/7 Emergency Towing: Breakdown, no-start or collision at any hour: a dispatcher answers, you hear one flat price, and a flatbed heads your way.
- Flatbed Towing: Every tow rides fully on the deck. The right way to move AWD, electric, lowered, collector and crash-damaged vehicles.
- Roadside Assistance: Dead battery, flat tire, lockout or empty tank: a technician comes to you and fixes it on the spot, 24/7.
- Accident Towing: After a crash, the damage decides the method: flatbed, recovery first if it’s off the road, and an itemized receipt for your claim.
- Classic Car Towing: Flatbed only, wheel straps and a slow, shallow load: for cars whose drivetrain, tires and trim shouldn’t roll behind a truck.
- EV & Tesla Towing: Electric cars ride only on the deck, all four wheels off the road, so the motors and the battery pack are never at risk on the way.
- Motorcycle Towing: Breakdown, flat or a spill you’d rather not ride home from: the bike rides upright on the deck, strapped for its make and condition.
- Medium-Duty Towing: Box trucks, cargo vans, step vans and shuttle buses ride on a long flatbed rated for the weight, strapped for their load and condition.
- Lockout Service: Keys locked inside, in the trunk or in a running car: we open most vehicles without a scratch, any hour.
- Jump Starts: Dead battery at home, at work or at the store: we boost it, watch how it recovers and tell you if the battery is done.
- Commercial & Semi Jump Starts: Diesels, dual-battery fleet units, box trucks and semis need far more cranking power than a car booster. We bring it, and tow if the jump fails.
- Flat Tire Change: Good spare and a safe spot? We mount it where you stopped. If a swap won’t work, the same truck carries the car to your tire shop.
- Fuel Delivery: Ran dry on the way to the pump? We bring enough fuel to get you to the nearest station, any hour.
