Flatbed Towing for Italian Village, East of High

Yes, as long as the driver can get through the gate and the garage is tall enough for the carrier. Have the gate code ready or ask the leasing office to let us in. If the car is on a lower deck with a low ceiling, we can bring it up to the entrance before loading. Tell the dispatcher the building name and your parking level when you call.

The festival takes over the blocks around St. John the Baptist each October, and some streets close or fill up with visitors. We can still reach you, but it may take the driver longer to find a clear spot to load. If your car is parked inside the festival area, we may need to wait for a street to reopen or have you meet us at the edge of it.

That is usually where we start. A dead battery is a $75 roadside call, and the driver tests the battery and charging system after the jump. If the battery is finished, we can fit a replacement battery on the spot, or tow the car to your shop if something else is wrong. Night and weekend surcharges still apply, and the dispatcher includes them in the price you hear on the phone.

Because the I-71 exit at Fifth Avenue only works in one direction: there is no off-ramp for northbound traffic. Our trucks come from the southwest side, so the driver plans around that, often leaving I-71 earlier and finishing the trip on local streets. Knowing the closest cross street to you helps the driver pick the quickest approach, and so does telling us which way your car is facing.

On most Village blocks, yes. If the carrier cannot get alongside your car, the driver can load from the end of the block or use a winch line to bring the car out to a wider spot. Cars parked in tight between others sometimes need dollies under the wheels. None of that changes the hook-up fee, but winching beyond a simple pull-out is billed at $150 an hour.

Yes. Wherever you want it to go, we take it: a dealer, an independent mechanic, a collision shop chosen by your insurer, or your own driveway. Loaded miles are billed at $7 each. No shop in mind? We can point you to an independent partner that diagnoses first and quotes before any repair. We do not fix cars ourselves, so there is no pressure to use anyone in particular.

We do. Bikes ride on the flatbed in a wheel chock with soft straps over the frame, never through the wheels or bars. Scooters and small bikes go the same way. Let us know the make and model so the driver brings the right chock, and mention any fairing or low exhaust. Bikes parked on a sidewalk or behind a building can be walked out to the truck first. See motorcycle towing for details.

Italian Village calls often continue to the Short North across High Street, Weinland Park to the north, Victorian Village to the west and Downtown over I-670. The full list is on our Columbus page. Because these blocks are close together, a driver finishing a job in one of them can sometimes reach you sooner than a truck coming straight from the yard. The dispatcher knows where every carrier is and will send whichever one makes sense.
