Johnstown Towing for Licking County's Northwest Corner

Johnstown is one of our farthest regular stops, roughly 25 crow-flight miles from Harrisburg Pike, and further once you count the actual roads. Drivers usually take I-270 and SR 161 east, then US 62 into the village. Because of that distance, expect the dispatcher to quote a live arrival time and to be frank with you if it is a long one.

Yes. The village center is quiet compared with city streets, so loading on Coshocton Street is usually simple. The driver will park ahead of your car, put out cones if needed and winch it onto the deck. If you can coast into a side street or the square's parking, that makes it even easier.

We do. Mink Street, Green Chapel Road and the surrounding country roads carry much more traffic than they used to, and shoulders are soft. If you are stuck, stay in the car with your hazards on, unless it is unsafe. Give us the road name and the nearest crossroad, since many rural addresses are hard to find at night.

Yes. A winch-out from the roadside is a common job in Licking County in winter. The driver anchors the flatbed on solid ground and draws the car back onto the pavement. If it runs and has no damage, you can drive away; if a wheel or axle took a hit, we load it instead. Read more about our winch-out service.

Yes. Some Johnstown drivers prefer a shop in Newark, others a dealer in New Albany or Columbus. The flatbed handles either direction, and the dispatcher will quote both if you want to compare. Arriving after closing time? The car spends the night in our yard and goes over first thing the next morning.

Our four flatbeds are light-duty, so we tow pickups, cars, SUVs and smaller vans. For box trucks or bigger work vehicles, we arrange a partner with the right equipment. Contractors with several vehicles can ask about a fleet towing account to simplify billing, with one number to call and photo records of every pickup.

Distance is the biggest factor for Johnstown calls, since the truck travels a long way from southwest Columbus before the tow starts. Destination, hour and any extra labor make up the rest. The figure is settled on the phone before a truck goes anywhere, and our rates page breaks down each part. If you are only locked out or need a jump, the bill is lower because nothing has to be carried.

We regularly work in New Albany, Sunbury, Pataskala, Westerville and Gahanna. If your car broke down in Johnstown but you live in one of those towns, the driver can take it straight home or to your usual shop. Combining the pickup and the drop-off into one quoted job keeps things simple when you are far from home and dealing with a dead car on a country road.
