Worthington Towing Along High Street and Wilson Bridge Road

Worthington mixes an 1803 village square with an outerbelt business corridor, and our carriers spend time in both.

Worthington lies close to twelve miles north of our Harrisburg Pike yard, on the far side of the Ohio State campus. The usual route is SR-315 north to the Dublin-Granville Road (SR-161) interchange, or the outerbelt over to US-23 when the call is on the city's north end. Either way, High Street runs straight through the middle of town and ties everything together.

Old Worthington, laid out around the Village Green, is all brick sidewalks, historic houses and on-street parking in front of restaurants and shops. Calls there are often lockouts, dead batteries or a car that won't start after dinner, and loading has to be done carefully with pedestrians and parked cars close by. North of downtown, the Wilson Bridge Road corridor holds offices, hotels and the Worthington Gateway development, where weekday parking-lot calls are the norm. The busiest highway work comes from the I-270 and US-23 interchange and the SR-161 crossing at SR-315, where merging and stop-and-go traffic produce stalls and minor collisions.

Two high schools, the community center and the arts center keep evenings busy, and every car we move here goes on a flatbed. If you need a hand, dial (614) 633-8163 or fill out the web request; the price is agreed before a carrier heads your way. Collision cleanup is covered on the accident towing page.

Where calls come from

Roads we get called to in Worthington

    Worthington's main road from the Village Green north toward the outerbelt, with curbside parking downtown and busy turn lanes farther up.

    The east-west route through town, with a diamond interchange at SR-315 and a signal at High Street where long queues form.

  • Wilson Bridge Road

    The office and hotel corridor north of downtown, recently reworked where it meets High Street at Worthington Gateway.

  • Linworth Road

    A residential route on the west side near Linworth Park, where most calls are driveway jobs and school traffic.

Towing in Worthington: common questions

What is the drive like from your yard to Worthington?

Worthington is close to twelve miles north of our Harrisburg Pike yard. Most carriers take SR-315 north to SR-161, or follow I-270 to the US-23 exit when the address is on the north side of town. Rush-hour traffic on SR-315 and the outerbelt can add time, so your arrival window is worked out from live conditions, not a stock answer.

Can you tow a car parked around the Village Green in Old Worthington?

Yes. Parking there is along the curb, so the carrier stops beside your car, sets out cones and winches it onto the bed. The driver takes extra care with pedestrians and the cars in front and behind. Plenty of Green calls end with no tow at all, just a boost or a door opened with an air wedge. Weekend mornings are busy, so the driver may ask you to watch for the truck.

My car died at the I-270 and US-23 interchange. What do I do?

If you are on a ramp or shoulder, keep your belt on, switch on the hazard lights and stay in the car unless you can get well away from traffic. Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Then call us and say which ramp you are on and which way you were going. Police may want the car cleared quickly there, and our driver coordinates with them.

Do you handle calls in the Wilson Bridge Road office parks?

Yes. Office workers along Wilson Bridge Road often call us when a car won't start at the end of the day. Give us the street number of the office building plus a hint like 'north row by the loading dock.' Our operator either revives it with a booster pack or hauls it to whatever garage you trust. If you must leave before the truck arrives, arrange to leave the keys with building security.

Can you take my car to a shop on High Street?

Yes. Several repair shops and dealers sit along High Street and the US-23 corridor. Name the shop and we will deliver the car there. If the shop has closed for the day, the car can go into their night-drop area with their permission, or spend the night at our yard and be dropped off when they open.

How much is a tow in Worthington?

Expect the figure to move with the distance to your drop-off, the hour, and any extra effort like dragging a car out of a snowy ditch or a cramped curb space. Worthington is within our regular range, and the dispatcher gives you the full amount before a truck goes out. The rates page explains how each part of the price is set.

My car slid on an icy street near Park Boulevard Park. Can you pull it out?

Yes. The hills around that park get slick in winter, and cars sometimes slide into the curb or off the road. A slow, steady winch pull returns the car to solid pavement so the wheels and bumpers are not damaged, then checks whether it can be driven. If not, it goes on the flatbed to the shop of your choice.

Which towns close to Worthington do you serve?

We cover the communities that ring Worthington, including Powell to the northwest, Upper Arlington to the southwest, Westerville to the east and Minerva Park and Lewis Center nearby. One driver often handles calls in several of them during the same shift, which keeps the whole north side well covered. Follow either link above for the streets and landmarks we know best in that town.
