What drives the price

Why car lockout pricing costs what it does in Cicero

Retail lots along Route 59, Ogden Avenue and Cermak Road generate lockouts all day, and the Metra stations generate them at both ends of the commute. The technique is the same across all of them; the difference is how far the truck has to travel to reach you.

Dense two-flat and bungalow blocks with almost no off-street parking, on a commercial spine, Cermak Road, that carries heavy traffic all day. Household incomes here run well below the county median, which means a tow bill lands harder than it does further west.

Local context

How we work Cicero

Cicero holds 85,268 residents, the eleventh-most populous municipality in Illinois, with a median household income of $53,726. More than 89 percent of the town is Hispanic, which makes it the most Hispanic municipality in the state. Cermak Road, once 22nd Street, is the commercial spine, and the Czech and Bohemian storefronts that lined it were replaced through the 1980s and 1990s by Spanish-language businesses. Ogden Avenue, Roosevelt Road, Cicero Avenue and 26th Street carry the rest of the traffic, and the Cicero Metra station on the BNSF line, near Cicero Avenue and 26th Street, sits on the Aurora to Union Station run. Hawthorne Race Course still runs on the Cicero and Stickney line, with the former Sportsman's Park site just north of it. The towing picture here comes straight out of the housing: dense two-flats and bungalows, minimal off-street parking, and incomes well below the county median, which means a tow bill lands harder here than it does in Elmhurst. Two pieces of Illinois law are worth knowing in Cicero. If you get back to your car before the relocator has finished hooking it, they have to let you take it. And if you cannot reach the relocator by phone for a full hour after your first try, the law says all the towing and storage fees are waived. Operators cover Cermak, 26th Street, the Metra station and the residential grid, and we answer in Spanish.
