What drives the price

Why out-of-town tow pricing costs what it does in Cicero

I-88 runs west toward Rockford, the Quad Cities and Iowa, and Aurora and Elgin sit at the outer edge of the metro where a long-distance quote starts making more sense than a repair. The distance price gets stated at the start, in writing if you want it, and it covers the reach to get to you as well as the run itself.

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.

Cicero pricing FAQs

Common Cicero cost questions

How much does a long-distance tow cost from Cicero?

Out-of-metro tows from Cicero are priced for the whole route rather than by a running meter, so a run to Milwaukee, Indianapolis or St. Louis is one quoted number that already includes the miles. Call (773) 830-6930 for a route quote.

Is long-distance towing priced per mile in Cicero?

A base plus a per-loaded-mile rate is how the quote gets built, but what you are given is one number before an operator hooks up. Mileage is not added at delivery. The figure quoted on the phone covers door to door.

Can you tow my car out of state from Cicero?

Yes. Chicago is where the interstates meet, so moves toward Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan, Iowa and Missouri are routine from here. The full route is quoted before the truck leaves, including the reach needed to get to you.

Is a long-distance tow cheaper than shipping my car?

For a single vehicle on a direct route a tow is often faster and comparable in cost to broker car shipping, with no multi-day wait for a carrier to fill up. Call (773) 830-6930 and compare the two before you book either.
