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

Evanston sits on Lake Michigan twelve miles north of the Loop, with 78,110 residents as of the 2020 census. Northwestern University was founded here in 1851, before the city was incorporated, and it shapes the whole calendar: a student population that turns over every September produces lockouts, dead batteries and unfamiliar-with-the-signs parking tickets at a rate the rest of the North Shore does not see. Sheridan Road and Green Bay Road bring traffic down from the north, Ridge Avenue runs the interior, and Dempster, Main and Central Streets carry the east-west business districts, each anchored on its own Metra Union Pacific North station. The CTA Purple Line runs the length of the city, and the Howard Street station at the Chicago line is where the Red, Purple and Yellow lines meet. The important legal point for an Evanston driver is that this is a separate municipality with its own impound and its own administrative fee, not the City of Chicago pound system, so the numbers a neighbor quotes from a Chicago tow do not apply here. Evanston is in Cook County, which means private-property tows are done by Illinois Commerce Commission licensed relocators under the state relocation law. Operators cover the campus, the lakefront and all three business districts.
