How does towing work in Northwest Side?
Inside the city the hard part is rarely the tow. Six expressways converge here, the Kennedy, the Dan Ryan, the Eisenhower, the Stevenson, the Edens and the Bishop Ford, and on top of them runs a removal system most drivers only learn about the morning it happens to them: 107 miles of arterial where parking is banned from 3am to 7am between December 1 and April 1 whether or not it snows, plus a separate 500-mile ban that switches on once two inches are on the ground. The city also relocates vehicles rather than impounding them, sometimes with no signs posted at all, which is why the city itself tells people to call 311 before reporting a car stolen. Four auto pounds run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Auto Pound 2 at 103rd and Doty Avenue is one of two city pounds that take abandoned vehicles.
The Northwest Side is Chicago's Polish and Mexican bungalow belt and the Spanish-language center of the North Side. Belmont Cragin holds roughly 72,100 residents and is 78.1 percent Hispanic, Portage Park about 63,000 and 40.9 percent Hispanic, Hermosa 22,600 and 84.9 percent Hispanic, Montclare 14,300 and 60.7 percent, Dunning 41,200 and 36.7 percent, Jefferson Park 26,600 and 26.9 percent. The Kennedy Expressway cuts diagonally across the entire side with the Blue Line running in its median, and Milwaukee Avenue, the old Northwest Plank Road, runs the same diagonal at street level. Six Corners at Irving Park, Cicero and Milwaukee is one of the best-known intersections in the city, and the Portage Theater and the Copernicus Center at the Jefferson Park transit center anchor the two commercial cores. Montrose station sits in the Kennedy median. This is where the winter overnight parking ban bites hardest in residential Chicago: the ban runs on 107 miles of arterials from 3am to 7am, December 1 through April 1, whether or not snow is present, and Milwaukee, Irving Park and Cicero are exactly that kind of street. Bungalow blocks with short driveways and shared gangways produce the blocked-driveway calls the city routes through 312-746-4520. Operators cover the Kennedy corridor, Six Corners and the Milwaukee Avenue spine. Every page of this site, the quote form included, is published in Spanish as well as English, and a message left in Spanish is read in Spanish.
How much does towing cost in Northwest Side?
Every tow in Northwest Side is quoted before the truck rolls, and the number you hear on the phone is the number on the invoice. A wheel lift and a flatbed are different prices because they are different jobs. Confirm the method for all-wheel drive, electric vehicles, and anything low-clearance, damaged or non-rolling.
After-hours work is quoted on the call, not added at the drop. If what you need is a jump start or an unlock rather than a tow, we will tell you that instead.

Do you have flatbeds for Northwest Side?
