Running dry happens to careful drivers, usually because a low-fuel light gives a range estimate that assumes conditions you are not in. The fix is simple; the mistake people make is walking for it.
Walking a highway shoulder or crossing lanes to reach a station on the other side is the single most dangerous choice available to you, and it is also slower than it looks — a mile each way with a can is 40 minutes on foot. Fuel delivery reaches most metro locations in 10–20 minutes.
Your provider brings enough fuel to get you to the nearest station — typically one to two gallons — and puts it in on the spot. Tell dispatch whether the vehicle takes gasoline or diesel; putting the wrong one in is a repair bill, not a roadside call.
If you have already tried to restart repeatedly on an empty tank, mention it. On some vehicles a completely dry fuel system needs a little cranking to prime, and on diesels it can need more than that.
An EV at zero charge cannot be topped off at the curb the way a gas tank can. The right service is a tow to the nearest working charger — $75 for the first 4 miles plus $19 per additional mile. Say it is an EV when you book so a flatbed or the correct equipment is sent.
$49 flat for fuel delivery including the fuel brought to you, at any hour, with no surge. Payment is held until the job is complete and you confirm it.

Yes. Specify diesel when you book so the correct fuel is brought.
An EV needs a tow to a charger rather than fuel delivery. Towing starts at $75 for the first 4 miles, then $19 per additional mile.
