$75 for the first 4 miles, then $19 per additional mile
Need a tow truck in Brooklyn? I Need Roadside provides local towing service through the same roadside platform. Local towing starts at $75 for the first 4 miles plus $19 per additional mile — towing is priced separately from our $49 core roadside services. Service is available 24 hours a day across New York. Typical ETA: 10–20 minutes. You watch your provider come to you on a live map and pay in the app.
Some problems cannot be fixed at the curb. A vehicle that will not run, is unsafe to drive, or has damage beyond a roadside repair needs to be moved to a shop, a home, or a body shop.
Towing is priced by distance rather than as a flat service: $75 covers the first 4 miles and each additional mile is $19, so you can estimate the cost before you book. Tell dispatch where the vehicle needs to go and whether it rolls, steers, and brakes.
Your provider confirms the drop-off, loads the vehicle, and you follow the trip in the app. Payment is released after the vehicle is delivered.
When this isn't the right service: If a jump start, tire service, lockout, or fuel delivery would get the vehicle moving safely, that $49 service is cheaper than a tow.
Most Brooklyn requests come from the same handful of places: highway shoulders and on-ramps at rush hour, store and workplace lots, residential streets where a car sat overnight, and downtown parking garages. Providers cover Brooklyn itself plus the surrounding New York suburbs, and the rate does not change based on which of those you are stopped in.
