Locked out with keys inside — or lost entirely — is stressful enough without wondering what it will cost. A lockout with I Need Roadside is $49 flat.
The service fee covers a provider coming to your location and using non-destructive entry tools to unlock your vehicle so you can get your keys or belongings.
If your keys are lost rather than locked inside, or you need a replacement key or fob cut and programmed, that's a separate locksmith-style job beyond a standard lockout and would be quoted based on what your vehicle needs.
Locksmiths and tow companies price lockouts differently depending on the vehicle, the lock type, and the time of day, and some add night or weekend surcharges. I Need Roadside's $49 rate doesn't change based on time or day.
