Roadside Assistance

Sometimes a vehicle breakdown doesn't require a tow truck - just the right expertise and equipment to get you back on the road quickly. Des Moines Towing Service provides comprehensive roadside assistance services designed to handle common automotive problems that can strand motorists without requiring vehicle transportation to a repair facility.

Our roadside assistance team carries a full complement of tools and equipment to handle the most common roadside emergencies. From dead batteries and flat tires to lockouts and fuel delivery, we're equipped to resolve these issues on-site, saving you time and money while getting you back to your destination as quickly as possible.

Fact #1: Dead car batteries are responsible for nearly 40% of all roadside assistance calls, with extreme temperatures in both summer and winter being the primary factors that reduce battery performance and lifespan.

Our jump start service uses professional-grade equipment to safely boost your vehicle's electrical system without risking damage to sensitive electronic components. We can also test your battery's condition and charging system to help determine if you need immediate replacement or if your battery can be expected to provide reliable service in the near future.

Fact #2: Tire-related problems account for approximately 25% of roadside assistance calls, with many drivers lacking the proper tools or knowledge to safely change a tire on busy roadways or in adverse weather conditions.

For tire changes, our technicians have the experience and equipment to safely replace flat tires even in challenging conditions. We carry portable lighting, safety equipment, and proper jacking tools to ensure the job is done safely regardless of weather or traffic conditions. If your spare tire is also flat or damaged, we can provide temporary tire repair or towing to a tire shop.

Fact #3: Vehicle lockout situations have become increasingly complex with modern cars featuring advanced security systems, requiring specialized tools and techniques that have evolved far beyond traditional coat hanger methods.

Our lockout service utilizes modern tools and techniques designed specifically for today's vehicles with their sophisticated locking mechanisms and security systems. We can safely gain entry to most vehicles without causing damage to windows, weather seals, or electronic components, though some newer vehicles with advanced security may require towing to a dealership for specialized service.

Fuel delivery service is available for vehicles that have run out of gas or diesel fuel. We carry enough fuel to get you to the nearest gas station, and our technicians can also provide advice on fuel system issues if your vehicle appears to have consumed fuel unusually quickly or if you suspect a fuel system problem contributed to running out of gas.

When roadside assistance isn't enough to solve your problem, we're fully equipped to provideemergency towing services  to transport your vehicle to the repair facility of your choice. We also offerflatbed towing  for vehicles requiring extra protection during transport.
