24-Hour Towing in Round Lake Beach, IL

The shop keeps weekday hours. The tow truck runs all of them, seven days a week, because a car in a ditch on Route 12 at midnight in February cannot wait until Monday.

Lake County winters generate the calls

Black ice on the county roads around the Chain O'Lakes, a slide into a snowbank, a spin on Rollins Road, or a deer that came out of a treeline at dusk. Most of it happens after dark and away from anywhere with a streetlight.

When you call, say whether the vehicle rolls and steers, and whether it is off the pavement. A car sitting in a ditch or in soft ground needs different equipment than one on the shoulder, and knowing before we leave saves an hour of your night.

Do not drive it in

Bent suspension, a cracked mount, a leaking cooling system, or a deployed airbag are all reasons to stop. None of them are reliably obvious from the driver's seat, and limping a damaged vehicle home has turned plenty of repairable cars into total losses. If a wheel sits at an angle or fluid is on the ground, it rides on the truck.

Say where it goes

Whoever arrives first will ask, and with no answer your vehicle lands in whichever lot suits them, usually one billing storage by the day. You choose the destination. Call (847) 740-3234 and we will handle it.

Anywhere in the county

Grayslake, Fox Lake, Wauconda, Mundelein, Antioch, and everywhere between. Once it reaches our auto body shop we document the condition and the estimate starts.

Any hour: (847) 740-3234.
