Tell the dispatcher where you are and what happened. A cross street or a highway exit is enough — you do not need a perfect address.

We dispatch the nearest truck

What we handle
24 Hour Roadside Assistance Services in NYC and Nassau County
Seven things go wrong more than everything else combined: flat tires, lockouts, dead batteries, empty tanks, and the heavy duty versions of the same problems. These are the seven services we run, all night as readily as at noon, anywhere in the five boroughs or Nassau.
Tire Change Service
Flat tire? We mount your spare or get you rolling on the shoulder, curbside, or in a garage.

Lockout Service
Keys locked inside? Non-destructive entry for cars, SUVs, and vans, day or night.
See how it works →
Jump Start Service
Dead battery? A portable booster pack gets your engine turning over without another car.

Emergency Jump Start Service
Stuck somewhere unsafe? Priority battery response for shoulders, tunnel approaches, and blocked lanes.
See how it works → Heavy Duty / Truck Jump Start
24-volt boosters for box trucks, tractors, buses, and commercial fleets.
See how it works → Heavy Duty / Truck Lockout
Locked out of a box truck, sleeper cab, or work van? We open commercial doors without damage.

Fuel Delivery
Out of gas or diesel? We bring enough fuel to get you to the nearest station.
See how it works →Most calls land in one of three buckets. A battery gives out — usually on the first genuinely cold night, or after a dome light burned all afternoon in a Kew Gardens driveway — and needs a jump start to turn over. A door locks itself with the keys on the seat, which is what our car lockout service exists for. Or a pothole opens a sidewall and the spare has to go on where the car sits, which is a roadside tire change.
The rest are the ones people are embarrassed to call about and shouldn't be. Running the tank to empty in stop-and-go traffic happens to careful drivers constantly, and emergency fuel delivery gets you to the next station without a walk down the shoulder with a gas can. And when the vehicle is a box truck or a work van rather than a sedan, heavy duty jump start service and commercial vehicle lockout help are separate calls with different equipment — not the same guy with a booster pack hoping for the best.

Near me
Searching for Emergency Roadside Assistance Near Me? Here's Who Answers
We are a mobile roadside assistance service near you — trucks working out of all five New York City boroughs and Nassau County, dispatched 24 hours a day from one number, 718-550-1460. That search gets typed into a phone hundreds of times a night in this city, almost always by someone standing next to a car that will not move, and the honest answer is that "near" is the only thing that matters. A company twenty minutes closer beats a company with a nicer website every single time.
That is the whole reason we run as a mobile service instead of a shop. There is no counter to walk up to and no yard to drive to, because a vehicle that will not start cannot be driven anywhere. The trucks live out in the boroughs, so when your call comes in the question is not "how long until someone leaves the garage" — it is "who is already closest to you right now."
It also means the honest answer changes with your corner of the map, and each one has its own page. Roadside assistance near you in Manhattan is mostly garage levels and hydrant zones, where access decides the wait more than distance does. Roadside assistance near you in Brooklyn is street parking, alternate side mornings and the neighborhoods either side of the BQE. And emergency roadside assistance in Queens covers the widest ground we work — driveways in Bayside, the airport lots, and the stretch of the Long Island Expressway that produces a call most nights of the week.
North and east it changes again. 24 hour roadside assistance in the Bronx is apartment lots and the commercial strips feeding the Cross Bronx. Roadside assistance near you on Staten Island is driveways and Hylan Boulevard, where a dead battery on a Sunday morning is the standard call. Roadside assistance near you in Nassau County runs on commuter lots and shopping centers — Hempstead Turnpike, Sunrise Highway, the station lots that fill at seven and empty at seven.
Six areas, one number, no membership in between. Call 718-550-1460, say where you are, and get a real answer for where you are actually standing.

Coverage
Mobile Roadside Assistance Near You in All 5 Boroughs and Nassau County
We cover roughly 250 zip codes: Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island and Nassau County — from the Rockaways to the north Bronx and east past the city line. Each area page lists every zip we cover there, the roads our drivers actually work, and the breakdowns that come up most often in that part of the map.
Each area page is written for the ground it covers, not copied from the one next to it. Manhattan roadside assistance deals with garages and hydrant zones; Staten Island roadside service with driveways and the expressway; Nassau County roadside assistance with commuter lots and the parkway towns. Brooklyn roadside assistance is alternate-side territory, Queens roadside assistance takes in the airports and the LIE, and Bronx roadside assistance covers everything feeding the Cross Bronx.
Call 718-550-1460 Anywhere on that map is in range — including the parkway shoulders and the garage levels.
What to expect
What Happens When You Call for 24 Hour Roadside Assistance at 3 A.M.
A person picks up, asks where you are, what the vehicle is and what it is doing, then sends the nearest truck and tells you what to do while you wait.
A person picks up. That sounds like a low bar until you have stood in a parking lot at 3 a.m. listening to a voicemail greeting. Our phone is staffed every hour of every day, holidays included, because that is when a large share of this work happens — batteries die on the coldest night of the year and doors lock at closing time, not at lunch.
The dispatcher will ask three things: where you are, what the vehicle is, and what it is doing. Where you are matters most. A street address is ideal, a cross street is fine, and on a highway the nearest exit number plus the direction you were heading is exactly what the driver needs. If you genuinely do not know, say so — "I came off the bridge and pulled into the first lot on the right" has found plenty of people.
Then you get told what to do while you wait, which is not filler. If you are on a shoulder, we would rather you be out of the vehicle and behind the guardrail than sitting in the driver's seat with traffic going by at fifty. If you are in a garage, we need to know the level and whether there is a clearance bar at the entrance, because that decides which vehicle we send. If it is cold, stay inside with the doors locked and we will find you.
When the truck arrives, most of these jobs are short. A jump is minutes. A tire swap is usually well under half an hour once the truck is on scene. A lockout depends entirely on the vehicle. Nobody is going to try to sell you a service you did not call about — you called because something specific broke, and that is the thing we came to fix. If the problem turns out to be bigger than a roadside repair, we will tell you that straight instead of charging you to find out slowly.
Talk to dispatch — 718-550-1460 Overnight, holidays, blizzards. The phone is staffed every hour of the year.
Commercial & heavy duty
Heavy Duty Roadside Assistance for Box Trucks, Work Vans and Fleet Vehicles
Yes, we run heavy duty roadside assistance across NYC and Nassau: 24-volt dual-battery jump starts and commercial vehicle lockouts for box trucks, sleeper cabs, sprinters and bucket trucks, on the same 24 hour dispatch as passenger work.
A dead box truck does not just inconvenience a driver — it stops a route, and in this city it usually stops it somewhere it is not allowed to sit. Heavy duty calls get treated as their own category for that reason. A 24-volt dual-battery system needs a booster built for it, and a commercial door with a reinforced lock needs tools and a technique that will not leave a mark on a vehicle somebody else owns.
Fleet dispatchers, owner-operators and contractors call the same number as everyone else: 718-550-1460. Tell us the class of vehicle up front — box truck, sleeper cab, sprinter, bucket truck — and whether it is blocking a lane or a loading dock, because that changes how the call gets prioritized. Details on both are on the truck jump start and truck lockout services.
Fleet dispatch — 718-550-1460 Give us the unit number, the class of vehicle and whether it is blocking a lane.
Questions
Emergency Roadside Assistance Questions NYC and Nassau Drivers Ask
How fast can someone get to me?
Typical arrival is 15–45 minutes, depending on traffic, weather and exactly where your vehicle stopped. A driveway in Bayside on a Sunday morning is a very different trip from the Cross Bronx at 5 p.m. on a Friday. When you call 718-550-1460, the dispatcher will tell you honestly what the nearest truck is looking at rather than quoting you a number that sounds good on a website.
How much does roadside assistance cost?
Roadside service starts at $125. What you actually pay depends on the job, the vehicle and where it stopped — a jump start in a driveway and a lockout on a garage ramp at 2 a.m. are not the same call. You get the number on the phone before a truck is sent, so nothing is a surprise when the driver arrives. There is no membership to buy and no call-out fee stacked on top.
Do I need a membership or an auto club card?
No. There is nothing to sign up for and no annual fee. You call, we come out, you pay for the one job you needed. That is the whole arrangement — which is why people who let a club membership lapse, or who are driving a rental, a work van or a car that is not in their own name, tend to call us instead.
What areas do you actually cover?
All five New York City boroughs and Nassau County: Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island and Nassau County — roughly 250 zip codes. Each of those has its own page above listing the zips, the roads and the calls that come up there. If you are somewhere on that map you are in range; call and give the dispatcher a cross street.
Can you unlock a truck or jump a commercial vehicle?
Yes. Heavy duty work is a separate skill set and we treat it that way — see truck lockout service and heavy duty jump starts. Box trucks, sleeper cabs, work vans and 24-volt dual-battery systems are all routine calls for us, and they run around the clock the same as passenger work.
Is anyone really answering at 3 a.m.?
Yes — the phone is staffed 24 hours a day, every day of the year, holidays included. Overnight is not an afterthought for us; it is a large share of the volume. Dead batteries show up on the coldest night of the year, and doors lock themselves at closing time, not at noon.
What do you need from me on the phone?
Your exact location — a street address, a cross street, or the highway plus the nearest exit — along with your vehicle make, model and color, and a one-line description of the problem. That is enough to route the right truck with the right equipment. There is a full checklist of what to have ready if you want to look it over first.
Still deciding who to call? How our dispatch works explains why a mobile service reaches you faster than a shop, and the contact page lists exactly what to have ready before you dial.
