Towing in Downtown Dallas
Downtown Dallas means one-way streets, busy highways and garages with low ceilings. We bring the right gear to tow you out of all three.

Towing Where Downtown Rules Apply
Downtown calls come with garage clearance bars, bus lanes, rail tracks and one-way streets. Our drivers plan the pickup around all of them. As a Dallas towing company with our own yard, we also handle Dallas accident towing across the city.
Garage Clearance Gear
Most downtown garages are too low for a flatbed. We move the car to the street first.
One-Way Street Plans
Tell us your direction on Elm, Main, Commerce or Pacific so we pull up on the right side.
Hotel and Office Calls
Valet teams and building managers call us to move cars that will not start in their garages.
Close to the Core
Our yard sits a short drive east of downtown, off I-30 and I-345.
Downtown Dallas Towing From a Nearby Yard
Our yard is just east of downtown, close to I-30 and I-345. That puts Downtown Dallas a short drive away for our trucks. Downtown calls are different from most. Many of them start in a parking garage, on a one-way street or on a highway ramp with no shoulder.

Roadside Assistance in Downtown Dallas
Office workers and hotel guests often need a quick fix in a garage, not a tow. See all of our roadside assistance services.
Downtown Highway Breakdowns and Wrecks
The I-30 Canyon on the south side of downtown and the Mixmaster on the west side have short ramps and almost no shoulder. If you stall there, stay buckled in with hazard lights on and call 911 if you are in a live lane. Once police clear the scene, our accident towing crew loads your car.
Downtown also has many visitors in town for work or the convention center. If your car cannot make the drive home, our long distance towing can take it there on a flatbed.
Towing Tips for Downtown Dallas Drivers
Garages, One-Way Streets and Highways
Most downtown garages have clearance bars around 7 feet or less. We use our parking garage towing gear to move cars to the street, then load them on a flatbed. Downtown streets like Elm, Main, Commerce and Pacific run one way, so tell us the direction you face and the nearest cross street. If you break down on I-30, I-35E or I-345 near downtown, stay in your car with your belt on and your hazard lights flashing until we arrive.
Downtown Landmarks and Districts
Downtown Dallas includes the Main Street District, the Arts District, the West End, the Farmers Market area and the Reunion area near Reunion Tower. Klyde Warren Park caps Woodall Rodgers Freeway on the north side. DART light rail runs through the center of downtown along Pacific Avenue and Bryan Street, and most rail lines meet here.
Downtown Driving Challenges
- One-way streets and turn limits make it hard to circle back.
- Many streets have bus and rail lanes where we cannot stop.
- Highway ramps on I-30, I-35E and I-345 have short merges.
- Event days at the convention center and arena close streets.
When you call, tell us if you are in a garage, on a street, or on a highway, plus the nearest cross street or exit.
