Towing on Old East Dallas Streets

Old East Dallas is one of the oldest residential parts of the city. East Dallas was its own town until Dallas annexed it in 1890. Many of its homes date to the early 1900s, and many streets are narrow with large trees, rear alleys and small detached garages.

Those features make towing harder. A big truck can scrape low limbs or block a street. We plan our approach before we arrive, and we often use a wheel-lift truck or a winch to bring a car from a tight driveway to the curb.

Common Calls in Old East Dallas

Tips for Old East Dallas Drivers

Tell dispatch if your car is in an alley, a rear garage or a driveway with a gate. Let us know about low trees or overhead lines. If your car is a classic, see our classic car towing page for how we load older cars.

A Closer Look at Old East Dallas

Old East Dallas includes several historic districts and neighborhoods, such as Peak's Suburban Addition, Swiss Avenue, Munger Place and Junius Heights. Main roads include Gaston Avenue, Live Oak Street, Ross Avenue, Peak Street and Haskell Avenue. Many blocks mix older single-family homes with small apartment buildings and newer townhomes.

Weather and Old Streets

Old East Dallas has many large trees. After storms, fallen limbs can block streets and damage parked cars. Older streets also crack in the summer heat and after freezes, which leads to flats and bent rims. If a tree limb fell on your car, call us after the area is safe and we can tow it to a body shop.
