The storage-yard trap on the Jersey City tunnel approach, and the phone call that avoids it

After a crash or breakdown near the Holland Tunnel, a car hauled to a storage yard runs up daily rent and a release fee before it ever reaches a shop; calling your own truck first sends it straight to your garage for the $149 booking fee, or $129 if you book online, plus miles, with nothing charged by the night.

01

Route 139 upper and lower levels

Stop-and-go tunnel traffic, overheating engines and small rear-end collisions. Room to stop is scarce, so the dispatcher tells you where to get the car out of the lane.

Call us before the scene clears and name your shop. That is the step that keeps the car out of a yard.

02

12th Street, 14th Street and Jersey Avenue

The feeder streets from Downtown to the tunnel mouth, packed at rush hour. Stalls and flats here get moved first and priced second.

Inside the tunnel tube the tunnel's own crews clear stalled cars. Once your car is out on a street, we pick it up at the flat rate.

03

Tonnelle Avenue and Routes 1 & 9 Truck

Truck traffic, warehouses and auto businesses toward North Bergen and the Hackensack crossing. Box trucks and vans that quit mid-route are routine.

Medium and heavy-duty trucks come from Linden. A fleet invoice beats paying each call separately.

04

The Pulaski Skyway's Jersey City end and Exit 14C

The Skyway has almost no shoulder. Coast to the Jersey City end and a side street if the car still moves; the tow costs the same from there.

Turnpike and Parkway shoulders are served by the Authority's authorized garages. Book with us and we take the car from the exit or the garage's lot.

FAQ

Tunnel approach: common questions

Short answers to what people ask about this page; the dispatcher can answer the rest.

Why is a storage yard so expensive after a tunnel-area crash?

Yards charge by the day plus a release fee, and you still need a second tow to a real shop. Sending the car straight to your garage skips all of it.

Do you tow inside the Holland Tunnel?

No. The tunnel's own crews clear the tube. Once the car is out on a Jersey City street, we take it at the flat rate.

Can you pick up a box truck on Tonnelle Avenue?

Yes. Medium and heavy-duty trucks come from the same yard. Tell dispatch the vehicle and weight.

I stalled on the Pulaski Skyway. What should I do?

If the car moves, coast to the Jersey City end and a side street. If not, hazards on, get out on the side away from traffic, and call.

Anything else? Ask on the call.
