Emergency Towing
When your car breaks down unexpectedly, we are here to help 24/7.

What Is Emergency Towing
Emergency towing is exactly what it sounds like: fast, reliable help when your vehicle breaks down or becomes undrivable without warning. This service is designed for situations where you cannot safely drive your car and need immediate assistance to move it off the road. Whether you are dealing with a dead battery, engine failure, flat tire, or an accident, emergency towing gets your vehicle to a safe location quickly. Professional emergency road service providers understand the urgency of these situations and prioritize rapid response times. In Edina and the surrounding areas, we provide 24/7 towing services so you are never left stranded, no matter the time of day or night.
Unlike scheduled towing for junk car removal or vehicle transport, emergency towing happens on short notice. You call us, we dispatch a truck immediately, and our driver arrives as quickly as possible to get you moving again. Our team is trained to handle all types of emergency situations, from cars blocking traffic on busy highways to vehicles stuck in parking lots after hours. We understand that breakdowns are stressful and inconvenient, so we prioritize speed without cutting corners on safety or professionalism.
When you contact EliteEdge Edina Towing for emergency help, you can expect clear communication, fair pricing, and a driver who treats your vehicle with care. We do not charge surprise fees or take advantage of your situation. Our goal is to get you out of a tough spot and back on track as soon as possible. Emergency towing is about more than just moving a car from point A to point B. It is about providing peace of mind when things go wrong.
When You Need Emergency Towing
Not every vehicle problem requires a tow truck, but many situations do. Knowing when to call for emergency towing can save you time, money, and stress. If your car will not start, your engine is overheating, or you are leaking fluids on the road, it is time to call us. Trying to drive a damaged or malfunctioning vehicle can make the problem worse and put you in danger. Emergency towing gets your car off the road before further damage occurs.
Accidents are another common reason people need emergency towing. Even minor fender benders can leave your car undrivable, and you should not attempt to move it yourself if the wheels, steering, or frame are damaged. Our team works with insurance companies regularly and can help coordinate the tow to your preferred repair shop. We also provide emergency towing for vehicles stuck in snow, mud, or ditches. Minnesota winters can be harsh, and it is easy to slide off the road in icy conditions. We have the equipment and experience to safely recover your vehicle and get it to a secure location.
Here are some common situations when you should call for emergency towing:
- Your car will not start and you are blocking traffic or parked in an unsafe location
- Your engine is making loud noises, smoking, or overheating
- You have a flat tire and no spare, or you cannot change it safely where you are
- Your vehicle was involved in an accident and is not safe to drive
- Your car is stuck off the road or in a ditch and cannot be driven out
- You ran out of gas on a highway or in a dangerous area
- Your brakes are failing or your steering feels unsafe
If you are unsure whether you need emergency towing or roadside assistance, call us and describe the situation. Our dispatch team can help you decide the best course of action. Sometimes a quick jumpstart or tire change is all you need, but if the problem is more serious, we will send a tow truck right away.
How Our Emergency Towing Works
When you call EliteEdge Edina Towing for emergency help, the process is simple and straightforward. First, you talk to our dispatch team and explain what is happening with your vehicle. We ask for your location, a description of the problem, and where you want your car towed. If you are not sure about the best repair shop or storage location, we can make recommendations based on your needs. We also give you an upfront price estimate so there are no surprises later.
Once we have your information, we dispatch the nearest available tow truck to your location. We use GPS tracking to find you quickly, even if you are not sure of your exact address. Our drivers carry cell phones and stay in contact with dispatch, so we can update you on arrival times and answer any questions. Most emergency calls are answered within 15 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic, weather, and your location. If you are in a dangerous spot on the highway, we prioritize your call and work with local authorities if needed.
When our driver arrives, they assess the situation and determine the best way to load your vehicle safely. We use modern equipment including flatbed trucks, wheel-lift systems, and winches to handle any type of car, truck, or SUV. Our drivers are trained to secure your vehicle properly so it does not shift or sustain damage during transport. Once your car is loaded, we take it to your chosen destination, whether that is a repair shop, your home, or a storage facility. We can also provide flatbed towing if your vehicle has all-wheel drive or low clearance.
After the tow is complete, we process your payment and provide you with a receipt. If your insurance is covering the tow, we can work directly with them to handle the paperwork. Our team is experienced with insurance claims and knows what documentation is required. We want to make the entire process as smooth as possible so you can focus on getting your vehicle repaired and getting back on the road.
