Towing on I-80.
East–west from New Lenox to Lansing, both directions, 24 hours a day.
In shortPrestige CK Towing covers I-80 from New Lenox east through the I-355, I-57 and I-294 junctions to Lansing, 24 hours a day from its Oak Lawn location. Tell dispatch the direction and the last exit, and a flatbed or service truck is quoted on the phone and rolling before you hang up.
On this road
What dispatch would tell you on the phone.Where we run
I-80 is the south edge of the service area. From Oak Lawn, the LaGrange Road, Harlem Avenue and Cicero Avenue exits and the I-57 junction are the quickest, and we run the corridor from New Lenox east to Lansing: Mokena, Tinley Park, Orland Park, Oak Forest, Country Club Hills, Hazel Crest, South Holland, Thornton, Lansing and the towns in between.
On the shoulder
I-80 carries heavy truck traffic day and night. Get fully onto the shoulder, hazards on, and stay belted in the car unless you can get behind the barrier. The driver stops behind you with lights on and cones out before anyone opens a door.
Trucks and trailers
Work vans, box trucks, shuttle buses and small RVs up to 26,000 lbs GVWR go on the medium-duty truck. Semis and tractor-trailers are heavy duty; call anyway and we point you to a heavy wrecker we trust rather than leave you on the shoulder.
What it costs
A tow off I-80 inside the local ring is the flat rate: hook-up and the first 10 miles for one number, quoted on the phone. Tire change, jump start or fuel is the roadside service call. Beyond the ring it is per mile and told upfront, and Indiana is not served.
Tell dispatch
- 01Which interstate and which direction you are heading
- 02The last exit you passed, or the next one you can see
- 03Which shoulder you are on and whether the car is fully off the lane
- 04What the car is doing: flat, dead, overheating, crashed
- 05How many people are with you and whether anyone is hurt
Asked a lot
Anything else, call and ask.01How far east on I-80 do you go?
To Lansing and the state line. Indiana is not in the service area, so a drop in Hammond or Munster is not something we quote.
02How long until you reach me on I-80?
The stretch from LaGrange Road to the I-57 junction is close to our 25-minute average. Farther west toward New Lenox or east toward Lansing you get an honest ETA on the call.
03My camper broke down on I-80.
Class C motorhomes and small RVs up to 26,000 lbs GVWR ride on the medium-duty truck. Give dispatch the length and the GVWR from the door sticker.
04Can you tow me to a shop in Tinley Park or Orland Park?
Yes, both are in the service area and inside the flat local rate from most of I-80.
