Towing near me in Bergen County, NJ: six areas, the roads between them, and how long a truck really takes
Looking for towing near you in Bergen County? This page lays the county out in six areas, gives the honest drive time to each from our Linden yard, and lists the three neighboring New Jersey counties on the same terms: Hudson, Passaic and Essex. One number, one dispatcher, and the truck that is actually closest.
Towing near me by area of Bergen County, south to north
Every area of Bergen County gets the same dispatcher and the same $149 booking fee; the drive time is what changes, from about half an hour in the Meadowlands towns to an hour or more at the New York line.
The Meadowlands and south Bergen: about 30 to 35 minutes
Lyndhurst, Rutherford, East Rutherford, Carlstadt, Moonachie and Wood-Ridge, reached by the Turnpike's Western Spur and Route 3. MetLife Stadium, American Dream and the southern edge of Teterboro Airport are all here.
Hackensack, Lodi and the county seat: about 40 minutes
The courthouse on Main Street, Hackensack University Medical Center, Lodi, Maywood, Little Ferry and Hasbrouck Heights. Route 17, Route 46 and I-80 all cross this piece of the county.
Paramus and the Route 4 and 17 corridor: 40 to 45 minutes
Westfield Garden State Plaza, Paramus Park and Bergen Town Center, all within a few miles of the Route 4 and Route 17 interchange. Parkway Exits 161 and 163 are close by.
Fort Lee, Englewood and Teaneck: 40 to 45 minutes, more in bridge traffic
The George Washington Bridge approach, I-95, Route 4, Route 9W and the Palisades Parkway, plus Englewood Hospital and Holy Name Medical Center. Pickup happens once a car is off Port Authority ground.
Fair Lawn, Garfield, Elmwood Park and Saddle Brook: 40 to 45 minutes
The western edge along the Passaic River, with Route 208, I-80, the Parkway at Exits 159 and 160 and the Radburn and Broadway rail stations in Fair Lawn.
The north, Ridgewood to Mahwah: an hour or more
Ridgewood, Ramsey, Mahwah, Oakland, Franklin Lakes, Westwood and the Pascack Valley, along Route 17, Route 208 and I-287. Best booked ahead; emergency windows here are long, and we say so.
The town and a cross street are all the dispatcher needs to find the nearest truck.

- Route 17 south end, Rutherford and Hasbrouck Heights
- I-80 and Route 46 through Lodi and Hackensack
- Route 4 and Route 17 interchange, Paramus

If the car still rolls, ease off Route 17 or Route 4 into a store lot or a side street, then dial. If it is dead in the lane, put the flashers on, walk to a safe spot, and give the town, road, direction and the closest store, exit or cross street.

Call from the roadsideThe New Jersey counties bordering Bergen County share the same dispatch
On the New Jersey side, Bergen County touches Hudson, Passaic and Essex counties; a car stranded just over any of those lines is handled by the same desk on (908) 666-3168, at the same $149 booking fee.
Hudson County
South of the Meadowlands into Secaucus, North Bergen, Kearny and Jersey City. Our trucks work here all day, which is why south Bergen gets the shortest windows.
Passaic County
West across the Passaic River from Garfield, Elmwood Park and Fair Lawn into Clifton, Passaic and Paterson, and north of Oakland into Wayne and the lake towns.
Essex County
Southwest across the Passaic River from Lyndhurst and North Arlington into Nutley, Belleville and Newark, a short hop over the river bridges.
A tow from Bergen County into a neighboring county, or back again, is an ordinary local job: the $149 booking fee plus mileage, one quote. Rockland and Orange counties across the New York line, Manhattan across the bridge, or anywhere farther counts as long distance towing, priced the same way with tolls included.
Service area: common questions
Short answers to what people ask about this page; the dispatcher can answer the rest.
Is there a tow truck near me in Bergen County right now?
In the southern towns, often yes, because our trucks work Hudson County and the Meadowlands. Farther north the nearest truck may be 40 minutes to an hour away, and the dispatcher tells you the real number.
Which part of Bergen County do you reach fastest?
The Meadowlands towns: Lyndhurst, Rutherford, East Rutherford, Carlstadt and Moonachie, about 30 to 35 minutes from Linden by the Turnpike.
Do you go all the way to Mahwah and Montvale?
Yes. It is an hour or more from our yard, so we recommend booking ahead for anything that is not urgent. Emergency calls are taken with an honest window.
Do you tow across county lines?
Yes. Hudson, Passaic and Essex counties get the same dispatcher and the same $149 booking fee.
Anything else? Ask on the call.
