About Grant-Amherst, and What a Call From Here Looks Like
Grant-Amherst is a Buffalo neighborhood on North Buffalo.
Grant-Amherst calls are a mix of the two things North Buffalo does: residential driveways and the commercial strips that run through it. A dead battery in a driveway at seven in the morning and a lockout outside a storefront at seven in the evening are the bread and butter, with winch-outs on the side streets once the bands come through. The streets are wider than the West Side and most of them take a flatbed without trouble, but the side streets off the strips still park both sides in winter.
The Streets and Places Where Grant-Amherst Cars Get Left
Most calls put the truck on Amherst Street and Grant Street, either on the strip itself or on the residential blocks just off it. Say which, because a car in a driveway and a car at a meter are loaded differently.
Every one of those streets has its own page under streets we tow on, with the areas it runs through and the calls we take most on it.
Getting a Truck to You in Grant-Amherst
North Buffalo's main roads take a flatbed without trouble, and the driveways are mostly long enough for a wheel-lift to back straight in. The side streets off the strips are the exception in winter, parked both sides with a berm at the kerb, and there the wheel-lift is the truck. Lots behind the storefronts are tight and a car at the back of one may need a neighbour moved.
What to tell us when you call from Grant-Amherst: the nearest cross street or a pin, for example where you are on Grant Street. What the car is, because an all-wheel-drive car needs a flatbed and a front-wheel-drive car does not. What it is doing: dead, flat, locked, stuck or wrecked. And where it needs to go, if it needs to go anywhere. From those four answers we tell you which call it is and quote it before the truck is sent.
Who Calls From Grant-Amherst, and What They Usually Need
The calls from here are the driveway no-start at seven in the morning, the lockout outside a storefront at seven in the evening, the car on a side street after a band that the plow has not reached, and the student's car with a flat and no spare. Half of them are a jump, a lockout or a tire change where the car sits.
