About Tonawanda, and What a Call From Here Looks Like

Tonawanda is a town in Erie County with 72,636 residents at the 2020 census, the northern inner ring suburb of Buffalo, with the city forming part of its southern border. The ZIP codes are 14150, 14207, 14217, 14223. It borders Buffalo, Amherst, North Tonawanda, the City of Tonawanda and Grand Island.

Tonawanda is the inner ring, close enough to Buffalo that the mileage on a tow barely registers and far enough that the roads are wider and the lots are bigger. Lot lockouts, driveway no-starts, and shoulder winch-outs on the main roads make up most of what we see here. A flatbed fits almost everywhere; the question is usually the car, not the street.

The Streets and Places Where Tonawanda Cars Get Left

The calls come off Military Road, River Road, Sheridan Drive, Delaware Avenue and Niagara Falls Boulevard and the lots along them. A car at the far end of a big lot and a car in a driveway are both easy; a car on a shoulder in a band is the one to describe carefully.

Property work here comes from Ellicott Creek Park, Brighton Park, Sheridan Park, Lincoln Park, the Brighton, Kenilworth, Parkview and Sheridan Parkside neighborhoods, Walter M. Kenney Field, the Town of Tonawanda Historical Society museum on Knoche Road and the Town of Tonawanda Veterans Memorial: the battery that died while someone was inside, the lockout at the far end of a lot, the car that will not start in a space it cannot be pushed out of. Each is a flat-price call where the car stays where it is.

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.

School lots fill and empty on a schedule, and the car that will not start at pickup time is a call we know: Kenmore West Senior High School, Kenmore East High School, St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute and Mount Saint Mary Academy all have the lot, the battery and the parent on a deadline. That is a jump start at $129 where the car sits, or a battery fitted on the spot if the jump last week did not hold.

Getting a Truck to You in Tonawanda

In the inner ring the roads are wide, the driveways are long and the lots are big, so a flatbed fits almost everywhere and the question is usually the car rather than the street. The exceptions are apartment lots packed to the line and the older village streets, where a wheel-lift is the easier truck. A car on a shoulder in a band is loaded from the road once it is pulled back onto it.

What to tell us when you call from Tonawanda: the nearest cross street or a pin, for example where you are on Military Road, and the ZIP if it helps, 14150. 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 Tonawanda, and What They Usually Need

The calls from here are the commuter's car dead in a big lot at six in the evening, the lockout in a grocery lot, the crossover that slid off a wide road into the shoulder snow, and the car that will not start in a driveway after a night in the cold. Big lots and wide roads make most of them straightforward.

Stuck in Tonawanda Right Now? Four Things, in Order

1. Get safe. Out of the travel lane if the car will push, hazards on. In the car if it is cold and the spot is safe; out and away from it if it is not.
2. Work out which call it is. One click and dim lights is a jump start. Keys visible inside is a lockout. A flat with a spare is a tire change. Buried or off the shoulder is a winch-out. Anything that has to move is a tow.
3. Call or text (716) 277-7012 with the cross street or a pin, what the car is, what it is doing, and where it is going. You hear the number before the truck is sent.
4. Check the number. A tow is $160 plus $7 a loaded mile. A roadside call is the flat price above. If you hear anything else, ask why.
