Flatbed Towing in Broadway-Fillmore: What the Call Involves
A flatbed carries the car with all four wheels off the road, which is the only safe way to move all-wheel drive, anything low, a car with a seized wheel, a car with no key, or a car that has already been in a crash. For those, nothing else will do. For most front-wheel-drive cars, a wheel-lift does the same job, and on a tight street it is often the only truck that fits. With us the two cost exactly the same, so the only question is what your car can tolerate, and we will tell you straight. Flatbed versus wheel-lift lays out the line between them.
Broadway-Fillmore is a lot of straight residential streets and a few long commercial runs, and the calls split the same way: driveway no-starts and lot lockouts on one side, cars stuck in the berm at the kerb after a plow pass on the other. The grid is forgiving for a flatbed on the main roads and tight on the side streets once winter parking sets in. The East Side runs from Main Street out to the Cheektowaga line, and it is the biggest part of the city by area.
All-wheel drive, low cars, seized wheels, no key, crash damage: flatbed towing in Broadway-Fillmore is the deck job, $160 before mileage and $7 a loaded mile. On Fillmore Avenue it needs a straight run behind the car to drop the deck; on a tight side street the wheel-lift may be the truck that fits.

Where We Actually End Up on a Broadway-Fillmore, Buffalo Call at Two in the Morning
Most flatbed towing calls out of Broadway-Fillmore, Buffalo put us on Broadway, Fillmore Avenue — the roads where cars get left when they stop being drivable, and where a truck can actually get positioned without blocking a lane.
The other half is property work around the Broadway Market, Saint Adalbert Basilica, Buffalo Central Terminal, Corpus Christi Church.

Getting a Truck to You in Broadway-Fillmore
The East Side's main roads are wide and straight and a flatbed drops its deck without trouble. The residential blocks off them park both sides and in winter the berm at the kerb turns them into wheel-lift streets. Driveways are mostly short, so a car at the back of one with another car behind it needs the front car moved first. Lots along the commercial runs are open.
What to tell us when you call from Broadway-Fillmore: the nearest cross street or a pin, for example where you are on Broadway. 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.
Winter in Broadway-Fillmore and Flatbed Towing
On the East Side the winter call is the car backed into the berm the plow left across the driveway, or buried at the far end of an unplowed side street.
