Flatbed tow for Teslas, Subarus, AWDs, lowered cars, luxury, exotics, motorcycles, and anything banged up. Hydraulic deck, soft wheel straps, no chains on paint.
Standard wheel-lift tow for front-wheel or rear-wheel drive cars — fast, maneuverable, cheaper than flatbed for vehicles that don't need one. We don't upsell flatbed if wheel-lift is safe.
Jump start, flat tire change, lockout, fuel delivery — solve the problem on scene without hooking the car. ~45 min typical arrival across Queens and Nassau, 24 hours.
Post-accident vehicle recovery with flatbed and insurance-grade scene documentation — timestamped photos, signed release, carrier billing. You pick the body shop, we deliver.
Dead battery jump start with commercial-grade jump packs. ECU-safe for modern vehicles — no risk to your electronics. If the battery is finished we tow to your shop instead.
Car lockout help with long-reach tools that don't damage window seals or paint. Keys on the seat, fob battery dead mid-shift, locked out at the LIRR station — we unlock it.

Car trouble in Hollis? We're nine minutes from your driveway. 25,000 people in ZIP 11423. Hillside Avenue along the north side, Jamaica Avenue along the south, Hollis Avenue running through the residential core, Francis Lewis Boulevard crossing the grid. Dense single- and two-family homes, heavy curbside parking, steady commercial-strip activity on Hillside. Dead battery, flat tire, locked out, flatbed to your shop — call us.
From our Kew Gardens yard, default is Hillside Avenue east through Jamaica and into Hollis. For calls along the southern Jamaica Avenue side, we come in directly via Jamaica Avenue east. For calls on Francis Lewis Boulevard or the eastern residential blocks, we approach via Hillside east and drop south on Francis Lewis.
We stay off state-contracted facilities — Grand Central Parkway mainline, Cross Island Parkway mainline, any authorized-only zone. Service roads and surface streets are our work. State operators handle mainline incidents; we pick up from the surface drop.
Hillside Avenue through Hollis is a busy commercial arterial with retail, auto-related businesses, restaurants, and community institutions. Tow calls concentrate at the Hillside / Francis Lewis Boulevard intersection — one of the heavier turning- movement points on the corridor — and at multiple cross-street corners along the stretch. Minor collisions from rush-hour conflicts and double-parked delivery volume produce a steady accident recovery dispatch pattern.
For commercial-strip roadside assistance — stalls, flats, jump starts, fuel-outs — the dispatcher asks for the nearest numbered cross street so the truck arrives right the first time. Hillside is long enough that "on Hillside" is not a precise address.
Hollis's interior is dense two-family and single-family housing, with heavy curbside parking because driveways are often small and households often have multiple vehicles. That parking density shapes the residential tow pattern: vehicles that have been parked on the street for days sometimes return dead when the owner finally needs them, jump starts are a major share of our weekly Hollis work, and flats from curb strikes on the residential streets are a second steady pattern.
Vehicle mix runs working-family sedans, older SUVs, commercial-fleet and livery vehicles parked at home between shifts, and a steadily growing share of newer vehicles in the more affluent pockets. The tow equipment mix reflects it — wheel-lift for standard non- AWD tows, flatbed when the situation genuinely requires it.
Jamaica Avenue along the southern edge of Hollis runs under the elevated J/Z train structure. The stretch carries commercial activity plus the double-parking and delivery-vehicle rhythm common to under-el corridors. Tow operations here have the same staging considerations as other under-el work — overhead clearance, scene- photography angle limitations, tight curb access when buses are active.
Listen. We are saying this plainly because it saves lives. If you have had too much to drink in Hollis — dinner on Hillside, a party at a friend's house, a long night that started somewhere else and ended on Jamaica Avenue — don't drive. Not one block. Not "just to the house." Not "I feel fine." It is not worth a DUI. It is not worth wrecking the car. It is not worth hurting somebody on residential streets where kids cross to the playground.
Call us. We tow your car home, to a friend's place, to a safer parking spot, to a shop you deal with tomorrow. Nine minutes from our yard — one of the closest-response neighborhoods in Queens for us. The tow fare is a lot cheaper than a DUI lawyer, a lot cheaper than a totaled car, a lot cheaper than paying forever for a decision made when you were not thinking clearly.
The ride is chill. No lectures. Music on in the truck — put on whatever you want. You can smoke in the cab if that takes the edge off. The driver is not there to judge you. You picked up the phone instead of turning the key. That is the only thing that matters right now.
This also applies if you are a friend or family member trying to keep someone from driving drunk. Call us for the tow, get them a rideshare, and everyone wakes up safe tomorrow. JG Towing has you covered. Don't ruin your life. Let us tow you.
Our consent-only rule applies in Hollis. Written authorization signed on scene before any tow. No blocked- driveway pickups, no non-consent private- property dispatch, no predatory-lot contract work. NYPD 103rd Precinct covers the neighborhood for parking complaints.
The Hollis mix breaks into three recurring categories. Hillside Avenue commercial-strip calls. Residential driveway work across the two-family and single-family grid. Jamaica Avenue under-the-el dispatches. On-scene fixes when we can, flatbed or wheel-lift when we can't.
Call (347) 539-9726 and give the dispatcher the pickup address and nearest cross street. If you are on Hillside or Francis Lewis Boulevard, specify the cross street. For the vehicle, year / make / model, AWD or EV. For destination, name the shop. The fare comes back before the truck rolls.
Same dispatcher, same trucks — pick your actual location.
Yes. From Lefferts Blvd to Metropolitan Ave to every residential side street, we dispatch across all of Hollis. Our Kew Gardens yard is inside or adjacent to the neighborhood, so response is as close as it gets.
Usually 5–12 minutes once the truck rolls, depending on time of day and which truck we send. We quote a live estimate when you call rather than posting a blanket guarantee we can't always keep.
Flatbed for AWDs, EVs, lowered cars, and accident recovery. Wheel-lift for short FWD/RWD local tows. Jump starts, lockouts, and flat tire changes at the LIRR station lot and along Lefferts Blvd.
No — NYC expressways and parkways are handled by state-contracted operators, not us. We work surface streets. If your breakdown is on the Van Wyck approach, NYPD or the state will handle scene recovery; we pick up at a surface drop-off if your insurance books a second tow.
Consent-only service from our Kew Gardens yard. 24/7, quoted before the truck rolls.
