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.

Need a tow in Kew Gardens Hills? We're six minutes from your block. 25,000 people in ZIP 11367. Main Street through the middle, Union Turnpike on the south, Vleigh Place, Jewel Avenue. Queens College at the northern edge. Dense garden-apartment and co-op grid, heavy curbside parking, a strong Jewish community that shapes the Sabbath-observing parking rhythm. Dead battery, flat, locked out, flatbed to your shop — call us.
From our Kew Gardens yard, default is Union Turnpike east directly into Kew Gardens Hills. For calls on Main Street we come up via 77th Road or directly off Union. For calls near Queens College or the northern blocks, we route via Jewel Avenue or continue north on Main Street.
We stay off state-contracted facilities. Grand Central Parkway and Long Island Expressway mainlines are authorized-only. Surface streets are our daily work.
Main Street through Kew Gardens Hills carries dense commercial-strip activity — kosher restaurants, cafes, grocery stores (Supersol, Seasons), Judaica stores, bakeries, service businesses. The neighborhood has one of the largest Orthodox Jewish communities in Queens, which shapes a specific parking and tow call pattern.
Sabbath and major Jewish holidays produce a distinctive tow call rhythm. Vehicles that observe Shabbat sit 25 hours or more without moving, and Sunday-morning dead- battery dispatch rates reflect it — we see the weekly spike. The pattern repeats on Passover and major holidays. We handle these calls with the standard consent-only discipline; the community's observance of the Sabbath means calls on Saturdays themselves are rare from this demographic — we see the buildup on Saturday nights and Sunday mornings instead.
Queens College sits at 65-30 Kissena Boulevard on the northern edge of Kew Gardens Hills. Campus-parking tow calls come through regularly — student vehicles with dead batteries in commuter lots, flats from lot debris, occasional lockouts. We coordinate with campus security on active class-day dispatches and handle event-day calls around athletic events and academic-calendar peaks (finals week, graduation).
Campus vehicle mix leans younger driver and commuter — older passenger cars are the majority. The tow mix tilts wheel-lift for the standard cases; faculty and visitor lots have a meaningful AWD / EV presence that calls for flatbed.
The residential grid is dense — garden- apartment complexes, co-op buildings, and row-house stretches. Curbside parking is heavy because driveways are small or non-existent on many buildings. Tight- driveway flatbed access is a recurring operational consideration: we often stage the truck at a cross street and use wheel-lift with dollies to move a vehicle out rather than attempting to back a flatbed into a narrow residential corridor.
The driveway call pattern runs the standard mix — jump starts on vehicles that sat, flats from street debris, older vehicles moving to shops after mechanical failures. The density plus Sabbath- observing community produces the weekly Sunday-morning dispatch spike I mentioned above.
Listen. We are saying this plainly because it saves lives. If you have had too much to drink in Kew Gardens Hills, don't drive. Not one block. Not across Union Turnpike. Not to a parking spot around the corner. It is not worth a DUI. It is not worth wrecking the car. It is not worth hurting somebody walking home on Main Street.
Call us. We are six minutes away — the shortest-reach response in our entire coverage after Kew Gardens itself. We tow your car home, to a friend's, to a parking spot where it will be safe overnight, to a shop tomorrow. The tow fare is a fraction of a DUI lawyer, a fraction of a totaled car, a fraction of what paying forever costs.
The ride is chill. No lectures. Music on in the truck — put on whatever you want. You can smoke in the cab if that helps. The driver is not there to judge you. You picked up the phone. That is what matters right now.
Same applies if you are a friend trying to keep someone from driving drunk. Call us for the tow, get them a rideshare. Six minutes away. Cheaper than bail. Cheaper than a funeral. JG Towing has you covered. Don't ruin your life. Let us tow you.
Our consent-only rule applies. Written authorization on scene before any tow. NYPD 107th Precinct covers the neighborhood for parking complaints.
The Kew Gardens Hills mix breaks into four recurring categories. Residential driveway and curbside tow work is the largest — with the distinctive Sunday- morning Sabbath-observing spike. Main Street commercial-strip calls are the second. Queens College campus dispatches are the third. Union Turnpike corridor work is the fourth. On-scene 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 at Queens College, name the lot. For the vehicle, year / make / model, AWD or EV. For destination, name the shop. 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 Kew Gardens Hills. 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.
