Pick the one that matches your situation. Each one opens the full service page.
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.
Pulled from actual jobs in this neighborhood.

Need a tow in Murray Hill, Queens? Thirteen minutes from our yard. 30,000 people across ZIPs 11355 and 11358. Not to be confused with Manhattan's Murray Hill — this one sits east of Flushing along Northern Boulevard, anchored by the Murray Hill LIRR station and the Bowne Park edge. Dead battery, flat tire, locked out, flatbed to your shop — call us.
From our Kew Gardens yard, default is Van Wyck service road north to Northern Boulevard, then east into Murray Hill. For calls near the LIRR station we approach from 150th Street. For calls on the Bowne Park side, we route via 149th Street.
Van Wyck Expressway mainline and Cross Island Parkway mainline are state-contracted. Not us. Service roads and surface streets are our daily work.
The Murray Hill LIRR station sits on the Port Washington Branch and serves commuter volume from the neighborhood plus surrounding Flushing and Broadway-Flushing blocks. The station produces the familiar commuter tow call pattern — concentrated dead-battery dispatches at weekday late-afternoon returns, flat tires from parking-lot debris, occasional lockouts from riders who sprinted for a train and left keys on the seat.
Station parking is a mix of surface lots, metered street spots, and permit-restricted residential side streets. For station-area calls the dispatcher asks which lot or side street for precise routing. Winter cold- morning returns produce the amplified dead- battery call rate we see at every commuter station.
Northern Boulevard runs east-west through the northern side of Murray Hill as a major arterial carrying commercial-strip retail, auto-related businesses, and through-traffic into Flushing and Bayside. Tow calls along Northern concentrate at the 150th Street intersection and further west at the Flushing commercial border.
Roosevelt Avenue runs along the southern side under the 7 train elevated structure (this is the eastern stretch, past the 7's Flushing-Main Street terminus). Accident recovery scenes in Murray Hill follow the usual insurance-documented workflow. Minor- collision volume tracks turning-movement density at the major intersections.
Murray Hill has one of Queens's most established Korean-American commercial districts, visible along Northern Boulevard and the residential blocks behind it. The commercial strip carries Korean restaurants, cafes, salons, grocery stores, and service businesses at dense activity throughout the day and evening.
The residential grid is a mix of detached single-family homes, semi-detached, and some garden-apartment complexes. Driveway roadside assistance calls are the dominant residential pattern — jump starts, flats from street debris, vehicles moving to shops after mechanical issues. Vehicle mix leans newer with a meaningful share of AWD SUVs, Tesla and other EV drivers, late-model sedans. Tow mix reflects it — flatbed and wheel-lift-with-dollies for AWD / EV, wheel-lift for standard cars.
Listen. We are saying this plainly because it saves lives. If you have had too much to drink in Murray Hill — dinner on Northern Boulevard, a long night at a spot near the LIRR, a Korean restaurant that turned into karaoke until three in the morning — don't drive. Not one block. Not to a nearby parking spot. It is not worth a DUI. It is not worth wrecking the car. It is not worth hurting somebody walking home after their own night.
Call us. We tow your car home, to a friend's, to a parking spot where it's safe overnight, to a shop tomorrow. Thirteen minutes from our yard. The tow fare is a fraction of a DUI lawyer, a fraction of a totaled car, a fraction of what living with hurting somebody 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 takes the edge off. The driver is not there to judge you. You picked up the phone. That is all that 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. 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 in Murray Hill. Written authorization signed on scene before any tow. No blocked-driveway pickups, no non- consent private-property dispatch, no predatory-lot contract work. NYPD 109th Precinct covers the neighborhood for parking complaints.
The Murray Hill mix breaks into three recurring categories. Northern Boulevard commercial-strip calls are the largest. LIRR station commuter work is the second. Residential driveway roadside calls across the interior grid are the third. On-scene when we can, tow to your shop when we can't.
Call (347) 539-9726 and give the dispatcher the pickup address and nearest cross street. If you are at the LIRR station, specify the lot. For the vehicle, year / make / model, AWD or EV. For destination, name the shop or dealer. 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 Murray Hill. 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.
