Which areas around Pittsburgh does the roadside line cover?

The line covers the city of Pittsburgh and nearby Allegheny County towns: Downtown and the Strip, the South Side and Mount Washington, Oakland and the East End, the North Side, the South Hills suburbs, and the eastern and western parkway corridors.

If you're just outside these areas, call anyway and say where you are. The operator will say whether a truck can reach you.

For what each service involves, see flat tire repair, battery replacement, fuel delivery and towing.

Roadside assistance in Downtown and the Strip District

Downtown sits between the Allegheny and the Monongahela with the Fort Pitt, Fort Duquesne and Liberty bridges at its edges. Most calls here are dead batteries in parking garages, where the clearance height decides which truck can come, and flat tires on the bridge approaches. The Strip District's loading zones and Smallman Street are tight for a tow truck, so give a cross street.

Call (412) 789-1262

Roadside assistance in South Side and Mount Washington

The South Side flats run along East Carson Street, with the Birmingham and Liberty bridges behind them and the slopes climbing toward Mount Washington. Steep streets and tight parking mean cars slide into curbs in winter and batteries die on cars parked for days. Give the street and which way the car faces on the hill.
