About BJ Towing

The Plainfield Tow Company That Actually Picks Up

BJ Towing is a locally owned towing and roadside assistance company based in Plainfield, Illinois. We run flatbed trucks across Will County and the southwest suburbs, from Naperville and Bolingbrook down to Joliet, Shorewood and New Lenox.
We built the company around the two things a stranded driver cares about: how fast someone answers and how carefully their car gets moved. So our dispatch line is staffed around the clock, our quotes come before the hook-up, and every tow rides on a flatbed, which is why classic and luxury owners in the area trust us with cars that never see a wheel-lift.

24/7 Emergency Towing

Breakdown, no-start or collision at any hour: a dispatcher answers, you hear one flat price, and a flatbed heads your way.

Flatbed Towing

Every tow rides fully on the deck. The right way to move AWD, electric, lowered, collector and crash-damaged vehicles.

Roadside Assistance

Dead battery, flat tire, lockout or empty tank: a technician comes to you and fixes it on the spot, 24/7.

Accident Towing

After a crash, the damage decides the method: flatbed, recovery first if it's off the road, and an itemized receipt for your claim.

Classic Car Towing

Flatbed only, wheel straps and a slow, shallow load: for cars whose drivetrain, tires and trim shouldn't roll behind a truck.

EV & Tesla Towing

Electric cars ride only on the deck, all four wheels off the road, so the motors and the battery pack are never at risk on the way.

Motorcycle Towing

Breakdown, flat or a spill you'd rather not ride home from: the bike rides upright on the deck, strapped for its make and condition.

Medium-Duty Towing

Box trucks, cargo vans, step vans and shuttle buses ride on a long flatbed rated for the weight, strapped for their load and condition.

Lockout Service

Keys locked inside, in the trunk or in a running car: we open most vehicles without a scratch, any hour.

Jump Starts

Dead battery at home, at work or at the store: we boost it, watch how it recovers and tell you if the battery is done.

Commercial & Semi Jump Starts

Diesels, dual-battery fleet units, box trucks and semis need far more cranking power than a car booster. We bring it, and tow if the jump fails.

Flat Tire Change

Good spare and a safe spot? We mount it where you stopped. If a swap won't work, the same truck carries the car to your tire shop.

Fuel Delivery

Ran dry on the way to the pump? We bring enough fuel to get you to the nearest station, any hour.

FAQ

Your Questions About Towing Answered

Straight answers to the questions our dispatchers hear most. Don't see yours? Call and ask; we're available 24/7.

Yes. BJ Towing's dispatch line is answered 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays. Night and holiday calls are handled by the same local crew, not an outsourced answering service.

It depends on where you are and what traffic is doing, so we give you an honest estimate on the call instead of a blanket promise. Our trucks are based in Plainfield, which keeps us close to Route 59, I-55, Route 126 and US-30, and we'll update you if anything changes while you wait.

Cars, SUVs, minivans, pickups, motorcycles and medium-duty work trucks and vans, plus lowered, all-wheel-drive, electric, classic and exotic vehicles that need a flatbed. If you drive something unusual or it's loaded or pulling a trailer, tell the dispatcher so the truck that arrives is rated for it.

You get one flat price on the phone before we dispatch, with no separate hookup fee or per-mile charge, and the number doesn't change at the drop-off. The quote depends on distance, vehicle type and the situation (a driveway pickup costs less than a winch-out from a ditch).

That's our specialty. Every tow rides on a flatbed, and we use soft straps, low-angle loading and extra care for low-clearance, classic and high-value vehicles.

Many calls end without a tow. Dead battery, locked keys inside, a flat tire or an empty tank are roadside assistance jobs we handle right where you are. If the car still can't move safely, we tow it; you'll never pay for both when one would do.

Need Help Right Now?

Don't wait on the side of the road. Call BJ Towing at (708) 400-3917: a dispatcher answers, you get a price, and a flatbed heads your way. Serving Plainfield, Naperville, Joliet, Bolingbrook and the surrounding suburbs 24/7.
