Tow truck in Woodbridge proper: Main Street, the station lot, and the truck that fits an angled space

A car parked nose-in at an angle cannot be winched straight up a deck without swinging into the space beside it. The wheel-lift slides under the rear or the front, lifts, and walks the car backward into the lane. If the car is front-wheel drive and going a short distance, that truck takes it the rest of the way.

If it is all-wheel drive or electric, the rollback is parked on a side street and the transfer takes two minutes.

Coast Line commuters come back to a car that sat all day, and most of those calls are a battery. A jump is one flat price and no truck bed is needed.

When the car has to move, the rows are tight and the rollback loads from the end of the aisle. Say which lot and which row, and whether you are at the car or still on the platform.

The three roads that carry downtown's traffic out toward the Parkway, Rahway and Perth Amboy. Curbside parking, left-turn lanes and the school zone on Amboy Avenue decide where the truck can stop. Give the cross street and the side; the driver comes in from Route 35 or from Rahway Avenue depending on which is nearer the truck.

Route 35 is two lanes each way with parking through the center and a rail bridge at the south end. A stalled car here blocks a lane and the wheel-lift is the fast answer.

Cars in the Community Center lot and the municipal lots by Town Hall are open-air, so either truck loads on the spot.
