Why Tow-Tow in Ohio
Ohio sits at the crossroads of some of the busiest freight and travel routes in the country. The Ohio Turnpike crosses the entire northern edge of the state, while I-71, I-75 and I-77 run north to south between Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati and the Ohio River. That means a lot of drivers break down far from home, on roads they don't know well.
Tow-Tow gives those drivers, and local commuters, one simple way to ask for help. Open the app or start a request online, tell us what happened, and drop your location. Whether you need a flatbed tow after a breakdown, a jump-start on a below-freezing morning, or a tire change after a pothole hit, your request goes to available roadside providers in your area.
Services
Tell us what's wrong and we'll match your request to the right type of help.
Your car won't start, won't drive safely, or isn't worth risking on the highway. Request a tow and an available operator can move your vehicle to a repair shop, your home or another location you choose. Driving an AWD or low-clearance car? Note it in your request so the provider can plan the right tow.
Request a Tow →Ohio potholes are hard on tires, especially from late winter into spring. If you have a usable spare, a roadside technician can swap it on so you can keep moving. No spare? Request a tow to a tire shop instead.
Get Flat Tire Help →Cold Ohio mornings drain weak batteries fast. A provider can come to your driveway, office lot or roadside location and jump-start your vehicle, so you can get to work or to a shop for a battery test.
Get a Jump-Start →Keys locked in the car at a Columbus parking garage or a Turnpike service plaza? Request lockout help and a provider can work to get you back inside without damaging your doors or windows.
Get Lockout Help →Ran low between exits or underestimated a long rural stretch? Request fuel delivery and a provider can bring enough gas to get you to the nearest station.
Request Fuel Delivery →After a collision or a sudden mechanical failure, focus on staying safe. Once you're out of traffic, request a tow so your vehicle can be cleared from the scene and taken where it needs to go.

Ohio's roads change a lot from region to region and season to season. Here's what Ohio drivers and travelers should know before they need help.
The Ohio Turnpike runs about 241 miles across northern Ohio, from the Indiana line to the Pennsylvania line, carrying I-80, I-90 and I-76 traffic. Exits can be far apart, and one stretch near the Erie Islands Service Plaza runs about 19 miles without an interchange. If you have trouble, aim for a service plaza or the shoulder, and note your mile marker and direction before you request help. It makes you much easier to find.
I-70 crosses central Ohio through Columbus and Dayton. I-71 links Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati, while I-75 runs from Toledo through Dayton to Cincinnati. Heavy truck traffic and long gaps between towns on rural stretches mean a small problem can leave you stranded. Use your phone's GPS pin when you request help, and add the nearest exit number if you can.
Counties east of Cleveland, including Lake, Geauga and Ashtabula, sit in the snowbelt. Lake-effect bands can drop snow quickly and cut visibility on I-90, and ODOT sometimes lowers speed limits on parts of the corridor during storms. Keep a charged phone, a blanket and a scraper in the car. If you slide off the road, stay buckled in the vehicle unless it's unsafe, then request a tow or winch-out.
Ohio's freeze-thaw cycles weaken pavement, so potholes tend to appear from late winter into spring. A hard hit can flatten a tire or bend a wheel. If your tire goes flat, get fully off the road before you call for a tire change or tow. You can report potholes on state routes to ODOT.
Why Tow-Tow
Stranded two hours from home on I-75? You don't need to search for a local tow company or explain where you are to five dispatchers. One request reaches available providers in the area.
A dead battery, a flat, a lockout and an empty tank all need different help. Tow-Tow handles each request from the same app, so you don't need a different number for each problem.
See what you're requesting and review service information before you confirm. No guessing about what happens next.
Useful for commuters in Columbus, Cleveland and Cincinnati, and for drivers crossing Ohio on long interstate trips who don't know the area.
Coverage
You can start a Tow-Tow request from wherever you are in Ohio, from a downtown side street to a rural stretch of state route. Your request goes to roadside providers operating near your location.
Service availability may vary by location, time of day, weather, traffic and nearby operator availability. Rural areas and severe winter weather can mean longer waits. Tow-Tow connects you with independent roadside providers and does not operate local offices in Ohio cities.
