What drives the price

Why flatbed pricing costs what it does in Kensington

Local context

How we work Kensington

Kensington runs along the El and I-95 through the heart of Puerto Rican Philadelphia, roughly 63 percent Hispanic, with El Centro de Oro on the northern edge. Kensington and Allegheny Avenues carry the traffic and the Market-Frankford Line runs above Front Street. Two patterns dominate the work here. Abandoned and long-parked vehicles are a chronic problem, and the city and property owners generate steady removal calls, which run through the PennDOT salvor process once a car is declared abandoned. Lower Kensington around Fishtown is gentrifying fast, so newer permit zones and private-lot enforcement off Frankford Avenue are climbing. Every page of this site, the quote form included, is published in Spanish, and a message left in Spanish is read in Spanish. The register here is Caribbean: carro, grua, el pound.

Kensington pricing FAQs

Common Kensington cost questions

How much does flatbed towing cost in Kensington?

Flatbed towing in Kensington is quoted before dispatch, and it costs more than a wheel lift because all four wheels come off the ground and the setup takes longer. Mileage beyond what the quote covers is stated in the quote.

Why does my car need a flatbed in Kensington?

All-wheel drive vehicles, every electric vehicle, low-clearance and lowered cars, and anything damaged or non-rolling need a flatbed so nothing drags and no driveline takes damage. We line up a flatbed for those, and you're told why on the call.

Is flatbed always more expensive than a regular tow?

The flatbed base is higher, yes. For the cars that need one it prevents damage that costs far more than the difference. For a standard sedan that rolls, the assigned operator may quote a wheel lift instead of a deck.
