Mobile tire rescue · Absecon, New Jersey
You don't need a tow. You need a wheel.
A van comes to the shoulder, the office lot, or your driveway. We swap the wheel, torque it to spec, and hand you the damaged one. You drive home.

01 / Dispatch
What actually happens when you call.
Four steps. The first one is a person, and the second one is a number. Nothing moves until you say go.
Median: 90 sec on the phone · 22 min on scene
-
You call
0:00 – 0:40A person answers. Not a menu, not a call center two states over. Tell us the tire, the town, and whether you're sitting in a travel lane. That last one changes everything.
-
We quote it flat
0:40 – 1:30One number before the van moves. If it's sidewall damage we tell you on the phone, because that's not a patch, that's a spare.
-
We roll up, chock, and lift
1:30 – 24:00Cones out, chock in, jack under the pinch weld. If you're on the traffic side without a barrier, we move the car first. The wheel can wait.
-
Wheel on, torqued, you're gone
24:00 – 31:00Star pattern, 80–100 ft-lb, tools counted twice. We hand you the damaged wheel. Keep it, it's yours. Re-check the lugs after 50 miles.
02 / Services
Six jobs. One van.
If it isn't on this list, say so on the phone. We'll tell you straight whether we can do it at the curb or whether you need a bay.
T-02
from $65Spare swap
Your donut or full-size spare, mounted and torqued. We check the spare's pressure before it goes on, not after.
T-03
from $45Re-torque & TPMS reset
For the wheel you swapped yourself in the rain. All five lugs in a star pattern, sensors relearned, light off before we leave.
T-04
from $25Valve stem & lug replacement
Cracked stem, stripped stud, one lug nut short. Common sizes ride in the van, including the odd ones that like to disappear.
T-05
quotedNo spare? We bring a wheel.
A matched used wheel and tire off the van, or a new one from the shop if you need it that day. You pay for the wheel, not the trip out.
225/65R17 · 60 psi

monthlyFleet & office-lot service
Scheduled pressure and tread checks for crews and company cars, on your lot, before the day starts. Torque sheets signed.
03 / Pricing
Flat numbers, printed on the ticket.
Priced by the job, not the clock. If we can't save the tire, you don't pay for the repair. The trip out is already in the number.

Prices cover standard passenger wheels within 40 miles of Absecon. Oversized, locked lugs, and heavy-duty wheels are quoted on the phone.
04 / Coverage
Where the van goes.
Atlantic County, out to 40 miles of Absecon. Windows are typical, not promises. Traffic on the pike decides more than we do.
Hard limit
Beyond 40 miles of Absecon, call first. We'll tell you yes or no, and who else to try.
Expressway shoulder
Say the mile marker. We'll call State Police while we're rolling, so the lane is closed before we're in it.

05 / Safety
The traffic side is not a place to stand.
Three rules. They were written by someone who has knelt in the gravel at 2 a.m. with an 18-wheeler shaking the car, and they are not negotiable.
"I've seen a car come off a scissor jack on Route 30. The jack was fine. The rocker panel wasn't."
-
RULE 01
Stand behind the barrier, not beside the car.
No barrier means stay in the car with your belt on and the hazards running. A car is a crumple zone. You are not.
-
RULE 02
Chock the diagonal wheel.
A scissor jack holds the car up. It does not hold it still. One chock in front of the opposite corner, one behind.
-
RULE 03
Never under a car on a jack.
Not for a tool, not for a strap, not for one second. Jack stands or a lift. That's the whole rule, and it has no exceptions.

Drywall screw, right rear. Plugged it in 19 minutes from the call to the torque wrench, and she still made her shift at 3.

No spare in the well, just a can of foam and a prayer. Brought a matching 225/65R17 off the van. Mounted in the lot, torqued, and he drove home on it.

TPMS light after a self-swap. Two lugs were hand-tight at best. Re-torqued all five in a star pattern, reset the sensors, no charge for the visit.
07 / FAQ
Questions we get
at the window.
Straight answers. If yours isn't here, call. Somebody picks up at 3 a.m.
(609) 481-7777Is it safe to drive on a donut?
Short distance, low speed, dry road. 50 miles max and 50 mph max, and only to a shop. Stay out of the highway and the carpool lane. If the donut is older than ten years or holding under 30 psi, don't drive on it.
Can a sidewall tear be plugged?
No. A sidewall carries the load and flexes constantly, so a plug there fails at speed. That tire is finished, and we tell you on the phone before we drive out.
Do you work on the shoulder of the expressway?
Only with a barrier or a lane closure, and usually with State Police already on scene. If you are stopped in a live lane, stay buckled and call 911 first. We roll behind them.
What if I have no spare?
We bring a wheel. A matched used tire from the van, or a new one from the shop if you need it that day. You pay for the wheel, not the trip.
Do you charge if you can't fix it?
There's no repair fee when the tire can't be saved. You pay for a wheel only if you take one, and we say so on the phone when we already know.
How do I pay?
Cash, card, or Zelle. No surcharge on any of them. The receipt is texted before we pull away.
