Service area
Tow truck in Brandon, FL — around the clock
Brandon sits at the eastern end of the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway — the same road our trucks take out of downtown Tampa, where we are based on S Morgan Street. It runs east with no city stoplights and ends at the I-75 interchange in Brandon. That is why Brandon is one of the first places outside the city core we cover, and why we are here at three in the morning as readily as at noon.
Call 656-777-2980How we get to Brandon
Out of our downtown base the Selmon Expressway (SR 618) heads east and ends at a direct interchange with I-75 in Brandon. The express lanes carry on to Brandon Parkway (SR 628) at Town Center Boulevard, which feeds the middle of Brandon.
Coming off I-75 we use Exit 257 — SR-60 / Brandon Blvd — the main street through Brandon and the way east toward Valrico. Most of the shopping plazas people call us from sit along it.
Brandon is roughly 13 miles east of downtown Tampa. What that means in minutes changes enormously between the evening commute and an empty highway at 3 a.m., so we do not publish an arrival time. Call us and we will tell you where the truck actually is right now.

- Cars that quit in commuter traffic on the Selmon and on Brandon Blvd, morning and evening.
- Dead batteries and keys locked inside in the mall and plaza parking off Brandon Blvd and Town Center Boulevard.
- Cars that will not start in driveways across Brandon’s subdivisions — often a jump start, sometimes a tow.
- Accident recovery on I-75 around the Exit 257 interchange.
- Vehicles moved to a repair shop or dealership in Brandon, or hauled back into Tampa.
- Cars that will not roll — seized brakes, a missing key, a locked steering column — loaded onto dollies.

What it costs
A local tow starts at $95 — that covers driving out to you and towing the car a set distance. Every mile past that is $5, and once a run passes roughly 25 miles it moves down to $3 per mile, because that comes out cheaper for you.
Roadside work — a jump start, a lockout, fuel — is quoted on the call. You get the figure before anything moves, not after.
Where the truck starts from
Our base is 124 S Morgan St, Tampa, FL 33602, in Downtown Tampa. Open 24 hours, 7 days a week — nights, weekends and holidays included, with no surcharge on the base price.
We do consent towing only: the owner of the car calls us and asks for the tow. No repossessions, no impound lot. Your car goes where you tell us.
Brandon — common questions
How fast can you get to Brandon?
It depends on where in Brandon you are and what the Selmon and I-75 look like at that moment, so we will not give you a number over the internet that we might not keep. Call us and we will tell you where the nearest truck is and what it looks like from there.
How much does a tow in Brandon cost?
A local tow starts at $95, which covers driving to you and towing the car a set distance. Beyond that it is a flat rate per extra mile, and longer runs move to a cheaper per-mile rate. The exact figure depends on where you are and where the car is going — we give it to you on the phone before anything moves, not after.
Can you tow my car from Brandon to a shop in Tampa?
Yes, that is one of our most common runs. Tell us the shop or dealership and we take it there. If you do not have one in mind, we can suggest a place.
My car will not start in a parking lot. Do I need a tow?
Often not. If it is the battery we can jump it on the spot and check the car keeps running, which is cheaper than a tow. If it will not hold, the truck is already there and we load it.
Stuck in Brandon?
A real person picks up, day or night. Open 24 hours, 7 days a week.
