Junk car removal in Boston means hauling away a vehicle that no longer runs or is not worth repairing. Have the year, make, condition and location ready when you call Boston Towing Service. Other local providers publish about $50–$125 for a standard tow, which is the market baseline to compare against.
A car that has been sitting is not just an eyesore. It is a problem for whoever owns the driveway or lot, and the longer it stays, the more it deteriorates and the harder it becomes to move. If the car cannot roll, say so up front, because it changes the equipment needed.
Boston Towing Service takes removal calls Mon–Fri Open 24 hours, closed Sat–Sun. Be upfront about the condition of the car and where it sits so the quote matches the job.
What do I need ready before I call?
Have the basics together: year, make, model and the VIN if you can find it. Know whether the car starts, whether the wheels turn, and if the keys exist.
Also be clear about ownership. If the title is lost or the car belongs to someone else, ask what paperwork the removal requires before you commit, since requirements are set by the state and not by the tow company.
- Year, make, model, VIN
- Does it start? Do the wheels turn?
- Keys and title status
- Where it is: driveway, lot, street or garage
Will I be paid for the car or charged to remove it?
It depends on the vehicle and the arrangement, and this page does not promise either. Ask when you call whether the quote is a charge, a payment, or a free haul, and get it stated before the truck arrives.
Published towing prices from other Boston-area providers give you a reference for the hauling part. Those are market figures and not a quote from this business.
Can a car stuck in tight spaces still be removed?
Often yes, but tell the dispatcher about the obstacles. A car boxed in by other vehicles, on a steep driveway or behind a gate may need extra equipment or time, and the price reflects it.
Do you take cars that do not run?
Non-running cars are the usual case for removal. Tell the dispatcher whether the wheels turn and if the car is in gear or locked, since that determines how it gets loaded.
How soon can a junk car be picked up?
That depends on when you call and what the schedule looks like. Ask for a specific window when you book instead of assuming one.
Do I need to be there?
Arrange it when you call. Many people want to hand over keys and paperwork in person, so confirm what is needed and whether someone has to be present.
