Green Towing San Diego is dedicated to providing the highest quality towing services and roadside assistance.  Fast response times is very important to us since most of our customers call us in emergency situations.

Towards the end of last year, 2011, we noticed an increase of emergency calls in the North County San Diego area. Drivers on the road were getting stuck on the road with more flat tires, dead car battery problems, and overall mechanical problems or damage caused by accidents. We felt our response times were slipping as we were unable to sufficiently cover this area with our current fleet.

As a result, Green Towing North County San Diego added another tow truck to more efficiently service our customers on the road. With a new tow truck, we are more equipped to handle multiple roadside emergencies deserving our attention.

Now that we are beginning May, 2012, we are proud of how our team has utilized our new tow truck to help more drivers stranded on the road. From providing basic tow services like flat tire fixes to more involved needs like heavy duty towing, Green Towing San Diego continues to provide quality work with fast response times!

We’ll arrive at your location in 30 minutes or less!

Reliability and customer satisfaction is important at Green Towing San Diego. We are listed with the BBB (Better Business Bureau) as a testament to our dedication and quality work. Check our BBB Barcode at the bottom, scan, and check out more details.

Stuck on the Road? Here Are Important Safety Tips

1. First and foremost, you’ll need to pull your vehicle off the road as much as you can. If you are on a highway, move onto the shoulder of the road. Be sure to exit out of the passenger side, so you don’t open your door to oncoming traffic. Of course immediately call for help.
2. Next, you want to make sure your vehicle is visible for a variety of reasons. At the very least, turn on your hazard lights. This signals to oncoming traffic that there is a vehicle either slow moving or parked ahead. You can increase your visibility by also using flares or the hazard triangle. Place these signals far behind your car to give enough warning to drivers.
3. Next, stay in your vehicle as you wait for help to arrive. Keep the doors locked and generally be cautious about accepting help from strangers. If you feel suspicious, only lower your window slightly to speak with them. If you don’t feel comfortable with them, you can always say that you’ve already called for help and it’s on the way – and thank them.

If you are still looking for help and cannot get in touch with a towing company or police, be sure to display the proper distress signals. The usual signs that you need help are: raising the hood of your vehicle and tie a white cloth (or any light cloth – especially in the dark) to your radio antenna.

Building a Roadside Emergency Kit

Green Towing San Diego has put together a list of useful items to carry in your vehicle. Roadside emergencies can come up at any time and you may not have immediate access to San Diego roadside assistance. These items can help you get prepared and even properly take care of the issue on your own.

• First Aid Kit
• Tire gauge (to measure the pressure in the tires)
• Jack and lug wrench (for dealing with a flat tire)
• Foam tire sealant (for temporarily fixing a flat tire if there is only a minor puncture)
• Jumper cables (for giving a boost to your car’s dead battery)
• Flashlight

Of course there are other items you may want to consider, such as a fire extinguisher, flares or the hazard triangle. However, the above list really gets at the core of the essentials. One of the most important items is to have the phone number handy for your auto-club card or preferred towing company. Green Towing San Diego operates 24/7, is fully certified, and provides quality roadside assistance. Please keep our number in a safe place should you ever need to use it! (858) 457-8530!

At Green Towing San Diego, we are committed to our community’s roadside safety. While we will always recommend calling a professional when you are stuck with a flat tire, there are some basic safety procedures you should know. Whether you want to change the flat tire or simply need to know what the best practices are for dealing with flat tire, this guide will be very useful for you!

What to Do If You Experience a Flat Tire

If you get stuck with a flat tire in San Diego, please give us a call at (858) 457-8530. In the meanwhile, you should get properly prepared by doing the following:

1. Turn the hazard lights on and ensure that the car that needs the flat tire repair is parked in the most level area possible and that the parking brake is on. It is also important to be right off the road to avoid the danger of being hit by a passing car.
2. Do you have a spare tire? The spare tire can be found in the trunk along with the lug nut wrench and car jack.

Basics on How to Change a Flat Tire

The team at Green Towing San Diego put together this instructions guide on changing a flat tire. We of course recommend calling for professional and certified roadside assistance, but here are the basics we think you should know:

1. Loosen the lug nuts that hold the wheel in place before you jack up the car. To loosen the nuts the wrench has to be turned counter clockwise.
2. Take out your driver’s manual for your vehicle. When jacking up the car, refer to the to it in order to ensure that the jack is placed in the safest area possible. It is important to jack the car high enough as to leave enough space (an inch or two) for removing the flat tire and easy placement of the spare tire.
3. Next, remove all of the lug nuts and place them somewhere easy to reach and easily found. The flat tire should now be taken off. Once the flat tire is removed, roll the tire to a safe area. Don’t try to pick it up as it may be heavier than you think.
4. Carefully lift and fit the spare tire onto the wheel studs. Always remember that when placing a spare tire onto the wheel studs the air valve must be facing out.
5. Replace the lug nuts and tighten them by hand. Then take the lug wrench and tighten them further, although not too tightly or else they will be impossible to loosen should another flat tire occur.
6. Lastly place the hubcap back on and return the fix flat tire tools to the trunk.

Once you have successfully changed your flat tire, remember to replace the spare tire as soon as possible.  You don’t want to get stuck in another situation like this without a spare tire.
