Whether your car breaks down at 2 AM on I-80 or noon on a Saturday, call (319) 963-2108 and we will dispatch a technician immediately.
What types of vehicles do you tow?
We tow passenger cars, pickup trucks, SUVs, vans, motorcycles, and heavy-duty vehicles up to one ton. Our fleet includes both flatbed and wheel-lift tow trucks, so we can safely transport everything from a lowered sports car to a full-size Ford F-350. For AWD and luxury vehicles, we always use flatbed towing to prevent drivetrain damage during transport.
Do you provide roadside assistance without towing?
Absolutely. Many roadside problems can be solved on the spot without a tow. IC Roadside & Key offers jump starts starting at $50, spare tire changes, emergency fuel delivery for gasoline and diesel vehicles, auto lockout service, and mobile battery replacement. If we can safely get you back on the road without towing your vehicle, that is always our first recommendation to save you time and money.

What should I do if I hit a deer in Iowa?
Iowa ranks among the top states for deer-vehicle collisions, especially between October and December. If you hit a deer, pull safely off the road and turn on your hazard lights. Do not approach the animal. Call 911 if anyone is injured, then contact your insurance company to file a claim — comprehensive coverage typically covers deer strikes. Call IC Roadside & Key at (319) 963-2108 for towing or roadside assistance if your vehicle is not drivable.
How do I handle a breakdown on I-80?
If your vehicle breaks down on I-80 near Iowa City, safely move to the right shoulder or the nearest exit. Turn on hazard lights and set out reflective triangles or flares if available. Stay inside your vehicle with your seatbelt on — interstate shoulders are dangerous, especially at night. Call IC Roadside & Key at (319) 963-2108 for fast response along the I-80 corridor. Our average I-80 response time is under 30 minutes.
