24/7 Towing & Roadside Assistance in City Heights, CA

City Heights is one of the most freeway-cut neighborhoods in San Diego. I-15 runs straight through the middle in a trench, SR-94 forms the southern boundary, and El Cajon Boulevard and University Avenue carry heavy east-west traffic across the whole area. That combination produces two very different kinds of tow: freeway-shoulder emergencies in the I-15 trench, and everyday no-starts on dense residential blocks. Heavy Hitt Towing handles both, 24 hours a day.

The I-15 stretch through City Heights has short merge distances at University Avenue, El Cajon Boulevard, Wightman Street and Home Avenue, and the shoulder narrows in places. When a vehicle quits there, exposure time is the whole problem. Our drivers arrive with cones, reflective triangles and high-visibility gear, set up a protected work zone before touching the car, and load quickly to clear the lane.

Away from the freeway, City Heights is apartment-heavy, and the parking that comes with it drives our roadside volume. Battery jump starts in apartment lots and carports off Fairmount, Euclid and 54th Street. Lockouts in the shopping-center lots along University Avenue. Flat tires from curb and pothole damage on the older side streets. Fuel delivery for people trying to stretch a tank to payday. These are the calls we run here most.

We cover the full patchwork of City Heights communities — Corridor, Azalea Park, Fairmount Park, Fairmount Village, Castle, Cherokee Point, Colina del Sol, Islenair, Ridgeview, Swan Canyon and Teralta East and West. Canyon-edge streets around Swan Canyon and Manzanita Canyon have grade and dead ends, so our drivers plan the approach before committing a truck down a narrow block.

Heavy Hitt tows passenger vehicles using wheel-lift equipment, which is the right size for apartment carports and tandem spaces that a flatbed can't reach. We tow to your mechanic, a dealership, or home anywhere in San Diego County, and our dispatcher quotes pricing before a truck rolls.
