Battery Boost & Jump Start

Dead battery? Our technicians arrive with commercial-grade boosting equipment that works even in Calgary's -30°C winters. We'll test your battery after boosting and let you know if it needs replacement.

Car Lockout Service

Locked your keys in the car? We use professional lockout tools to safely unlock your vehicle without damaging the door, window, or locking mechanism. We handle all vehicle makes and models.

Flat Tire Change

Got a flat? We'll change your tire using your spare. If you don't have a spare or it's flat too, we can tow you to a tire shop. We also offer mobile tire repair for minor punctures.

Emergency Fuel Delivery

Ran out of gas? We'll bring enough fuel (gasoline or diesel) to get you to the nearest gas station safely.

Winch Out Service

Stuck in snow, mud, or a ditch? Our winch-equipped trucks can extract your vehicle safely without causing additional damage.

When to Call for Emergency Roadside Assistance

• Your vehicle won't start and you're stranded
• You're locked out of your vehicle
• You have a flat tire and can't change it safely
• You've run out of fuel
• Your vehicle is stuck and you can't get it out
• You've been in an accident and need help
• Your vehicle is overheating or has a mechanical issue

24/7 Emergency Help

Yes! Urban Tow Trucks provides flat tire assistance throughout Calgary 24/7. Whether you need a tire changed, a mobile tire repair, or a tow to a tire shop—we've got you covered.

Our Flat Tire Services

• Tire Change: We'll swap your flat for your spare tire (full-size or donut) so you can drive safely
• Mobile Tire Repair: For minor punctures, we can often repair the tire on-site so you don't lose your tire
• Tow to Tire Shop: If you have no spare or need a new tire, we'll tow you to the nearest tire shop or your preferred location

What If I Don't Have a Spare Tire?

Many newer vehicles come without spare tires (just a tire repair kit or run-flat tires). If you don't have a spare, we have options:

• Tire Repair Kit: If your vehicle came with a repair kit, we can help you use it (if the puncture is repairable)
• Mobile Tire Repair: For small punctures in the tread area, we may be able to plug the tire on-site
• Flatbed Tow: For unrepairable damage or no spare, we'll flatbed your vehicle to a tire shop of your choice

Flat Tire Pricing

Service	Typical Price
Tire Change (with your spare)	$60 – $85
Mobile Tire Repair (plug/patch)	$75 – $100
Tow to Tire Shop (if no spare)	Standard towing rates

What to Do When You Get a Flat Tire

• 1. Pull Over Safely: Move completely off the road if possible—a parking lot or wide shoulder
• 2. Turn on Hazards: Make your vehicle visible to other drivers
• 3. Assess Safety: If you're on a busy highway or in an unsafe spot, stay in your vehicle and call for help
• 4. Call Us: (403) 470-1285 – we'll come to you
• 5. Stay Safe: If waiting outside, stand well away from traffic
