Tow truck in Clara Barton, Edison: short driveways, Amboy Avenue's lots, and the hospital garage up James Street

A dozen cars in a lot built for eight, with the exit onto a busy two-lane road. The wheel-lift hooks the car in place, lifts and eases it out between the others.

If the car is all-wheel drive it goes onto the rollback out on the avenue, where there is room for the deck.

Most of the houses here were built before anyone owned two cars. The rollback stays in the street, the winch line goes up the drive, and the car comes down to the deck on its own wheels, straight, with a driver at the controls the whole way.

He phones ahead so the second car can be moved to the curb.

Visitors and staff come back to cars that will not start after a long shift or a long day, and that is a jump at one flat price before it is anything else. The garage has a ceiling, so a car that has to move is fetched to the exit on a wheel-lift or dollies.

Say which lot or level and whether you are with the car.

Where the section meets Route 1 and the Woodbridge line at Fords, with jughandles, short merges and the King Georges Post Road corner. A stalled car in a jughandle is a wheel-lift call; a rear-ender at the lights is rollback work with photos for the adjuster.
