Jonuzi Towing — Accident Recovery in Queens NY

About Our Accident Recovery

Accident recovery is the most stressful tow situation — for the driver, for the scene, and often for the tow operator. When a vehicle has been in a collision, secondary damage is a real risk. Drivetrain components may be compromised. Wheels may be bent. The frame may be out of alignment. Running fluid leaks may create slip hazards. We dispatch rollback wrecker trucks and flatbeds by default for accident recoveries to eliminate secondary damage, coordinate with NYPD and emergency services on-scene, and provide full documentation for your insurance claim.

Why It Matters

How you handle the first hour after a car accident shapes your insurance claim for months. The photos you take, the police report you file, the tow company you pick, the body shop your car goes to — each decision has downstream financial consequences. Predatory tow operators prey on accident victims: they show up uninvited, pressure you into signing towing authorizations, haul your car to their lot, and then charge inflated storage and release fees while you're dealing with injuries and paperwork. We're the opposite. We arrive when you call, we coordinate with you and police, and we take your car where you want it to go.

For accident tows, we direct-bill your carrier so you don't pay out-of-pocket at the scene (unless there's a balance beyond your coverage).

After-Accident Protocol

  1. Ensure safety first. Check for injuries. Call 911 if anyone is hurt.
  2. Move vehicles to the shoulder ONLY if driveable and safe. If not, leave in place, step to safety.
  3. Document the scene with photos — vehicles, damage, street signs, traffic signals, other driver's info, witnesses.
  4. File a police report. Required in NYC for injuries, death, or property damage over $1,000.
  5. Call (347) 437-0185 for accident recovery. We coordinate with police on-scene and handle the rest.
  6. Give dispatch your insurance info. We direct-bill major carriers for covered accident tows.
  7. Tell us your preferred body shop. If you don't have one, we can recommend shops — no kickbacks involved.
