Having to deal with car problems when you're already in the middle of the road is very stressful indeed. Many of us learned about basic troubleshooting solutions such as how to fix an overheated car or change a flat tire. However, there are times when those quick fixes simply won't work or aren't enough. Thankfully, there are companies offering cheap tow truck service.

It is very important to get a reliable tow service company instead of just considering the price of service. Especially if you need immediate emergency services, calling a random towing number isn’t the best thing to do. If you are a car owner, it is most ideal to have a go-to tow company’s number saved on your phone. This way, you’d have a number to call when you need assistance.

Aside from just tow truck services that can pull your car to a safe place, many tow companies also offer roadside assistance, jumpstart assistance, car locksmith services, flat tire change, and many more. When looking for a company that offers these services, consider those that are within the service area. This gives you the assurance that they can come to your location the soonest time possible. Having to wait for help to come can get extremely stressful and worrisome even more so when you need assistance while in a strange neighborhood or in the middle of the night.

If you need dependable yet cheap tow truck service in the Augusta area, Augusta Tow Truck is the company to call. We offer the services mentioned above and many more. Save our number on your phone - 706-705-5270 - and call us for immediate assistance!

When you are given your very first driver’s license, you are expected to have more than just driving skills. You must also have at least basic troubleshooting knowledge. Even if your car is regularly maintained and properly cared for, problems may happen on the road. Although very necessary, not everyone knows one of the most common and most helpful quick fixes when a car won’t start – jumpstarting. Knowing how to do it versus being aware about jumpstart safety are also two different things; it’s ideal to know more about both.
 
It can get very stressful when your car engine suddenly stops working while on the road. The hassle you will experience is just as much when you’re parked somewhere and the car won’t start anymore. There’s a very long list of possibilities and reasons that you might come up with. Especially if nothing else seems unusual, most of the time the car’s battery might be the problem. The best way to deal with a problem such as this is to call for roadside assistance. But when it takes a while for help to come or if you’re unable to call for help at all, you might have to put your jumpstarting skills to test.
 
Manual transmission and automatic transmission cars are jumpstarted in different ways. When you drive a stick shift, jumpstarting can be very challenging and would usually require another person to push the car while the other one drives and attempts to start. An automatic transmission would usually just require power transferred from another car’s battery. However, both are equally dangerous when done improperly.
 
For both kinds of cars, jumpstarting can be dangerous when you are driving alone. When you don’t call for professional assistance, you may be forced to ask help from strangers. Not a lot of people would be willing to take the time to help out a stranger. More importantly, you must know by now that not everyone on the road are good people.
