Locked your keys in the car in Back Bay? Lockout service is quoted before the truck rolls.
Why car lockout pricing costs what it does in Back Bay
A lockout around the colonial-era downtown blocks, the I-93 O'Neill Tunnel and the strict Back Bay permit districts, where access matters more than distance is quoted before the truck rolls, with after-hours calls stated on the phone rather than added at the door. The operator confirms the unlock method for your door on the call, since a modern electronic lock is not the same job as an older mechanical one.
Back Bay runs one of the strictest resident permit districts in the city, and Patriots' Day closes marathon-route streets to parking every spring. Meters, alley access behind the brownstones and event restrictions shape the work far more than mileage does, so the cost turns on getting the truck to the car.
How we work Back Bay
Back Bay is a strict resident-permit district, and the permits are zone-specific, so a Back Bay sticker does not cover South Boston and the reverse is just as true. Permits are free and good for two years, but they do not override meters, street cleaning or a snow emergency. On Patriots' Day the Marathon route turns whole streets into posted tow zones, and cars left on them get taken. The rest of the year the pressure is ordinary meter and permit enforcement on Boylston, Newbury and Commonwealth Avenue. A city tow lands at 200 Frontage Road, where the fee is $90 and storage is $3 an hour up to $15 a day. The operator we send covers the breakdown and the private lockout; when the city has the car, we tell you which lot and what to bring.
