What drives the price

Why car lockout pricing costs what it does in Medford

A lockout around the campus density around Harvard, MIT and Tufts and the low bridges on Memorial and Storrow drives 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.

Medford runs on the I-93 and Route 16 interchange with Tufts on its southern edge and the Mystic River through the middle. Highway breakdowns and commuter volume drive most of the work, and a tow here goes to Medford's own lot at the state-capped rate.

Local context

How we work Medford

Medford runs on two engines. Tufts University's main campus straddles the Medford and Somerville line, so student move-in, event parking and the September rush all land here. And the interchange of I-93 and Route 16 along the Mystic River puts highway breakdown and crash recovery in the mix. As a separate city, Medford's tows follow the state DPU maximum rates rather than the Boston lot's fees, a base tow up to $132 and storage up to $35 a day. Away from the campus and the highway it is ordinary residential work, lockouts and dead batteries on quiet streets. The operator we send covers the I-93 corridor, the campus and the neighborhood, and points you to the right municipal process for the car.
