Pickup guidance for Van Nuys
After a collision, start with people's safety. Contact emergency services for injuries or immediate danger, and follow responders' instructions. When it is safe to arrange a customer-requested tow, tell Maps Towing where the car has stopped and what damage you can see. A wheel pushed out of position, broken steering, or loose bodywork changes the loading assessment. Our Van Nuys and Burbank offices coordinate the request around vehicle condition, access, and current truck availability.
Availability and arrival estimates depend on your location, traffic, and the assistance required.
Local Coverage
Describe the Scene on Van Nuys Streets or the I-405
Give the nearest cross street on Van Nuys Boulevard, Sherman Way, Victory Boulevard, or Sepulveda Boulevard, then explain whether the car is in a travel lane, at the curb, or inside a lot. For an I-405 pickup, identify the direction and whether the vehicle is on the main roadway or a ramp. Use information you can obtain safely; do not walk toward traffic to read a sign. If the vehicle has already been moved from the collision scene, give its current location rather than the original intersection. Confirm the body shop or other receiving address before loading.

Good To Know
Van Nuys Collision Pickup Questions
Prepare the damage, access, and destination details needed for your towing request.
Describe the affected corner of the vehicle, whether the tire appears displaced, and anything you can observe without approaching traffic or going underneath the car. Do not test the steering or drive a few feet to prove that it still moves. Our accident towing service assesses the loading requirements from the vehicle and scene details. A truck being nearby does not establish that it has the right setup for a damaged wheel; dispatch needs that information before assigning the job.
Provide the business address, actual driveway, and where the car sits within the property. Near the Civic Center or Van Nuys Airport, a landmark alone may not identify the vehicle entrance. Arrange access with the property contact if there is a gate or restricted area. Explain whether another vehicle or a wall blocks the damaged side. The Van Nuys service-area page provides broader pickup information; access to a particular facility still needs to be confirmed for your request.
No. Carrying the car and getting it onto the truck are separate parts of the job. A vehicle with locked wheels, collapsed suspension, or parts dragging underneath needs an appropriate loading assessment. Tell dispatch about the keys, parking brake, visible damage, and any leaks you can see safely. Flatbed towing in Van Nuys may suit the transport, but the operator must confirm how the vehicle can be loaded. Do not attach a rope or attempt to straighten a damaged wheel.
Ask whether the shop can receive a collision-damaged vehicle in its current condition, which entrance to use, and who will accept the car and keys. Tell it if the vehicle cannot roll or steer. A repair appointment does not automatically confirm unloading space or after-hours access. Our repair-shop towing guide explains the handoff details. Discuss repair authorization, insurance coverage, and reimbursement directly with the relevant shop or insurer; arranging transport does not guarantee payment or a repair start time.
No. Maps Towing handles customer-requested towing and does not locate or release police/OPG-impounded vehicles. If another company has already removed the car, establish where it is and the applicable access arrangements before requesting any onward transport. For a vehicle still available for pickup, describe the scene and destination when calling. Our post-accident guide covers general preparation. Call for the current ETA; traffic, vehicle condition, access, and truck availability affect arrival. Call (818) 797 - 1560. For a breakdown without collision damage, review emergency towing in Van Nuys instead.
