Roadside Breakdown Assistance Across Dublin
Dublin Tow provides 24/7 breakdown assistance for drivers across all of Dublin — city centre, north, south and west, including all major motorways and dual carriageways. When your car stops working and you are stranded at the side of the road, our experienced team will be with you in around 30 minutes to assess the problem and get you moving again.
Our drivers carry the equipment to deal with the most common roadside breakdowns on the spot — a flat battery, a flat tyre, an empty fuel tank, or a lockout. If the problem cannot be fixed at the side of the road, we have a flatbed tow truck to take your vehicle wherever it needs to go: your garage, a dealership, your home, or a storage facility. You will know the cost before we move your vehicle — we quote before every job.
Every breakdown is stressful. Our goal is to get you a real person on the phone immediately, give you an accurate arrival time, and fix the problem with as little disruption as possible. We do not put callers on hold or give vague arrival windows.
What We Can Help With
Our breakdown service covers the situations Dublin drivers encounter most often. If your situation is not listed below, call us and describe what has happened — we will advise on whether we can help at the roadside or whether a tow is needed.

- Lockout — locked keys inside the vehicle
- Overheating — coolant top-up and advice
- Flatbed tow if the car cannot be fixed roadside
Breakdowns on Dublin's Motorways and Major Roads
Breaking down on a motorway or fast dual carriageway is more dangerous than a breakdown in a car park or residential street, and it requires a fast response. Dublin Tow attends call-outs on all of Dublin's major roads — the M50, M1, N7, N11, N4, N3 and all city routes — and we are familiar with the safe procedures for motorway recovery in Ireland.
If you break down on a motorway or fast road, the advice from the RSA is to pull onto the hard shoulder, switch on your hazard lights, get out of the car on the passenger side (away from traffic), move behind the barrier, and call for assistance. Do not stand behind or beside the vehicle. Call us immediately with your location — if you can see a motorway marker post, give us the number — and we will be on our way.
