Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
22 frequently asked questions
Do you provide road assistance throughout Poland?
Yes! We cover all of Poland — from the A1, A2, and A4 motorways to local roads. Our fleet operates across 43 cities in Silesia and beyond, with multilingual dispatch available 24/7. Whether you're in Katowice, on the A4 near Kraków, or transiting the S1, call +48 571 426 225 and we'll send the nearest truck.
What types of vehicles do you tow?
We tow everything: cars, SUVs, vans, motorcycles, trucks up to 40 tons, and commercial vehicles. We also handle electric and hybrid vehicles on flatbed trucks (rope towing can damage EV motors). Whether it's a vintage classic or a brand-new Tesla, our specialized equipment handles it safely.
How much does road assistance cost?
Every situation is different — pricing depends on distance, vehicle type (car vs truck vs motorcycle), time of day, and the specific situation (simple tow vs accident recovery vs winching from a ditch). Use our online calculator at /cennik for a quick estimate, or call +48 571 426 225 — we ALWAYS quote the price before starting, so there are no surprises or hidden fees.
Can I pay by card?
Yes, we accept cards (Visa, Mastercard), cash, BLIK, and bank transfer. For insurance cases, we handle direct billing with the insurer — you may not need to pay anything out of pocket. We also issue VAT invoices for business clients.
How quickly will you arrive?
In cities, we typically arrive in 15-25 minutes. On motorways and intercity routes, expect 30-45 minutes. Response times depend on traffic and distance, but we always dispatch the nearest available truck. Call +48 571 426 225 for a real-time estimate.
What is road assistance?
Road assistance means on-the-spot help when your vehicle has a problem: battery jump-start, flat tire change, emergency fuel delivery, lockout service (keys locked inside), and minor on-site repairs. If the problem can't be fixed roadside, we tow your vehicle to the nearest workshop. Available 24/7, even on holidays.
Do you work with insurance companies?
Yes, we cooperate with all major Polish insurers: PZU, Warta, Ergo Hestia, Allianz, Generali, and UNIQA. If your policy includes roadside assistance, we can handle everything directly with your insurer — often you pay nothing out of pocket. Just give us your policy number when you call.
I don't speak Polish — can I still get roadside help?
Absolutely! Our dispatchers speak English, German, Ukrainian, and Russian. We help thousands of foreign drivers every year. Call +48 571 426 225 — we'll communicate in your language from the first call to the moment your vehicle is safe. You're not alone on Polish roads.
Will your tow truck driver speak my language?
Many of our drivers speak English, German, or Ukrainian. But even if your driver doesn't speak your language, our dispatch team stays on the line to translate and coordinate throughout the entire service. You'll always be able to communicate.
I'm a foreign driver and had an accident in Poland — what do I do?
First, ensure everyone is safe and call 112 if anyone is injured. Turn on hazard lights and set up a warning triangle. Fill out the European Accident Statement (available in your language at most insurers). Take photos of all vehicles and damage. If you need a tow, call us at +48 571 426 225 — we help with documentation and communicate in your language. Police are NOT required if there are no injuries, but the accident statement is essential.
My car broke down on a Polish motorway — what should I do?
Safety first: turn on hazard lights, put on your reflective vest BEFORE exiting, place a warning triangle 100 meters behind your car, and move behind the guardrail. NEVER attempt repairs on a motorway. Call 112 or use the orange SOS emergency posts (every 2 km on Polish motorways). Or call us directly at +48 571 426 225 — we'll be there in 30-45 minutes.
What emergency number should I call for a breakdown in Poland?
112 is the universal emergency number in Poland (free, works from any phone, operators speak English). For motorway assistance specifically, call 19111 (GDDKiA hotline, free). Or call us directly at +48 571 426 225 for immediate tow truck dispatch with multilingual support. On motorways, you can also use the orange SOS posts located every 2 km.
What should I do if my car breaks down at night?
We're available 24/7, including nights and holidays. Turn on your hazard lights and parking lights to stay visible. Put on your reflective vest before exiting. Move to a safe location away from traffic. Call +48 571 426 225 — we typically arrive in 25-40 minutes at night, and our trucks have full lighting equipment for safe nighttime operations.
What documents do I need when my car is towed in Poland?
Bring your ID or passport, vehicle registration certificate, and insurance documents. For insurance claims, also have photos of the scene and a completed accident statement. Don't worry if you've forgotten something — we help with paperwork and can sort out details after your vehicle is safe.
What equipment must I have in my car in Poland?
By Polish law, you must carry a warning triangle (mandatory for all vehicles) and a fire extinguisher (mandatory for Polish-registered vehicles). A reflective vest is strongly recommended and required when exiting on motorways. Fines for missing equipment can reach 500 PLN. We recommend also carrying a first aid kit and a flashlight.
Can I tow my car with a rope in Poland?
Rope towing is allowed on regular roads only — speed limit 30 km/h in cities, 60 km/h outside. The towed vehicle MUST have working brakes and steering. Rope towing is ILLEGAL on motorways and expressways. For electric and hybrid vehicles, NEVER use rope towing (it damages the electric motor) — always use a flatbed. When in doubt, call us.
How much does towing cost in Poland?
Every situation is different — pricing depends on distance, vehicle type (car vs truck vs motorcycle), time of day, and the specific situation (simple tow vs accident recovery vs winching from a ditch). Use our online calculator at /cennik for a quick estimate, or call +48 571 426 225 — we ALWAYS give you the price before starting so there are no surprises.
Does my insurance cover towing in Poland?
Most EU motor insurance policies include cross-border roadside assistance — check your policy for 'assistance' or 'roadside assistance' coverage. If you're unsure, call your insurer or call us at +48 571 426 225. We work with all major insurers and can help verify your coverage on the spot. Even without insurance coverage, we offer competitive rates.
What is the difference between OC, AC, and Assistance insurance?
In Poland, OC (third-party liability) is mandatory and covers damage you cause to others. AC (comprehensive/collision) covers damage to YOUR vehicle. Assistance covers roadside help and towing for you. If someone else caused the accident, their OC pays for your tow — call us and we handle the claim. Check our insurer pages for details on PZU, Warta, Ergo Hestia, and more.
Can you tow electric or hybrid vehicles?
Yes! We transport electric and hybrid vehicles exclusively on flatbed trucks — rope towing can seriously damage the electric motor. We handle Tesla, BMW i-series, VW ID family, Hyundai/Kia EVs, and all other electric models. Our drivers are trained in EV safety procedures including high-voltage battery handling.
My car won't start in winter — can you help?
Yes — dead batteries are the number one winter breakdown in Poland, where temperatures can drop below -20°C. We provide fast battery jump-start service. We also help with frozen fuel lines (use winter diesel!), snow extraction, and frozen door locks. Call +48 571 426 225 — we arrive in 15-30 minutes in cities, even in harsh winter conditions.
I'm a truck driver transiting Poland — do you help commercial vehicles?
Yes, we handle commercial vehicles and trucks up to 40 tons. We cover the main transit corridors: A1 (Baltic-Mediterranean), A2 (Berlin-Warsaw), A4 (Dresden-Kraków-Lviv), and S1. Multilingual dispatch understands logistics needs. We offer fleet accounts, direct insurer billing, and full VAT invoices. Call +48 571 426 225.
