J&I Towing Service provides flat tire assistance throughout Duluth when you need help fast.

Stuck With a Flat and No Spare

When your tire goes flat in a busy parking lot or along a high-traffic corridor in Duluth, driving even a short distance can damage your wheel and create a safety risk. You may not have a spare, the tools to change it, or a safe place to work without standing near moving traffic. J&I Towing Service responds to flat tire calls throughout Duluth with the equipment and experience needed to help you get mobile again without exposing yourself to roadside hazards.

Flat tire assistance involves arriving at your location, setting up safety equipment, and addressing the tire issue on-site when possible. If you have a spare that is roadworthy, it can be installed so you can continue your trip. If the spare is missing, damaged, or you are dealing with a tire that cannot be safely repaired at the roadside, the vehicle is towed directly to a tire shop in Duluth or a location you choose. This service is used frequently by commuters heading to work, parents on school runs, and drivers traveling through Duluth on weekends who need help without delay.

Call J&I Towing Service anytime you are stuck with a flat tire and need roadside help in Duluth.

What Happens When We Arrive at Your Location


When you call for flat tire assistance in Duluth, you receive a clear estimated time of arrival and updates if anything changes. The truck arrives with a jack, lug wrench, and safety cones or warning triangles to mark the work area. If your spare tire is accessible and in usable condition, it is installed and torqued properly so you can drive safely to your next stop.

After the spare is on, you will notice your vehicle sits level again and the dashboard warning light turns off. Your car handles normally at moderate speeds, and you can proceed to a tire shop without the grinding noise or pull that comes from driving on a damaged tire. If the flat occurred because of a nail, curb impact, or blowout, you will know the cause and can plan the replacement accordingly.

If the spare is also flat, missing, or your vehicle uses a manufacturer lock key that is not available, the vehicle is loaded onto the truck and towed to the repair facility or address you provide. This service does not include tire repair or replacement, but it does connect you directly to the next step so you are not left waiting in an unsafe spot.

You probably have a few questions before calling

Most people calling for flat tire help want to know how long it will take, what happens if they do not have a spare, and whether the service works at night or in bad weather. Here are answers to the questions that come up most often.

What if I do not have a spare tire in my vehicle
If your vehicle does not have a spare or the spare is flat, J&I Towing Service will tow your car to a tire shop in Duluth or another location you choose. You will not be left stranded.
How long does it take for someone to arrive after I call
Response time depends on your location in Duluth and current call volume, but you receive an estimated arrival time when you call and updates if anything changes. Most flat tire calls are reached within 30 minutes during normal conditions.
Why is it unsafe to change a tire myself on a busy road
Changing a tire near moving traffic puts you at risk of being struck, especially if your vehicle is on a narrow shoulder or curve. J&I Towing Service uses cones, reflective markers, and positioning to reduce that risk while the work is done.
What happens if my spare tire is installed but I am not sure it is safe to drive on
You are told whether the spare has adequate pressure and tread before you leave. If the spare looks unsafe or you are not comfortable driving on it, the vehicle is towed instead.
When is flat tire assistance most commonly needed in Duluth
Flat tires happen frequently near high-traffic intersections, retail zones, and highway ramps in Duluth where debris and road damage are more common. Commuters and families running errands call most often during weekday mornings and evenings.
