Which towing services listed for Elgin run around the clock?

3 of the 15 services on this page state 24-hour operation. Overnight the phone is usually a dispatcher, not the yard office, so the truck can come at 3 a.m. while the gate that releases your car does not open until morning. Ask about both when you call.
