The CherryVale Mall Area
Shopping destinations produce a special kind of breakdown. A car that sits for three hours in a mall lot in January often will not start when you come out. A holiday shopper locks keys in the trunk. A flat tire appears after a pothole near the entrance. These are the calls where a quick roadside van is the right answer, and the first thing dispatch will ask is which side of the mall you are on.
Big lots are easy for a flatbed. Parking decks and tight loading areas are different. If you are in a structure with a low ceiling, tell us and we send the wheel-lift unit described on our parking garage towing page.
I-90 and US-20 Junction Area
Cherry Valley sits near the point where I-90 and US-20 pass close together. Drivers join the tollway here to head toward Belvidere and Chicago, or exit to the commercial strips toward Rockford. Breakdowns happen on ramps and at merge points, and they are dangerous because cars arrive at speed.
If you are on a ramp or shoulder, stay in the car with your seat belt on, keep hazard lights flashing and call dispatch. Tell us the direction you were heading. The I-90 tollway towing page explains what we do at highway calls.
Tow Back to Belvidere or On to Rockford?
| Option | Good for | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Back to our shop at 1007 Logan Ave | Tires, brakes, electrical, cooling | Repair under one roof, no storage fee while we work on it |
| On to a Rockford shop of your choice | Dealer warranty work, specialty repairs | Quoted by mileage when you call |
| Home | Cars you will deal with later | Quoted by mileage when you call |
The right answer depends on what is wrong and who you trust to fix it. If you do not know yet, we can start with the closest safe place and plan from there.
“Cherry Valley callers always ask which way we will go. Our answer is whichever way saves you the second tow, and we tell you the cost both ways before we roll.”
