English or Spanish — a real arrival window and price on the call.
Fisher Island is reached only by ferry, and that shapes every call we take here. Our trucks serve the mainland side — the MacArthur Causeway ferry terminal and Fisher Island Drive. A car on the island comes across on the boat and meets the flatbed at the dock for the tow to wherever it needs to go.
How the ferry shapes the call
Nothing drives onto Fisher Island except the ferry, so a vehicle stranded there has one way to a tow truck: the boat back to the mainland terminal. Time the call with the crossing — when the car is loaded or already waiting on the mainland side, dispatch stages the truck at the terminal area. If it is still on the island, say which ferry it will be on.
Pickups on the terminal side
The terminal area off the causeway is a working dock — lanes, staging space, ferry traffic coming and going. If your car is waiting there, give the dispatcher a precise spot: which lane, which side of the drive, whether it is blocking anything. On the causeway itself the same rules as any bridge apply — shoulder, hazards, direction — and a dropped pin removes all doubt.
Practical notes for a Fisher Island call
One detail decides everything here: which side of the water the car is on. If it is still on the island, say so first and tell dispatch the ferry schedule you are working with — the truck times its arrival to the boat.
Two sides of one call
A Fisher Island tow is really two moves stitched together: the ferry crossing, which belongs to the island, and the mainland leg, which is ours — the truck makes the roughly 24-mile run to the causeway while the car makes its crossing. Keep the handoff simple: get the car onto the boat or into a marked spot at the terminal, then let dispatch know it is there.

The standard window runs 50–80 minutes — the unit stages on the mainland side at the ferry dock, and the exact window is set when you call.
Can you tow a car that is stuck on the island itself?
Vehicles reach Fisher Island only by ferry, so the car rides the boat to the mainland side and our truck takes it from the terminal.
Is Fisher Island covered for a tow call?
Yes — every Fisher Island call is covered, handled at the MacArthur Causeway ferry terminal and along Fisher Island Drive on the mainland side.
