Fuel Delivery

Out of gas in Houston? Fuel comes to you.

Quick Tow Houston connects you with mobile fuel delivery across the Houston metro for drivers who run dry on the freeway, in a parking lot, or anywhere a walk to the nearest station is unsafe or impractical. The operators carry up to 5 gallons of regular unleaded for emergencies, and dispatch can route a diesel or premium-rated tank if you call ahead. The driver pours, you start the engine, and you get to the next station. No tow needed in most cases.

What do Houston drivers ask about Fuel Delivery?

How much does mobile fuel delivery cost in Houston?

The service call is quoted up front by the operator, plus the cost of the fuel itself, before the truck rolls.

How much fuel do you bring?

Up to 5 gallons of regular unleaded. That is enough to get you to any gas station in the Houston metro and have a buffer left over. 5 gallons is the cap because once you can make it to a real pump, you should refuel properly - filling a vehicle from jerry cans is slow and you do not want to do it on a freeway shoulder.

Do you bring diesel or premium?

Yes, with advance notice. Call, tell us what you need, and the call goes to an operator with a truck stocked for that fuel. It can take longer than a standard gas run because the driver may need to fuel up first. Kerosene, racing fuel, E85, and specialty blends are not available.

What if I am on the freeway?

Stay in the vehicle with seatbelts fastened and hazards on. Tell us your closest exit number, the freeway, and your direction of travel. Dispatch routes freeway shoulder calls every day - I-10, I-45, Loop 610, Beltway 8, and US-290. Houston PD may also stop by if traffic is hazardous; that is normal.

What if my EV ran out of charge - do you bring electricity?

No. There is no equivalent of a portable charger that can give an EV meaningful range in a few minutes on the side of the road - the physics are different. If your EV is out of charge, the right move is a flatbed to the nearest Supercharger or Level-3 station, at the standard rate, quoted by the operator before dispatch.

Do I have to be AAA to call for fuel delivery?

No. Quick Tow Houston is pay-per-call - no membership fee, no waiting for enrollment, no club card needed. If you have roadside coverage through a motor club, call them first since they may cover the call. If you don't, call us direct.
