About Northgate

I started Northgate in 2011 with one used flatbed and a phone that never left my pocket. There are three trucks now and four of us: me, my brother Steve, Luis on nights and Carla on dispatch, and the phone still never leaves anyone’s pocket.

Most of the people who call us are having a bad day. The job is to make the next hour of it go smoothly: answer fast, say what it costs, turn up when we said we would.

From the roadside

Slid into a ditch on Ridge Road at 2 a.m. in January. Told me thirty minutes, took twenty-five, charged exactly what he said on the phone.

Locked my keys in the car with my kid's stuff in it at the mall. The driver was kind, quick, and didn't scratch the door. Saved my whole afternoon.
