Fuel Delivery

Out of gas in Memphis? We bring fuel to you.

Quick Tow Memphis arranges mobile fuel delivery across the metro for drivers who run dry on I-40, I-55, in a parking lot, or anywhere a walk to the nearest station is unsafe or impractical. The trucks we dispatch carry up to 5 gallons of regular unleaded for emergencies, and a diesel or premium-rated tank can be routed if you call ahead. The driver pours, you start the engine, and you make the next station. No tow needed in most cases.

What do drivers ask about fuel delivery?

How much does mobile fuel delivery cost in Memphis?

You pay for the service call plus the cost of the fuel itself, with the total confirmed before dispatch. Ask whether a night, weekend, holiday, or highway charge applies.

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 Memphis metro and have a buffer left over. No more than 5 gallons gets delivered, 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 highway shoulder.

Do you bring diesel or premium?

Yes, with advance notice. Call dispatch, tell us what you need, and we route a truck stocked with that fuel. It takes longer than a standard call because the truck 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 highway, and your direction of travel. Shoulder calls on I-40, I-55, and I-240 are routine. TDOT's HELP patrol may also stop by if it's within their 6am-8:30pm coverage window; 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 charging station. That flatbed transport is available at the standard EV-tow rate.

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

No. Quick Tow Memphis is pay-per-call - no membership fee, no waiting for enrollment, no need to be a AAA member. If you have AAA roadside, call them first since they will reimburse the call. If you don't, save the annual fee and call us direct.
