From the first words of dispatcher Andrew who called MINUTES after AAA processed my dead battery possible alternator request, he showed me he was my kind of people. He heard i'd waited two hours for last 5 Star Auto that was dispatched and also their diagnosis. They blamed their failure to jump start my car on a bad alternator and left. His first concern was whether I was aware a tow to Madison NJ from Hackensack would cost me $170. I said I did - but then expressed concern I pay that ...and said first thing they'd do was sent Pete who was mechanically inclined to try jumping it. Pete cane and in a heartbeat jump my old poor man's Honda to life. And he was a live wire, crackling with a love of life intensity that had descended over time from his Sicilian bloodline. We chatted as it charged and when he left, he demurred a tip. We even laughed we were politically different but not where it matters most: hard work, honesty and helping our fellow men (and women!) He also quickly explained why the other prior drip failed to jump my car to life. That guy bragged he'd been charging dead batteries all day with his charger. Pete explained the obvious: that was why his charger didn't work! GRATZI MILKE BROOKSIDE! These guys could have just towed me 34 miles without ever questioning the priory inept assessment. They could have money on the two. But they didn't. Their first instinct was more akin to one you'd have for family or friends. "Let's see if we can save you that money" their actions showed - not "Let's see how we can make money off you." Men of honor - American souls in action. read more

Great attention to detail, hassle-free, fast turnaround. Worked on our Ford F350 Service Body. Great customer service.

Leaving this review for towing service. Called AAA and these guys showed up within 20 mins. Specifically it was Ramon who was incredible and understanding.

Bergen Brookside helped me out big time when I had a tire blowout on the Garden State Parkway last night. I dialed #GSP (#477) to get connected to the New Jersey Turnpike Authority's Operation Center, where one of their dispatchers sends an authorized vehicle to provide roadside assistance. FYI - When you're on either the Turnpike or G.S. Parkway, for towing or any roadside service, you're required to go with the NJTA's companies. Fortunately, Bergen Brookside is one of them. This was my first flat tire on a highway. I was driving alone and it was night time, too. I was freaked out. Within 30 minutes after calling dispatch, a Bergen Brookside truck pulled up on the shoulder where my disabled car was. Brian was the tow truck operator who help me - he was professional, answered my questions, and replaced the flat with the donut tire with cars whizzing by and everything.... 5-stars! read more

Bergen Brookside is very professional Their trucks a spotless even in our salty winters I put a call into AAA Monday morning ~1/20/25 @ 8:00 am They said the tow truck would arrive @ 10:00 am The Bergen Brooks-side truck was there @ 9:00 am A lot of snow, the driver knew what to do!

I am reviewing the auto body shop division of this business. I highly recommend Bergen Brookside as to both the customer service I received and the body work that was done. From the start of bringing my car in through eventually picking up my vehicle, I was kept apprised every step of the way. The staff (especially Laurie) explained the process and what to expect. I even received my car back a day earlier than was anticipated. They did an excellent job with my car. It was hard to believe that the car had been in an accident as it looked brand new! Thank you again Bergen Brookside for your expertise work on my car and for your caring and communicative attitude while the work was being done. read more

After a car accident it was obvious my Subaru needed a new door. As with all accidents there could have been additional damage. Fortunately that was not the case. Since we were going away, I delayed leaving my car at Bergen Brookside. In the time I was away they ordered the parts they knew were necessary. After I arrived home, I took my car into the shop. They got right to work and completed all the repairs in record time - 4 days! The best part is that my car looks like it just came out of the showroom! Incredible service! Impeccable work! Kudos and thanks! Joan H read more

Bergen Brookside Auto Body & Towing - Towing Near Me - Hackensack, New Jersey

Following their arrival to pick up my truck there driver asked me and directed me as to how to position my truck so he could pick it up following his directions, he directed me to back up when one of my tires in the front was already slightly tilted causing the front axle to collapse and what should have been a couple of $100 turned into a $1,500 repair which brookside denied any responsibility for but the mechanic that fixed it knew the technician from brookside and said that he was wrong and he admitted it after I dropped my vehicle off and was no longer present. Brookside denied responsibility completely. Terrible company all about the money no responsibility no integrity would never recommend. Didn't even hear me out before they were running from responsibility young tow truck driver inexperienced untrained it would appear, shameful how a company that gets so much work from the Town and county to be so irresponsible and negligent. Didn't even want to hear about it my mistake was not taking pictures before I listened to their drivers instructions, not a way to treat customers just greedy money grabs and cheap help that's an experienced. read more

My car looks brand new and drives great. As I made my way home, I was a bit nervous, but I feel so confident that I have such a great and reliable car repair shop like Bergen Brookside. They are great and communicated every step of the process. Again, thank you. read more

My car was hit from behind and needed a new bumper. Rosie was so polite to speak with, and Dash did a beautiful job fixing my car. They even washed it inside and out before returning it to me. I don't want another car accident, but if it happens, I'm heading back to Dash. read more

My car suddenly stalled on the Garden State Parkway on a Saturday Afternoon; I called AAA and they sent Bergen Brookside to get my car out of a dangerous place and they came very quickly. The tow truck driver was polite and considerate but left me at a closed lot to do another job before being sure I had been able to contact a ride to the train to continue south to the Washington, DC area. Fortunately after an hour he came back and graciously gave me a ride to a convenience store where I could withdraw cash for a Lyft, which he was kind enough to arrange himself. He should get a raise. On a sour note, my car was in storage at BB from about 5 PM Saturday afternoon until just before 10 AM Tuesday morning, and the storage charge ($43 per day) came to $178. Seems a bit excessive considering I had them look the car over to see if they could possibly to the repair work (it turned out that my gas tank had a hole in it and the straps holding it in place had corroded) and I could not get anyone on the phone there until Monday. I was very fortunate to find a friend of a friend willing to pick up the car quickly, but I don't think that the car was in "storage" until BB decided they could not do the repair. read more

The team at Bergen Brookside Auto Body and Towing did an amazing job on my Jeep Grand Cherokee after my truck was hit from behind! They worked with the claims adjuster with very little involvement from me. I received numerous updates from the team and even the owner, John called me to give me an updated status weekly! Everyone I spoke to was polite and professional. The truck looks brand new! They did a 5/5 job. I would recommend them for all your auto body needs. Thank You Michael R read more

A few weeks ago, my car died in an intersection in Westwood. A nice guy pushed my car across the intersection and the police called Brookside. I asked the driver to tow it to my Volvo mechanic in Bergenfield, but he said he couldn't. Instead, he brought it to a local mechanic who was literally one block away on Fairview. I was charged $125 for this. After the weekend, I had it towed to Bergenfield from Westwood. A different towing company charged me $120. $125 for one block is not only outrageous, but criminal. They clearly took advantage of the situation I was in, and being elderly, alone, and overwhelmed, it was cruel. Shameful. read more

The worst Towing Service that AAA has. My Mother who is diabetic had her waiting for 4hours. Her glucose went up and i had to take her to the hospital only to have the tow truck driver from Brookside towing tell me that although my mom is 73 and her glucose went up she needed to be there cause it is a company policy. We have possibly used AAA about 10x this year and not once has my mother ever been there or showed her mwmber ID. They are very fast to collect the 90 dollars for the Tow but they cant tow the car of a 73 year old person with medical conditions cause she is not there to follow there company policy that is never obeyed. Discusting customer service and the female who answered the phone call for AAA was even more discusting and unproffessional. I will be canceling my Gold Membership which ive had for 8yrs. read more

This place is garbage. From dispatch to drivers absolutely terrible. Took 5 hours for a car that was 15 minutes away and when the driver finally arrives he has an attitude and denies taking the vehicle because the member with the triple A card wasn't there. The member was 10 minutes away and they didn't want to take the car and drove off after taking our pre payment from triple A. Don't waste your time calling this place they are terrible business. read more

I got into an accident Monday at 6:00 after work, I was sent directly to the hospital. My vehicle was unfortunately sent to brook side towing. Wednesday, when I got out of the hospital I was given a quote of between $220-240 if I picked up the car that day, and $30 every additional day. The car was left Monday night to Friday afternoon. Friday when I came to pick up the car, the bill was a whopping $366.91. How generous! On top of that, I ordered a tow to AAA to avoid them, they picked up my account through AAA and said my car would be back home in an hour. This was 3:30 PM, with three of their tow trucks sitting outside. It is now 10:00 PM at night, and they have been turning town AAAs calls, avoiding my own calls, and have apparently put my car as a "Non urgent call" in the AAA system. This is the most unprofessional service I've ever used. Con artists to a T. Next time stop profiling people because you think they won't say anything. Please don't let them tow you if you have a say. Edit- They actually didn't arrive until 11:40, almost midnight, so coming out of the hospital I had to stay up all night instead of resting. Thoughtful guys! Glad my car is safe at Regal Auto Body in Bloomfield NJ and not with some shmuck with a jazz cap on. Goodnight and good riddance. read more

All I can say is that said they would be here in 30 minutes and they did. I was stuck on the garden state parkway freaking out. They came in no time and changed my exploded tire. Very nice guy that helped me out too! Would definitely reccomend! read more

This morning on my way to the vet, I got a flat tire. In less than 20 minutes, John arrived. I explained that I had my dog in the car and he said, no problem, just take him out for a few minutes while I move your car. Then I put my dog back in the car, and jumped into the nice warm truck. Very quickly we arrived at my usual service station. John is a true professional, very reassuring and kind. I am very grateful to him and Bergen Brookside. I never thought a flat tire could lead to such a pleasant experience! Thanks, John! read more

Five stars. No question about it. Extremely honest, helpful, fast and polite. I am so happy that I now know where to turn for autobody needs in the future! They were able to quickly repair a small problem when my dealer wanted me to replace the entire part. Saved me a ton of money. Thank you so much for your professional and honest service!!! read more

Last week we had terrible freezing weather, and I was at the mall. I ran outside to check my car and I could not get in, as the doors were frozen shut. I went back inside and called the police. They were absolutely no help and suggested that I call a towing company. So, I called Bergen Brookside, my hometown tow company. I explained what was going on, and the dispatcher said there were no trucks available, but maybe in an hour or so. That was fine by me, as I was not yet ready to leave. As I was walking out an hour later my cell rang, and it was Bergen Brookside telling me that the truck was waiting by my car. I couldn't believe it! When I walked over I gave my door another tug, and it opened! Bergen Brookside would not take a penny, since they said that they did nothing. Unbelievable! I was stunned! If you ever need car assistance in Bergen County, they should be your very first call! read more

My car got a flat in the middle of Garden State Parkway, being that it was the first time this has ever happened to me, I was clueless and terrified about the pricing or where to even go to get my car fixed. Craig was phenomenal--he was kind and understanding and made sure that me and my boyfriend were able to find a place to get my car fixed. He also was so engaging with us despite us being incredibly flustered about the situation. Being new to the area he recommended things we could do while we waited for our car to be serviced. He is a complete asset to this company and has made a normally stressful situation SO much more bearable and I couldn't thank him enough! read more

Most importantly, the car paint was not blended properly. You can tell the difference in the paint colors from the front fender to the car door !!!!! read more

When one is urgently towed, one is helpless and is forced to trust the driver sent to help. There is no time to research and verify the ratings. This is why I am highly impressed with Bergen Brookside and its driver, Johnny O. Johnny O. is a consummate professional who reassured me, explained the entire process, offered his wisdom and insight, and most of all, handled my car with care and love. If you need a tow and have a choice, call Bergen Brookside and ask for Johnny O.! read more

The employee that towed my car here caused more damage to my car and my side mirrors by pushing the mirrors in that's automatic. While towing my car, the guy was very angry and aggressive. After just getting out of an accident he was simply asked "will towing it this way, mess up my bumper". Instead of answering, he became defensive and stated "It's not fault you got into an accident and you should learn how to drive". After coming out of a traumatic experience this was very uncalled for. While ripping off my entire bumper, he didn't even explain anything he just keep doing what he was doing. I'm not sure if it's because I'm black, but he came off very aggressive and angry for no reason at all. After visiting the towing yard, it appears to me that they encourage this type of behavior from their employees. The guy that towed my car even took it upon himself to push the bumper piece back in as if he is trying to hide the damage that was done. I don't know what kind of business this is but it's appears to be a shady one. read more

I had a minor auto emergency while in the area and found them through Yelp. I don't always trust Yelp reviews or leave them, but took a chance and am glad I did. These guys have excellent customer service. Everyone was friendly, from the office to the people working on my car. They explained everything to me at each step, were knowledgeable and seemed honest. My problem didn't end up being something serious luckily, but I would definitely go here again if I had a problem. If you need a place in this area it is 100% worth checking out. read more
