PGH Junk Cars provides towing service in Millvale, PA, a small borough along the Allegheny River off Route 28. The company's dispatch point at 1448 Babcock Blvd shares Millvale's 15209 zip code, putting help genuinely close by. Services include 24/7 towing, roadside assistance, and free towing on vehicles purchased for cash, backed by over 20 years of experience.
We Share a Zip Code With Millvale
It's not a marketing line — PGH Junk Cars' home base at 1448 Babcock Blvd and Millvale both sit in the 15209 zip code. For a borough packed into two-thirds of a square mile between the Allegheny River and steep surrounding hillsides, that kind of proximity means less time waiting once you call.
Millvale has two main commercial strips, Grant Avenue and North Avenue, lined with breweries, diners, and record shops, plus a well-known — and genuinely tricky — six-point intersection where Grant Avenue, East Ohio Street, and the Route 28 ramps all meet. Anyone who drives through it regularly knows it's not a place you want a dead battery or a stalled engine.
Where We Get Called in Millvale
- A car that stalls right at the Grant Avenue / East Ohio Street / Route 28 interchange
- A breakdown on one of Millvale's steep hillside streets
- A dead battery outside a bar or restaurant along Grant Ave or North Ave
- A vehicle affected by seasonal high water near Girty's Run, which has flooded parts of the borough in the past
- An old car that's simply run its course and needs to go
However it happens, one call gets a truck headed your way.
