Roadside assistance and towing on the route from Poland to Dubrovnik (Croatia) covers Czechia, Austria and Slovenia, the A1 motorway to Ploče, the Pelješac Bridge (since 2022, without entering Bosnia) and the D8 coastal road. The service runs 24/7 for cars, campers, trailers and motorcycles; the vehicle can be returned to Poland.
Route Overview
You drive to Dubrovnik yourself — and if the car stops on the way or once you are there, we get you and your car home. Dubrovnik and southern Dalmatia are the most far-flung Croatian destinations and the longest journey: through Czechia, Austria and Slovenia, then the A1 along the whole of Dalmatia, and since 2022 across the Pelješac Bridge, which bypasses the Bosnian Neum corridor. On a drive this long a breakdown is more likely. We are a Poland-based recovery company serving drivers across the region, and we help along the whole route.
Practical information for the road
Vignettes, tolls and borders
- Czechia – an electronic vignette is required.
- Austria – a vignette is required.
- Slovenia – an e-vignette is required; the shortest is weekly, there is no daily option.
- Croatia – NO vignette; the A1 uses ticket-based tolls (Croatia is rolling out an electronic system). The Pelješac Bridge is free.
Important: thanks to the Pelješac Bridge you stay on the Croatian side the whole way and need no passport. But if you take the old D8 coastal route you cross about 9 km of Bosnia (the Neum corridor) — that is outside the Schengen area, so there are two border checks; carry your ID — an EU national ID card is accepted.
What you must carry in the car
On this route a warning triangle and a reflective vest are mandatory – keep the vest in the cabin (not the boot) and put it on before you get out after a breakdown; ideally one per passenger. A first-aid kit is required in the transit countries on this route. Spare bulbs are useful too. Missing equipment can mean a fine if you are stopped.
When to set off
The worst queues are on Saturdays on the Croatian A1, and past its end at Ploče the winding coastal D8 slows things down – allow extra time for it. If you can, travel midweek or early in the morning, and take a break every 2–3 hours.
The most common summer breakdowns on this route
This is the longest Croatian route, so a fatigue-related breakdown is more likely; add overheating on the A1 climbs and careful driving on the narrow, winding D8. If the temperature gauge rises, pull over and switch off, but do not open a hot cooling system until it has cooled.
What affects the cost of towing from abroad
We do not quote a fixed price – every case is priced individually. It depends on:
- the distance and where the car must go (nearest workshop or home to your own country),
- the vehicle type and weight (car, camper, trailer, motorcycle),
- whether an on-the-spot repair is possible,
- whether you have assistance or comprehensive (AC) cover.
Call and describe the situation – we will give you the realistic options, with no obligation.
Assistance, third-party (OC) and comprehensive (AC) cover abroad
Third-party (OC) insurance does not cover towing your own car. Abroad, assistance cover is what matters – check whether yours applies abroad and how far it tows, as some only reach the nearest workshop. With assistance we work with your insurer; without it, we arrange transport independently.
What to tell us when you call
To get help moving as fast as possible, have four things ready:
- which country and road you are on,
- the nearest kilometre marker or exit name,
- the make and type of vehicle (car, camper, trailer, motorcycle),
- briefly what happened.
We handle the rest – the callout, contacting a workshop and any onward transport.
What we do after you call
As soon as you call, we establish exactly where you are, what you are driving and what happened. Then we:
- judge whether on-the-spot help is enough or a tow is needed,
- arrange the callout and, if needed, a workshop along the route,
- if a repair abroad is not worthwhile, transport the vehicle (and, where possible, the passengers) home to your own country,
- work with your insurer if you have assistance cover.
Throughout, you have a Polish-speaking contact.
What we do on this route
- Roadside assistance and recovery anywhere along the long journey — en route through Czechia, Austria and Slovenia, or once you are in southern Dalmatia.
- Every vehicle type: cars, vans, campers and trailers, motorcycles, light trucks.
- Help on the winding D8 coastal road and on the Pelješac Bridge.
- Coordination with workshops en route and in southern Dalmatia.
- Recovery home to your own country (Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, the Baltics) when a repair abroad is not worthwhile.
- A Polish- or English-speaking contact around the clock.
Who we help on this route
- families in fully loaded cars, including with roof boxes,
- campers and caravans,
- motorcyclists,
- vans and 7–9-seat vehicles,
- light trucks and cars with trailers,
- electric cars (flatbed transport).
What to see – Southern Dalmatia
Southern Dalmatia means above all Dubrovnik with its walled Old Town, nearby Cavtat, the Pelješac peninsula known for its wines and oysters (Ston), and the islands of Korčula and Mljet. Reaching Croatia's southern tip is a long drive, but one of the most scenic on the Adriatic.

Customer Reviews
Lightning fast, professional, polite and at a completely acceptable price. Thank you for today's help with my Kangoo and I wholeheartedly recommend to everyone!
Great, professional, reliable, and the boss himself is energetic, cool, helpful — you'd search far and wide for people like that these days.
Highest quality! Rarely do you meet such people — car towed from the highway to a service center, accommodation arranged and the whole family transported to a hotel, all on a Sunday.
I highly recommend. :)
Complete professionalism.

Do I have to enter Bosnia to reach Dubrovnik?
No. Since the Pelješac Bridge opened in 2022 the whole route stays on the Croatian side, so you no longer cross the Bosnian Neum corridor.
Do you recover the car home from Dubrovnik if it can't be fixed?
Yes. This is the longest Croatian route, so if an on-site repair is not worthwhile we arrange transport of the vehicle home to your own country — not only to Poland, but also to Czechia, Slovakia or the Baltics. Tell us where you are and what you are driving.
How long is the drive to Dubrovnik?
It is the longest of the Croatian routes — many drivers split it over two days. That is exactly why it helps to have a roadside-assistance number saved for the whole way.
Can you help on the narrow D8 coastal road?
Yes. We know the winding D8 and choose the tow truck and timing so we can safely recover the vehicle even on a narrow coastal stretch.
Do you tow from the islands too — Korčula, Mljet?
Yes, we cover the Dubrovnik area and the nearby islands. From an island, transport depends on the Jadrolinija ferry schedule, so give us the exact location and we will match the tow truck and timing to the crossing.
Do you help at night or on a Sunday?
Yes, we operate around the clock, including weekends and holidays – that is exactly when breakdowns on holiday routes happen most.
Will the assistance on my policy work on this route?
It depends on the policy – check whether your assistance applies abroad and how far it tows. Third-party (OC) cover does not tow your own car. If you have assistance we work with your insurer; if not, we arrange transport ourselves.
Do you tow electric cars?
Yes. We carry an electric car on a flatbed to the nearest working charger or home to your own country – we do not tow it on its wheels, as that can damage the drivetrain.
What if it is not a breakdown but a collision?
We help transport a damaged car too. After a collision abroad, fill in an accident statement or call the police (112) and take photos – you will need them for the insurer.
What if I am not the car's owner?
That is fine – we only need consent and the vehicle details. Keep the registration document and an ID with you.
Do you provide road assistance across Silesia?
Yes! We operate in the northern part of the Silesian voivodeship — serving 17 towns within about 25 km of Koziegłowy, including Częstochowa, Zawiercie, Myszków and Siewierz, plus the A1 motorway and national roads DK1, DK78 and DK91. Our dispatch line is available 24/7 — call +48 601 41 90 98 and we'll send the nearest tow truck.
How much does road assistance cost?
Every situation is different — pricing depends on distance, vehicle type (car vs truck vs motorcycle), time of day, and the specific situation (simple tow vs accident recovery vs winching from a ditch). Use our online calculator at /en/cennik for a quick estimate, or call +48 601 41 90 98 — we ALWAYS quote the price before starting, so there are no surprises or hidden fees.
Can I pay by card?
Yes, we accept cards (Visa, Mastercard), cash, BLIK, and bank transfer. For insurance cases, we handle direct billing with the insurer — you may not need to pay anything out of pocket. We also issue VAT invoices for business clients.
How quickly will you arrive?
In cities, we typically arrive in 15-25 minutes. On motorways and intercity routes, expect 30-45 minutes. Response times depend on traffic and distance, but we always dispatch the nearest available truck. Call +48 601 41 90 98 for a real-time estimate.
What is road assistance?
Road assistance means on-the-spot help when your vehicle has a problem: battery jump-start, flat tire change, emergency fuel delivery, lockout service (keys locked inside), and minor on-site repairs. If the problem can't be fixed roadside, we tow your vehicle to the nearest workshop. Available 24/7, even on holidays.
