What it’s like in Arlington

The classic Arlington call is a car that won't start after the game, in a stadium lot where it sat with the lights or the radio on during the tailgate. Event lots sometimes close to traffic or limit who can drive in, and that changes how we reach you. Around UTA, cars sit for days in campus lots and apartment garages and slowly lose their charge.

We cover Entertainment District, Downtown Arlington, North Arlington, South Arlington and East Arlington and the rest of Arlington (76001, 76002, 76005, 76006, 76010, 76011).

Before you walk into a stadium, take a photo of the lot sign or letter. If the car won't start later, that photo is the clearest way to tell us where you are.

Wheel lock removal in Arlington

While you wait

  • Search the glovebox, trunk tray and spare well once more.

  • Ask for a tire change in the same visit if you have a flat.

Questions

01My car won't start in a stadium lot after the game. Can you get in?

Often, yes, but event lots may close to outside vehicles until traffic thins out. Send us the lot name or letter and the nearest street, and stay with the car if it's safe to do so.

02Do you come to students' cars at UT Arlington?

Yes. Tell us the campus lot or garage and your space if you have one. Some campus lots require a permit, so let us know if there's a gate or an attendant.

03Will removing the lock scratch my rim?

The tools grip the lock, not the wheel. On recessed or painted wheels the technician tells you the risk before starting.

04Can you do it and change my flat?

Yes. Book both in one request so one visit covers it.
