When You Lock the Keys Inside — Don’t Panic
It happens to everyone. You step out for a second — maybe to grab your phone or check a tire — and hear the click of the locks behind you.
The keys are sitting in the seat, the engine’s running, and that sinking feeling hits your stomach.
I’ve been there myself, and I’ve helped hundreds of drivers through it.
That’s why at Big Will’s Towing & Recovery, we offer 24-hour lockout service near me across Goldsboro, Dudley, Mount Olive, and Wayne County NC.
When you’re stuck, I’m just one call away — ready to get you back in your car without breaking glass or damaging your door.
24/7 Lockout Service — Anytime, Anywhere
Whether it’s 3 p.m. at Walmart or 2 a.m. on a dark backroad off US-13, we respond.
Our lockout tools are professional-grade, designed for modern vehicles — no coat hangers or pry bars.
We safely unlock:
- Cars, SUVs, and trucks (all makes and models)
- Commercial vehicles and fleet vans
- Semi cabs and box trucks
- Even RVs and work trucks with security locks
If you’ve ever searched “lockout service near me” or “towing company near me” in Goldsboro, chances are you’ve seen our name pop up.
We keep our lines open 24/7 so no one gets left waiting in the heat or cold.
Real Call: Late Night at the Gas Station
One night around midnight, I got a call from a driver at the Shell station on US-70 near Berkeley Blvd.
He’d locked his keys — and his phone — inside his car while it was running.
A police officer on scene said they’d tried another service, but nobody picked up.
Fifteen minutes later, I rolled in, had the door open in under 60 seconds, and the driver was back on the road — no scratches, no damage.
That’s the difference between a real local towing company and a big call-center service.
Damage-Free Unlocking
A lot of folks hesitate to call because they’re afraid of damage — but that’s exactly what we prevent.
Our air wedge and long-reach tools allow for precise entry without bending door frames or scratching paint.
We carry specialized wedges for both frameless glass and tight seal vehicles, plus unlock kits for semis and box trucks.
When you call me, you’re getting professional-grade service, not a guessing game.
More Than Just Lockouts — Full Roadside Coverage
Lockouts are only part of what we do.
When we roll out for a roadside call, we bring everything needed to handle:
- Jump-starts

So if your lockout turns out to be something more — dead battery, no gas, flat tire — we’ve already got it covered.
That’s why Big Will’s Towing & Recovery shows up with full readiness every time. One truck, all the tools.

How to Avoid Future Lockouts
Even though it’s our business, I always tell folks how to avoid calling me again for this:
- Keep a spare key in your wallet or toolbox.
- Use a magnetic hide-a-key box (especially for work trucks).
- If your key fob battery’s weak, replace it early — most lockouts start with a low fob battery.
- Always double check your seat before closing the door.
Still, if you ever do get locked out — you already know who to call.
