How to Get Cheap Roadside Service and Assistance

Worried about getting stranded with a dead battery or flat tire? You’re not alone—and the good news is, affordable roadside assistance is well within reach.

You don’t need to break the bank to ensure help is just a phone call away. Whether you’re managing a team, freelancing, or looking out for your family, the right roadside service plan can give you peace of mind without draining your wallet.

Read on for a comprehensive guide to finding budget-friendly roadside assistance that meets your needs and keeps you moving forward.

What to Look for in Roadside Assistance Plans

Perhaps you’re a freelancer that wants to make sure you’ve got the right plan for your needs. Maybe you just want to ensure your family members never end up on the side of the road without help.

Whatever the case might be, it’s important to look for roadside assistance plans that work. Ones that can help you get the most for your investment. 

First, look to see how you would find a provider nearby. Here at Alliance Direct Benefits, our customers can easily locate a service provider through our app. Once it’s taken care of, they simply upload the receipt and get reimbursed for up to $125!

Make sure you understand the details of the roadside assistance plan you select. Our Association Motor Plan (AMP) Roadside Assistance Reimbursement page has all of its details listed out for you to see. These include:

• Coverage of up to $125 per event
• Coverage for up to 2 events per anniversary year
• Available roadside assistance only 2 business days after you begin your membership

What Your Roadside Assistance Should Cover

First, make sure to have the right mindset. You want to find a cheap roadside service that can reimburse you for certain services. That way, the provider will cover the cost of the receipt up to an agreed-upon price (for us, it’s $125 per event). 

Once you understand that, you need to look into the reimbursable services that your roadside service plan offers. With our Association Motor Plan, you’ll be able to be reimbursed for things like:

• Tire Changes
• Towing
• Lockout Services
• Winching Out
• Jump Starts
• Fuel Delivery
• Installation of Parts 

But don’t let those be the end of it. For extra coverage, you can look at other benefits that the roadside assistance plan offers. 

First, do they offer travel assistance reimbursement? In other words: if your car is inoperable after a car collision 100 miles or more from home, will the provider reimburse you for other arrangements that you have to make? We cover up to $500.

The Benefits of Our Roadside Assistance Mobile App

Any provider can agree to reimburse you for the roadside assistance you require, but what are they willing to do to go the extra mile? See below for how our AMP mobile app can help you when you’re in a pinch.

GPS Locator

Doesn’t it seem like you only need ever need roadside assistance when you’re in an unfamiliar place? Our mobile roadside assistance app can alleviate this struggle with GPS location.

Using the GPS, we’ll identify where you are and point you towards all trusted service providers closest to your location. 

This can minimize the time it takes to get the assistance you need. They can help you with jump-starting your car, changing out a flat tire, or even towing the car if need be.

Quick Process for Reimbursement Requests

Some of you may have been burned by reimbursement services in the past. They may have required you to go through an exhaustive process to request a reimbursement.

Our AMP mobile app has you covered there as well! The app has the technology available so that you can submit a request with just a picture of your receipt.

In just a few clicks you can have your reimbursement request submitted, negating any need for you to fax the receipt, visit a physical location, etc.

Up-to-Date Requests

Timing is everything. You weren’t expecting to have to pay for an unforeseen event (flat tire, dead battery, etc.), so the sooner you can get reimbursed, the better.

With our AMP mobile app, you can check the status of your request at any time. It will let you know where we are in the process; of course, you can always contact us with any concerns as well!

We also allow you to add your banking information. That way, all approved reimbursements can be wired to your account, meaning you have that money available to you all the faster!
