The BQE between the Brooklyn Bridge and the Verrazzano has some of the narrowest shoulders in the city. Pulling onto one is uncomfortable but possible; getting out and walking around your vehicle is dangerous.

Standard $249 / hour rate. We stage trucks at multiple points along the BQE, typical arrival 15–30 minutes.
