Information about towing and roadside assistance in Kemi

When your vehicle breaks down in Kemi

Cold winters, coastal weather and long distances mean that vehicle breakdowns are a real possibility around Kemi. HinausSuomi helps you quickly find out which towing company operates in Kemi so you can call them directly, without any middleman. Using the service is free and does not require registration.

Trouble can start just as easily in the city centre near the harbour area as on the roads leading out of town. Since there is currently one published towing company in Kemi, it is worth also keeping nearby options in mind in case the local company is unable to take on a job at that particular moment.

How to find help on the map

1. Open the map and share your location. This shows which company is actually closest to your situation.
2. Check the details in the towing company directory. It lists every published towing company in Finland, including those near Kemi.
3. Call the company you choose. Describe your location, the vehicle, and the nature of the problem.
4. Agree on price and timing directly. Ask whether the job could be covered through insurance.

What matters is not how many companies are listed, but whether the one you contact can respond quickly. That is why it is always worth calling and asking about the current situation rather than assuming anything about availability.

If Kemi's own towing company is busy

Since Kemi currently has one published towing company, it helps to know that assistance may also be available from neighbouring municipalities. Distances in Lapland are long, but many companies operate across municipal borders, so a nearby company outside Kemi itself can sometimes be the fastest option.

Take a look at options in Keminmaa, Kemijärvi, Kittilä, Kolari, Inari or Enontekiö. All municipalities in Lapland and their towing companies are gathered on the Lapland towing services page.

Winter conditions and common situations

Flat tyres and slippery roads

In freezing conditions, a flat tyre can happen just as easily on city streets as on the roads around Kemi. Roadside assistance can often patch or replace a tyre on the spot, allowing the journey to continue without towing.

Technical faults and starting problems

Severe cold puts extra strain on the battery and other vehicle systems. A jump start may be enough, but if the technical fault is more serious, it is safest to have the vehicle transported to a garage based on the towing company's assessment.

Other common situations

Keys locked inside, running out of fuel or refuelling with the wrong fuel, and traffic accidents are all situations worth contacting a towing company about. See lockouts, fuel delivery and accidents for more details. In any serious or dangerous situation, always call the emergency number 112 first.

Does insurance cover towing?

Many comprehensive insurance policies cover towing and roadside assistance according to their own terms, but the scope of coverage and any deductible vary between policies. Ask about this directly when you call the towing company - they can often tell you whether the job can be billed straight to your insurer.

Contacting the company directly is always worthwhile

HinausSuomi does not tow vehicles itself and does not decide who handles a job. The site simply gathers information in one place so drivers can choose who to call. By contacting a company directly, you get up-to-date information on availability, pricing and estimated arrival time, without unnecessary intermediaries.

Whether you need help in central Kemi or on the outskirts of town, start with the HinausSuomi map or browse the towing company directory to find the company that best fits your situation.
