Keys locked inside at the grocery store, a restaurant downtown or the trailhead parking lot? Book a car lockout in the Hopper app from your phone, see the price first and watch the driver come to you.
Stay near the car so you can show ID once it's open. If a child or pet is inside on a hot Covington afternoon, call 911 first.
Downtown Covington's Columbia Street area fills up during events and the farmers market, so tell the driver which block you're on and what's nearby to save time finding your car.
What to expect
A car lockout service gets you back into your own vehicle when the keys are inside or the key fob won't open the door. Add your vehicle in the app so the driver comes prepared, and be ready to show ID that matches the vehicle once you're in. If a child or pet is locked inside a hot car, call 911 first.
A tip for Covington drivers
On I-12 between Covington and Mandeville, traffic moves fast at rush hour. Get as far off the road as you can and wait away from the car if it's safe.
