Losing your keys in or near a national park is one of the most stressful travel emergencies. Our mobile locksmiths serve the Yellowstone and Grand Teton gateway communities — Jackson, Cody, Dubois, and the West Yellowstone area — and can often come directly to your location inside the park. No tow truck needed.
Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks see millions of visitors each year, and a small percentage of them lose or damage their car keys during their visit. This is a specialized situation — often in a remote location, often with an unfamiliar vehicle, often time-sensitive because of travel plans. Calling a locksmith instead of a tow truck can save you hundreds of dollars in tow bills — our locksmiths come to you.
We're mobile locksmiths across most of western Wyoming and can serve the major gateway communities around both parks. We also carry Starlink satellite internet, so we can pull the security credentials needed to program even the newest vehicles — no cell signal required. We stock thousands of keys, fobs, and remotes for most makes and models — and if we don't have yours on hand, we can get it overnight. If you're in Jackson, Cody, Dubois, or another park gateway town, text us your year, make, and model and we'll get you a quote fast.
Spare Me Car Keys has applied for a Commercial Use Authorization (CUA) from the National Park Service to provide automotive locksmith services within Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. A CUA is the official NPS authorization required for private businesses to operate and serve visitors inside park boundaries.
While authorization is pending, we already serve visitors throughout both parks from the major gateway communities — and our Starlink-equipped van means we can program keys at any location, even deep inside the parks where there's no cell service.

Yes. Mobile locksmiths can enter the parks to assist stranded visitors. Spare Me Car Keys has applied to be a Commercial Use Authorization (CUA) provider for both Yellowstone and Grand Teton — the official NPS authorization for businesses serving visitors within park boundaries.

No — and you definitely don't want to be. A tow from inside Yellowstone or Grand Teton to the nearest dealership can cost $500 to $1,500 or more in towing fees alone. Then, once you arrive at the dealer, you still have to pay for the key and programming on top of that — potentially $200 to $800+ more. The total bill can easily exceed $2,000. Calling a mobile locksmith instead means we come directly to your location — campground, pullout, trailhead, visitor center — and make or program a replacement key on the spot. You pay for the key only. No tow required.
Emergency priority service carries a $500 trip charge for visitors who have lost all their keys. Standard key pricing varies by vehicle year, make, and model. Text or fill out our form for a fast, no-obligation quote — there's no charge to get a price.

We cover most of western Wyoming. Text us your location and we'll confirm we can reach you.
We carry dealer-grade programming equipment and stock thousands of keys, fobs, and remotes. We service smart/proximity keys, transponder keys, flip keys, remote fobs, and push-button start systems for most domestic and foreign makes including Toyota, Honda, Subaru, Ford, GM, Jeep, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and more. Our Starlink satellite connection lets us pull security credentials for the newest vehicles even with zero cell coverage — if we stock your key, we can program it on the spot.
