How much does a winch-out cost in San Diego?

A simple pull off a soft shoulder is the cheapest version. A buried-in-sand recovery, a steep embankment, or an over-the-edge pull needs more rigging and more time, so those get quoted on site once the driver sees the situation. Ask dispatch for the number before you agree to the work.

I'm stuck in the sand - what should I do until you arrive?

Stop spinning the tires. Every extra second of wheelspin digs you deeper and packs sand around the undercarriage, which makes the recovery longer and harder. Turn the wheels straight, take your foot off the gas, and wait. If you're on a beach with an incoming tide, get clear of the vehicle and say so when you call so the run gets prioritized.
