When flatbed towing may make sense
Flatbed service is commonly requested for AWD and 4WD vehicles, low-clearance cars, damaged vehicles, cars with wheel or suspension problems, and vehicles that should be transported with all four wheels off the road.
Tell us how the vehicle sits
Loading conditions matter. Let us know if the vehicle has locked wheels, damaged steering or suspension, very low ground clearance, missing wheels, collision damage, or limited access around it. A vehicle in a tight parking structure can require different planning than one in an open lot.
- AWD or 4WD drivetrain information.
- Low ground clearance or modified suspension.
- Whether the vehicle rolls and steers.
- Wheel, tire, suspension, or body damage.
- Pickup and destination access.
For collision situations, see accident towing. For general breakdowns, our 24-hour towing service covers the broader towing need.
QUESTIONS
What people usually ask.
Is flatbed towing suitable for AWD vehicles?
Flatbed towing is often requested for AWD and 4WD vehicles because all four wheels can remain off the road during transport.
Can a flatbed handle a vehicle that does not roll?
Non-rolling or damaged vehicles may require additional loading considerations. Tell us exactly what the vehicle can and cannot do when you call.
What about low-clearance cars?
Mention low ground clearance or modifications so loading access and approach can be considered before service.
