Comprehensive Car Towing Solutions
Modern passenger vehicles need special towing methods that match their unique design, safety systems, and value. Today's cars have advanced technology like electronic parking brakes, anti-lock braking systems, and complex transmission controls that can break if towed the wrong way. Our certified technicians understand these systems and use the right methods to prevent expensive damage during transport.
Front-wheel-drive vehicles, which represent approximately 60% of all passenger cars sold in the United States, require specific towing approaches to prevent transmission damage. When towing FWD vehicles, the drive wheels must be lifted off the ground or the driveshaft must be disconnected to prevent forced rotation of transmission components. Our wheel-lift tow trucks are specifically designed to handle FWD vehicles safely and efficiently.
Rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive cars present different challenges and opportunities for safe towing. RWD vehicles can often be towed from the front with the rear wheels rolling freely, while AWD vehicles typically require flatbed transport to prevent drivetrain damage. Our flatbed towing service is available for all vehicle types that require complete lifting for safe transport.
Electric and hybrid vehicles require special considerations due to their high-voltage electrical systems and unique drivetrain configurations. These vehicles often have specific towing points and procedures outlined by manufacturers to prevent damage to battery systems and electric motors. Our technicians receive ongoing training on hybrid and electric vehicle towing procedures to ensure safe handling of these increasingly common technologies.
Luxury and performance cars often require enhanced protection during transport due to their specialized suspension systems, low ground clearance, and expensive body components. Carbon fiber body panels, custom paint finishes, and performance modifications all require careful handling during towing operations. We provide protective padding and use specialized loading techniques to prevent cosmetic damage to high-value vehicles.
Car Towing Equipment and Safety
Our car towing fleet includes multiple truck types to handle different situations and vehicle requirements efficiently. Wheel-lift tow trucks provide quick, economical towing for most passenger vehicles, while flatbed trucks offer maximum protection for luxury cars, damaged vehicles, and long-distance transport. Each truck is equipped with professional-grade securing equipment including adjustable straps, wheel chocks, and protective padding.
Safety protocols for car towing extend beyond just securing the vehicle properly. Our drivers conduct pre-tow inspections to document existing damage, check for fluid leaks, and identify any modifications or accessories that might affect towing procedures. We also verify insurance coverage and obtain necessary authorization before beginning towing operations to protect both the vehicle owner and our company from liability issues.
Environmental factors significantly impact car towing operations, particularly in Texas where weather conditions can change rapidly. High winds affect vehicle stability during transport, while extreme heat can cause tire pressure changes and fluid expansion. Our drivers monitor weather conditions continuously and adjust their driving techniques accordingly to ensure safe transport regardless of environmental challenges.
