Our Process for Flatbed Tow Truck Services in Long Island
We ensure that the car’s weight distribution is kept even throughout the transportation, so that it doesn’t go beyond the truck’s capacity. It’s a safe, efficient, and damage-free towing method.
You Call Us
First things first, call us and brief us about your situation, whether your car broke down, you ran out of fuel or something else happened. Share your location with us as well.
Wait For Our Tow Truck
Please wait in a safe area before we arrive. It may take us 30-60 minutes depending on your location. Once we arrive, our truck is positioned near the vehicle’s location.
Loading the Vehicle
The 'flatbed' is lowered to the ground, creating a ramp for the vehicle. The vehicle is either driven (if possible) into the flatbed or pulled onto the flatbed with a winch.
Securing the Vehicle
The hydraulic flatbed is brought back in a horizontal position, after which the vehicle is secured using straps or chains. This keeps the vehicle from moving during transit.
Towing the Vehicle
Next, we simply tow the car, bike or truck to the destination, whether it’s your home, a nearby auto repair shop, a dealership or any other place. And that’s all!

Our Flatbed Tow Trucks Can Handle a Variety of Vehicles
Flatbed towing is a versatile technique, suitable for a range of vehicles. The main reason behind its popularity is the fact that it’s a risk-free and damage-free method unlike outdated methods such as hook-and-chain towing. Since none of the wheels are in contact with the ground, there’s almost zero risk of damage to the wheels, engine, body, and other components of the vehicle.
Here are the vehicle types that are often flatbed towed:
Compact Cars & Sub Compact Cars
SUVs (i.e., Ford Explorer, Honda CR-V, etc.)
Trucks and Vans
Motorbikes
Commercial Vehicles
All Wheel Drive (AWD) Vehicles
Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Vehicles
Luxury and Vintage Cars
Passenger Cars
Delivery Trucks

Applications of flatbed towing.
What Kind of Situations or Car Problems Require Flatbed Towing?
Transporting AWD or 4WD Cars
It’s important for AWD and 4WD car wheels to be kept off the ground while towing. This is to prevent the drivetrain and transmission from getting damaged.
Getting Into an Accident
After an accident, your car may already be heavily damaged and in an undriveable condition. Flatbed towing ensures the car is transported without added damage.
Transporting Low-Clearance Cars
Vehicles with low ground clearance may get damaged if they are dragged with other methods like wheel-lift towing. Flatbed towing eliminates that risk.
Long-distance Transport
Need to transport a commercial vehicle to another city or borough? Flatbed towing ensures the vehicle doesn’t go through any mechanical stress during transport.
Moving Heavy Equipment
Flatbed towing is not just suitable for cars, but also small machinery and heavy cargo. The item being towed is secured properly to protect it throughout the journey.
Vehicles with Transmission Issues
Methods like wheel-lift towing or hook-and-chain may not be suitable for cars with transmission failures. Flatbed towing is the best technique in such cases.
Why choose flatbed towing?
Benefits of Flatbed Towing Over Other Towing Techniques
Since there’s zero road contact, the car’s mechanical components are kept safe.
Flatbed car towing is suitable for both short distances and long distances.
The vehicle is secured and less likely to move on a flatbed, keeping it protected.
No extra mileage is added in the case of a classic, vintage or luxury vehicle.
Works for a variety of vehicle types, whether they’re damaged or drivable.
