Professional flatbed towing from 24/7 Towing Service, available 24/7.
Call (619) 374-9938Flatbed towing uses a hydraulically operated platform that tilts down to ground level, allowing your vehicle to be driven or winched directly onto the bed. Once secured with chains and straps at multiple tie-down points, the entire vehicle is transported without any wheels touching the road surface. This method eliminates the stress points created by traditional wheel-lift or dolly systems, which can damage suspension components, undercarriage panels, or drivetrain elements.
The process starts with positioning our flatbed truck to create the safest loading angle, whether that's in a tight parking garage downtown or on the shoulder of the 163. Our operators use steel-braided winch cables rated for loads far exceeding your vehicle's weight, pulling it slowly onto the deck while monitoring for any clearance issues. Every tie-down point is checked twice — once during loading and again before we roll.
Flatbed service becomes essential when your vehicle sits low to the ground, has sustained front or rear-end damage, or features aftermarket modifications that change its towing profile. All-wheel-drive vehicles require flatbed transport to prevent transmission damage that occurs when some wheels roll while others are lifted. The same applies to vehicles with locked differentials or damaged wheels that won't rotate freely.
Our flatbed trucks carry adjustable ramps, multiple chain grades for different vehicle weights, and soft straps for delicate surfaces. The hydraulic deck can handle everything from a dropped Honda Civic in Hillcrest to a lifted pickup that won't clear a standard garage door. When your vehicle needs to arrive exactly as it left, flatbed towing removes the variables that other methods introduce.
AWD and 4WD systems can suffer expensive transmission damage when towed with wheels on the ground — our flatbed prevents drivetrain binding entirely.
Vehicles with bent frames, damaged suspension, or collision damage need flatbed transport to prevent additional structural harm during towing.
High-end vehicles with carbon fiber splitters, custom bodywork, or low ground clearance require flatbed service to avoid costly scrapes and damage.
Cars with seized engines, locked brakes, or flat tires that won't roll safely need flatbed loading to avoid dragging damage to wheels and undercarriage.
Two-wheeled vehicles and ATVs require our specialized flatbed with motorcycle-specific tie-down points and loading ramps for secure transport.
