It's quite possible that your vehicle can break down at any time. In fact, it almost always happens at the wrong place and the wrong time. Life is full of surprises and events like a flat tire or engine failure never seem to be expected. When your car breaks down, you will need a tow truck to tow your broken down vehicle. Luckily, you have Flatbed Towing on your side. We'll send you the first available tow truck that will get you going to where you need to be or tow your vehicle to a garage or repair facility of your choice.

Professional Towing

Many people don't understand that towing a vehicle requires special skills and knowledge. It's not just as simple as hook and go. Different manufacturers have specific instructions on how that vehicle needs to get towed. This is where professional and experienced tow truck operators come for your assistance and do the job right, the first time, without any damage to your vehicle and in the quickest possible time.

Flat Tires are an Inconvenience

Let's say you got a flat tire! What do you do? Many modern vehicles are not equipped with spare tires. Some vehicles have special run-flat tires installed which will allow you to get to your destination safely but is usually limited to a 50-100 km range. After driving on a run-flat tire, you will need to have that tire replaced. Alternatively, you can choose to call a local towing service and have your vehicle towed to a tire shop to have that tire patched up. Runflat tires can be expensive but a tow can cost only a fraction of that cost. A reasonable solution to a flat tire situation would be to go to your favourite search engine and search for a tow truck near me. This will bring up a lot of listings, but which company do you choose?

The safest possible way to have your vehicle towed is with all wheels off the ground. This means the transportation of choice should be a flatbed tow truck. The vehicle will rest securely on a flatbed platform away from the elements of the road and with the wheels of your car touching nothing but the flatbed of the tow truck.

Stuck in the Snow or Dirt?

If you ever find yourself in the middle of a snow storm or on rough terrain and your vehicle gets stuck, try not to force or spin your tires so much that you may damage the tires or dig yourself deeper into the ground. In fact, if you find yourself on rough snow, first try to turn off traction control and see if this helps your vehicle plow through the snow. If this doesn't work, it's always a good idea to have a snow shovel in your vehicle as a part of your winter emergency kit. A shovel can often help remove deep snow around your wheels and get you going. If nothing helps and you are hopelessly stuck, don't panic. Call a tow truck for a winching service. While waiting to get rescued, make sure you are visible to traffic around you. This means you need to turn on your hazard lights or four-way flashers. If you have at least a quarter tank of gas in your car, keep the car running to keep you warm in the winter, but make sure that your vehicle's exhaust pipe is free from snow and any obstructions to prevent nauseous gasses from entering the passenger compartment of your car.

Battery Boost Service

Have you ever been in a situation when you're late for work and you come to your vehicle only to find out that you are going to be even later because of a dead battery? Trust us, it happens every day. Batteries become less reliable with age and even more so with lower temperatures that we experience in the winters. If your battery is aging, you will begin to notice that your car will have difficulty starting after sitting overnight. If your engine starter sounds lazy or slow, this could be a good sign of a failing battery. It might be a good time to look into a replacement battery. Sometimes a battery will quit without such a warning. In this case you will need a battery boost to get the car going again. Once started, your car will run off the power generated by the alternator of the vehicle. You may safely get a mechanic shop to have the battery replaced. You may also look into second-hand battery retailers that sell used batteries in Toronto.
