Heavy-Duty Towing

What Makes Heavy-Duty Towing Different

Regular tow trucks are built for cars, SUVs, and light trucks. They do a great job with everyday vehicles. But when you need to move something bigger, heavier, or more complex, you need heavy-duty towing. This means specialized trucks with stronger engines, reinforced frames, and higher weight capacities.

Heavy-duty towing is not just about size. It is about having the right equipment and knowing how to use it. Our Cedar Falls towing service operates heavy-duty trucks capable of towing RVs, box trucks, buses, construction equipment, and more. We have the power, the tools, and the experience to get the job done safely.

What We Can Tow

Here are some of the larger vehicles and equipment we handle:

• •RVs and Motorhomes: Class A, Class B, and Class C motorhomes, plus fifth-wheel trailers and travel trailers.
• •Commercial Vehicles: Box trucks, delivery vans, utility trucks, and other work vehicles that break down on the job.
• •Buses: School buses, shuttle buses, and tour buses that need roadside assistance or towing.
• •Construction Equipment: Skid steers, small excavators, and other heavy machinery that needs to be moved.
• •Large Trucks and Vans: Dual rear wheel pickups, cargo vans, and other oversized vehicles that exceed standard tow capacity.

If you are not sure whether your vehicle needs heavy-duty service, just call us. We will ask about the size, weight, and situation, and we will send the right truck for the job.

Equipment and Capability

Heavy-duty tow trucks come in different classes based on their towing capacity. Our trucks are rated to handle vehicles and equipment weighing up to several tons. They have powerful winches, heavy-duty chains, and specialized rigging equipment to secure large loads safely.

We also use flatbed towing for heavy-duty jobs when appropriate. Flatbeds distribute weight evenly and prevent drivetrain damage on all-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive vehicles. For more complex situations, we have winching and recovery equipment to extract vehicles from ditches, mud, or difficult terrain.

Common Heavy-Duty Situations

Heavy-duty towing is often needed in unexpected situations. An RV breaks down on the highway during a family vacation. A delivery truck has transmission problems and cannot move. A construction site needs a piece of equipment relocated. A bus has engine trouble and needs to be towed back to the depot.

These are not quick roadside fixes. Heavy-duty towing requires planning, the right equipment, and operators who understand weight distribution, load securement, and safe transport practices. Our team has the training and experience to handle these situations without cutting corners.

Response Time and Availability

When a large vehicle breaks down, it can block traffic, delay schedules, and cause major headaches. We understand the urgency. Our heavy-duty trucks are ready to respond 24/7. We prioritize these calls because we know how much is at stake.

Response times vary depending on your location and the availability of the right equipment, but we work fast to get to you. When you call, we will give you an honest estimate of when we can arrive and how long the job will take.

Pricing and Quotes

Heavy-duty towing costs more than standard towing because of the specialized equipment and higher operating costs. Pricing depends on the size and weight of your vehicle, the distance, and the complexity of the job. We provide upfront quotes over the phone so you know what to expect. No surprise fees or hidden charges.

If your situation is covered by roadside assistance or commercial vehicle insurance, we can work with your provider to streamline the process.
