How to choose a reputable towing service

                               



By considering these factors, you can make an informed decision and 

choose a reputable towing service that meets your needs 

and ensures reliable assistance when you require it most.


Research and Reviews: 

Start by researching towing services in your area. 

Look for companies with a good reputation and positive reviews from customers.

 Online review platforms, such as Google, Yelp, or Angie's List, can provide insights 

into the experiences of previous customers. 

Pay attention to feedback regarding response time, professionalism, and customer service


Licensing and Insurance: 

Ensure that the towing service you choose is licensed and insured. 

A reputable towing company should have the necessary permits and insurance 

coverage to protect you and your vehicle in case of any 

damage or mishaps during the towing process


Services Offered: 

Consider the range of services provided by the towing service. 

Apart from standard towing, they should offer services like roadside assistance, 

vehicle recovery, and transportation for different types of vehicles

 (e.g., cars, motorcycles, heavy-duty vehicles). Having a towing service that can handle various situations and vehicle types will ensure they can meet your needs effectively.


Response Time and Availability

Prompt response during emergencies is crucial when selecting a towing service. 

Inquire about their average response time and their availability, especially if you need 

assistance during weekends, holidays, or late at night. 

A reliable towing service should be accessible 24/7 and strive to reach you quickly.


Professionalism and Equipment:

 Look for a towing service that maintains a professional appearance 

and has well-maintained tow trucks and equipment. 

This indicates their commitment to providing quality service. 

Reputable companies invest in proper training for their staff and keep 

their equipment in good working condition.


We know you have choice.  Choose Us.

Motorcycle Towing/Transport

                                 

We always take great care and consideration of the following when

towing/transporting your motorcycle.

Use a Suitable Tow Vehicle: Ensure that the vehicle you'll be using to tow the motorcycle is appropriate for the task. It should have sufficient towing capacity and be equipped with a proper hitch or towing system.

Choose the Right Tow Equipment: There are different options for towing a motorcycle, depending on your specific situation. Here are a few common methods:

a. Flatbed Trailer: Using a flatbed trailer is one of the safest and most secure methods of towing a motorcycle. Ensure that the trailer is in good condition, properly attached to the tow vehicle, and has secure tie-down points to keep the motorcycle stable during transport.

b. Motorcycle Trailer: Specifically designed motorcycle trailers are available that provide a dedicated platform for transporting motorcycles. These trailers often have built-in ramps and wheel chocks to secure the bike properly.

c. Tow Bar or Motorcycle Carrier: Some tow vehicles can be equipped with tow bars or motorcycle carriers that attach to the rear of the vehicle. These carriers provide a stable platform for the motorcycle and keep it off the ground during transport.

Use High-Quality Straps: Invest in high-quality, non-elastic straps designed for securing motorcycles. Avoid using ropes or bungee cords as they can cause damage or come loose.

b. Attach the Straps: Securely attach the straps to sturdy points on the motorcycle, such as the handlebars, frame, or footpegs. Avoid attaching them to fragile or easily damaged components.

c. Balance and Position: Ensure that the motorcycle is positioned properly on the trailer or carrier to maintain balance. Distribute the weight evenly, keeping in mind the weight limits and recommendations for the specific towing equipment you are using.

Check and Double-Check: Before towing, thoroughly check all connections, straps, and attachments to ensure they are secure. Give each strap a firm tug to confirm that it is tight and won't come loose during transport.

Drive with Caution: When towing a motorcycle, drive attentively and cautiously. Accelerate and decelerate gradually, avoiding sudden movements that could cause the motorcycle to shift or tip. Keep a safe distance from other vehicles and be mindful of the additional length and weight you are towing.
