Finding the Right Towing Company for Roadside Assistance and Tire Problems

A towing company needs to provide you with the fast services needed for towing and also the extra help required like emergency service when you get a flat tire, dead battery, car crash, etc. These services provided are nice, but the most important consideration during towing is safety. Security for your car and for you and your family.

When towing your car, it is necessary to use safety chains to ensure that your car remains attached to the tow truck. It ensures the safety of the car and also keeps it legal. When using safety chains, be sure to check that the chains are crossed under the trailer tongue, this ensures that even if the trailer were to come loose from the hitch, it would not separate from the tow truck. We make sure your tow chains are slack enough to allow you to take turns towing, but not too slack that they hang off the ground and cause more problems. When you are towing your vehicle, you need to make sure that the cars behind you know when you are going to brake or turn. We check if the trailer has brake lights, side lights, and also taillights that work in conjunction with the tow truck. Each trailer has a wire harness that connects the trailer wiring to the tow truck wiring to obtain these signals.

Just as safety is an important issue, we also understand that the customer needs a well-educated driver to get to the scene, whether it is a tow hookup, roadside service call, lockout, tire change or flat tire, out of fuel, car in a ditch, dead battery, or vehicle diagnostics, we are there to serve your needs. Make sure your towing company also offers flatbed towing, local or long haul towing, light and medium duty towing, and during the winter months, snow removal, snow removal for (commercial and residential accounts) as well. Make sure the staff is well trained, professional and on duty 24/7 for any towing service, call for service, emergency roadside service, accident removal or parking towing needs.

Keep your trailer phone numbers handy, in case of an emergency, breakdown, or need for regular service. We hope that emergency services are never necessary and that you can avoid a lot of inconvenience and bad experiences if you follow some basic guidelines, such as preventive maintenance of your vehicle, at least with monthly or weekly checkups. Look at the tires, headlights, taillights, turn signal, check interior lights, have a flashlight or two handy with fresh batteries and a first aid kit, as well as a few more items in the trunk. A few essential tools would help, a quart of oil, antifreeze, a safety light bar for nighttime emergencies, a bag of kitty litter to help you get out of a snowdrift or slippery driveway.

Tires are a very, very important factor to consider, whether it’s a hot day in the country or a cold day in winter. Not only is it important to have good tread on your tires, it’s also important to have the right tires for the vehicle and check your spare tires at least once a month to make sure the rubber on the tire isn’t brittle or weakened. The largest number of calls we receive come from under-inflated or over-inflated tires, as well as badly worn tires, and sometimes the wrong tires were installed on the vehicle. People don’t usually check their spare tire and find it flat or old.

Take the time to do checkups on your car, just like you should on your body to keep you running every day; drink plenty of water and eat a nutritious meal. Also check your house to make sure the roof, gutters, basement, etc. are well maintained.

A well-maintained vehicle can go a long way, and doing those checks can save you a lot of money and time, as well as most of the traumatic travel experiences of our lives.
