Understanding Towing Service Levels
When it comes to towing, not all vehicles are created equal. Depending on the weight and type of your vehicle, different towing methods are employed. We at Chain Gang Towing & Recovery Agency classify our services into three primary categories: light, medium, and heavy duty towing. Let’s break down the differences.
Â
Light Duty Towing
This is for vehicles weighing up to 10,000 pounds such as cars, SUVs, and light trucks. Our light duty trucks come equipped with winches, cable systems, and occasionally dollies, ensuring your vehicle is towed with utmost care.
Medium Duty Towing
Vehicles weighing between 10,000 and 26,000 pounds like RVs, box trucks, and vans fall into this category. Our medium-duty trucks feature winches, cable systems, and a boom lift – a hydraulic arm that aids in safe vehicle lifting and loading.
Heavy Duty Towing
Heavy hitters like semi-trailer trucks, construction machinery, and buses that weigh over 26,000 pounds require heavy-duty towing. Our fleet includes trucks equipped with winches, cable systems, boom lifts, and lowboy trailers which are purpose-built for transporting heavy loads.
Choosing the Right Towing Service
While the weight of your vehicle is the primary factor in selecting a tow truck, other considerations like the distance and terrain of the tow might also influence the decision. For example, for longer tows or challenging terrains, a heavy duty tow truck might be the better choice for added stability and safety, even with lighter vehicles.
