Heavy towing involves the transportation of large vehicles such as trucks, buses and heavy machinery, which differ significantly from standard vehicles in terms of weight, size and requirements for secure towing. Heavy towing services utilise specialised equipment and vehicles, such as tow trucks with greater towing capacity and reinforced recovery mechanisms. This ensures that larger vehicles are transported safely and securely, minimising the risk of damage during the recovery process. Our team is highly skilled in handling these heavy vehicles, ensuring that every operation meets strict safety standards.

Yes, heavy towing can definitely be performed on highways and busy roads. Our operations team is well-versed in managing the complexities that come with busy environments. We employ traffic management strategies to ensure the safety of all road users and our recovery team. This includes using warning signs, signals and, where necessary, traffic diversions to minimise disruption and enhance safety during the recovery process. Whether it’s a breakdown or an accident, our heavy vehicle towing services can efficiently handle situations on busy thoroughfares.

Weather conditions play a significant role in how heavy towing operations are conducted. Adverse weather, such as heavy rain, fog or extreme heat, can impact the safety and timing of recovery and towing processes. Our team is trained to adapt to these conditions, employing different strategies and equipment to handle the specific challenges the weather poses. For instance, visibility equipment and extra safety measures are important in heavy rain or fog. At the same time, extreme heat might require us to prevent machinery overheating and ensure the well-being of our crew and the vehicles involved. Our priority is to conduct heavy duty towing operations safely, regardless of the weather conditions.
