Heavy Duty Towing
DIFFERENT TYPES OF TOW TRUCKS
No towing job is ever the same, and professional towing truck companies need to have different types of tow trucks available in order to handle the variety of tow truck calls they receive. Below are the three different types of tow trucks Lee’s Towing offers.
- Light duty tow truck. A light duty tow truck is characterized by being small, maneuverable, and able to get into tight spots. Light duty tow trucks are conventional and roll back wreckers. These typically tow small vehicles, motorcycles, pickup trucks, and conventional passenger cars. These tow trucks are the ones you see most often for roadside assistance services. Light duty tow trucks can tow weigh between 7,000 and 11,000 pounds.
- Medium duty wreckers. Medium duty tow trucks are Class B vehicles that are often deployed for recovery operations, as well as when cargo has to keep moving. You see these medium duty tow trucks often because they are used for passenger vehicles as well for greater stability purposes. Medium duty tow trucks can handle tows of up to 17,000 pounds and typically tow farm equipment, multiple vehicles, and cargo containers.
- Heavy duty tow trucks. Heavy duty tow trucks are reserved for the heaviest jobs. These big boys can handle tows greater than 17,000 pounds, which includes industrial equipment and Mack trucks that have slid down an embankment or a multi-ton load needs to be transferred. Heavy duty trucks are usually outfitted with a 25-ton capacity single or double boom lift, a 25-ton winch, and a 6-ton wheel lift.
