Understanding Flatbed Towing vs. Traditional Towing
When considering car transportation, it’s essential to understand the key differences between flatbed towing services and traditional towing methods. At Norman Towing, we offer both options to cater to various needs and situations.
Flatbed Towing: This method involves loading your vehicle onto a flatbed truck, ensuring that it is securely fastened and transported. Flatbed towing is particularly beneficial as it minimizes wear and tear during transportation, making it ideal for luxury cars, sports cars, or vehicles that require extra care.
Traditional Towing: Also known as dolly towing, this method connects your car directly to a tow truck using chains or a towing wire. The vehicle is then pulled behind the tow truck. This method is more commonly used for short distances or emergency situations.
Safety Comparison
Flatbed Towing: Offers superior safety. The car is fully secured on the flatbed, protecting it from road hazards and external impacts. This method is especially recommended for long-distance transport or vehicles with special requirements.
Traditional Towing: While effective, traditional towing exposes the vehicle to potential external impacts and road hazards. It’s a reliable option for short distances but may not be the best choice for high-value or delicate vehicles.
Innovative Towing Solutions: Mechanized Car Towing Cranes
In addition to these methods, Norman Towing also offers mechanized car towing cranes, featuring hydraulic jacks and advanced capabilities for varying road conditions and specific transportation needs.
Why Choose Flatbed Towing?
Flatbed towing is a modern, safe, and efficient method of vehicle transportation. It’s particularly advantageous for luxury and high-end vehicles, ensuring they are transported safely and securely without the risk of road damage.
