Who Calls for Heavy Duty Towing in Atlanta?
When a big vehicle stops, it rarely stops somewhere convenient. A semi loses power on the I-285 shoulder near the airport. A loaded box truck won't start at a delivery stop. A bus breaks down with passengers on board. A trailer needs to move after a problem with the truck that was pulling it.
The people who call us are usually drivers standing next to the vehicle, dispatchers trying to get a truck moving again, and business owners who need a box truck taken to their shop. Whoever you are, the job starts the same way: you tell us exactly what the vehicle is and where it sits, and we confirm the right truck before we send anything.
Call (470) 905-2410Which Vehicles Need a Heavy Duty Tow Truck?
Our heavy duty towing covers four kinds of vehicles. Call with the details and we'll confirm the job.
Semi trucks
Semi truck towing in Atlanta, with or without the trailer attached. Tell us if the trailer is hooked up and whether it's loaded or empty.
Trailers
A trailer that needs to be moved on its own, for example after its truck broke down. Describe the trailer type and whether it's loaded.
Buses
Bus towing in Atlanta for buses that won't start or can't continue safely. Make sure all passengers are off and waiting in a safe place.
Box trucks
Larger box trucks that need a heavy duty tow. Give us the make and box length. Smaller ones may fit our medium duty towing in Atlanta.
How Should You Stay Safe While You Wait?
A stopped truck or bus on a busy interstate is a serious hazard for everyone, including you. Here is what to do while help is on the way:
- Get the vehicle as far onto the shoulder or off the road as you safely can, and turn on the hazard lights.
- Set out your reflective warning triangles behind the vehicle if you can do it without stepping into traffic.
- Wait away from the vehicle and the travel lanes, behind a barrier if possible. On a bus, guide passengers to a safe spot off the road.
- Call 911 if anyone is hurt, if the vehicle is blocking lanes, or if there's smoke, fire or a leak.
If the truck slid off the pavement into a ditch or soft ground, tell us. Our winch-out service in Atlanta explains how a stuck vehicle is pulled back onto solid ground. If there was a collision, read our accident towing in Atlanta page for the first steps after a crash.
What Makes a Heavy Duty Tow Go Smoothly?
The more we know up front, the better we can plan. Have the vehicle type, make and model ready, plus whether it's loaded, what it's carrying, and whether the problem is mechanical, electrical, a flat or damage. Give us your exact spot, such as the interstate, the direction you were heading and the nearest exit, and the address of the truck shop or yard where it needs to go. If someone other than the driver has to approve the tow, have their name and number handy too.
