Tilt Tray Towing
Tilt tray trucks are also called fat bed or rollback trucks. Tow professionals use them to move vehicles of all sizes, from small sedans to large SUVs. Tilt tray towing is also useful for other kinds of cargo, including containers and heavy machinery.
Benefits of using a tilt tray truck
Tilt tray trucks have remarkable benefits that dwarf many other tow means. Here are four of them.
They are easy to load and unload
Tilt tray transports are easier to load and unload. Tilting the cargo bed makes the job a whole lot easier. Additionally, they come with powerful winches that can pull heavy cargo onboard. This is particularly useful if your vehicle was immobilized or the cargo is too large to move otherwise.
Ground clearance and protection
Ground clearance is critical when you’re trying to transport precious cargo like valuable containers and heavy machinery. It is also useful for cars that have sustained damage. A flatbed tow truck provides ground clearance, enough to protect your cargo from bumpy and rough terrain.
Speed
The ease of loading, coupled with ground clearance, gives you a quicker delivery time. Specialized tilt tray and towing services can save you up to one hour, compared with other towing means. These savings make all the difference if you’re pressed for time.
Extra Room for Transport
Tilt trays have lots of passenger room up-front. If your car has been in an accident, the tow professional can give you a comfortable ride to the garage or anywhere you’d like to go. A flatbed tow truck may have enough room to accommodate up to four people, so you’re covered if you had passengers in your vehicle.
How do specialized tilt tray and towing services work?
When you order tilt tray towing services, the experts will ask you the following questions:
- What do you want to move to?
- How heavy is it?
- Where’s your location and destination?
- Is there precious cargo onboard?
- Do you need any special considerations?
These questions help the towing professionals prepare for the task.
When they arrive, loading the cargo can take as little as fifteen minutes because the steps are simple and straightforward.
First, they park the truck in front of the load and tilt the bed is raised. Next, the expert will unwind the winch and attach it to the cargo. As the load is pulled onto the bed, the truck slowly reverses underneath until the load arrests fully on the truck. This process works for every kind of load, from large containers to small sedan cars.
At this point, the tow expert drives your cargo to the predetermined destination. You can also hitch a ride if you want.
How much does tilt tray transport cost?
Specialized tilt tray and towing services are slightly more expensive than regular tow services. However, tilt bed trucks offer more speed, stability, and protection than regular towing services, making them worth the cost.
The amount you'll pay depends on details like the size & weight of your cargo, the distance travelled, and any special considerations you might have.
