FAQ

Tow Truck Service
Southampton FAQ

The most common questions about tow truck service in Southampton. If yours isn't here, call us directly.

How much does a tow truck cost in Southampton?
Price depends on distance, vehicle type, and equipment needed. Fixed quote given on the call before dispatch.
Can you tow a car with no wheels?
Yes — our flatbed trucks winch vehicles on with no need for the wheels to roll.
Can you tow a low or sports car safely in Southampton?
Yes. Our flatbed and low-loader trucks use extended ramps and low approach angles specifically for splitters and low-clearance vehicles.
What's the difference between flatbed and spec lift?
Flatbed lifts the whole vehicle off the ground — safest for low, classic, or prestige cars. Spec lift raises only the front or rear wheels — faster and cheaper for standard cars moving short distances.
Do you tow motorbikes?
Yes, using dedicated bike-loading flatbed equipment with soft straps.
How long does a tow take in Southampton?
Depends on traffic and distance — we give an accurate ETA on the call, typically 18-40 minutes for local jobs.
Do you cover Nursling Industrial Estate and the wider docks logistics area?
Yes, including Nursling, Redbridge, and the wider Southampton Docks corridor.
