Industry Proven Flatbed Tow Trucks
At Express Towing, we are known for professional flatbed towing services for a wide range of vehicle types and emergency situations. No job is too big or too small even if you’re stranded with a luxury vehicle in Alpharetta, transporting a classic car from Duluth, or recovering an accident-damaged SUV in Lawrenceville. Our modern fleet of flatbed tow trucks ensures safe, damage-free towing.
Flatbed towing is industry recognized as the gold standard for car transporting due to its safety, flexibility, and efficiency. In comparison to wheel-lift towing, flatbed tow trucks lift and carry the entire vehicle off the ground — which drastically protects transmission, tires, and undercarriages from damage.
When Is Flatbed Towing the Best Choice?
Flatbed tow trucks are great at most of the towing scenarios including:
- Luxury & Performance Vehicles: Protects low-clearance cars like Porsche, Lamborghini or custom body cars with low profile bumpers from scratches, dings, or undercarriage damage. For such cases we use Race Ramps to make loading/unloading smooth and damage-free.
- Classic & Collector Cars: Minimize vibration, exposure, and towing-related wear during transportation. High value cars require careful towing with maximum protection and we are on it.
- AWD Vehicles: Prevent drivetrain strain by lifting all wheels off the ground.
- Accident Recovery: Safely tow damaged or undrivable cars after a collision. In this case flatbed provides better public and road safety while preventing loss of loose and sharp parts and oil leakage on the road during towing.
- Long-Distance: Reduce mechanical wear and protect your investment over longer hauls.
- Flat Tires: when all or majority of the tires are flat – flatbed towing is the best solution.
- Heavy Duty Equipment Towing: safely and efficiently tow construction machinery, fork lifts, bobcats, generators and other oversized equipment.

Flatbed Loading & Unloading: What Makes It Better?
One of the absolute benefits of flatbed towing is the ability to accommodate disabled vehicles with minimal contact. Our 21ft beds and hydraulic winches make it possible to load:
- Non-running vehicles
- Low-profile sports cars
- Heavily damaged accident vehicles
What’s most important is that our driver’s team is highly experienced and trained to position and secure cars using professional tools like soft straps, chains and wheel chocks to prevent any shifting during transport.
