Collision Towing in Houston, TX

We run flatbeds, and that is a deliberate choice rather than a marketing line.

Why flatbed matters

A hook-and-chain or wheel-lift tow leaves two wheels turning on the pavement the whole way. On an all-wheel-drive vehicle that can damage the drivetrain. On a car that has just been wrecked, with a bent control arm or a cracked mount nobody has inspected yet, dragging it down the freeway can turn a repairable vehicle into a total loss. On anything lowered, the approach angle alone will take the front bumper off.

A flatbed picks the whole car up. Nothing rotates, nothing drags, and the damage you arrive with is the damage you left with.

Where we come

Accident scenes, residential breakdowns, and roadside calls across Houston. Sedans, SUVs, vans, and trucks. Tell dispatch whether the vehicle rolls and steers, because that decides the equipment.

The thing to know at the scene

Whoever shows up first will ask where the car is going, and if you have no answer it goes to whichever lot suits them, which usually charges storage by the day and takes time to release. You are entitled to name the destination. Say JJ Auto Body, 340 Erin St, or call (713) 349-2886 and we will arrange it.

Straight into the process

Once it is here we photograph the condition, coordinate with your insurance carrier directly so towing is one less item on your list, and start the estimate. The claim moves while you deal with everything else a wreck brings.
