Frequently Asked Questions
Can I tow a car with a trailer?
Yes, you can tow a car using a trailer, particularly a flatbed or car carrier trailer designed for vehicle transport. This is a safe method when done correctly. The towing vehicle must be rated to handle the combined weight, and you must secure the car with straps or chains. Make sure brakes and lights on the trailer are working. It’s essential to follow all local road rules regarding towing to ensure safety for both you and others.
What are vehicle skates in towing?
Vehicle skates are small, wheeled platforms used to move a car when its wheels are locked, missing or immobile. Tow operators place them under the tyres, allowing the car to be rolled onto a flatbed or repositioned in tight spots. They’re especially useful in impound yards, multi-level car parks or for vehicles with seized brakes. Skates reduce friction and help prevent further damage during loading, offering a safe alternative when traditional towing isn’t possible.
Can towing damage my tyres or suspension?
When done properly by a licensed operator, towing should not damage your tyres or suspension. However, incorrect techniques — like dragging a vehicle or using an inappropriate truck — can put strain on wheels, axles and suspension components. Flatbed towing is generally the safest for minimising this risk. If you have concerns, inspect your vehicle after the tow and take note of any changes. Always let the towing company know if your vehicle has pre-existing issues.
