Frequently Asked Questions
Can a car be towed if it’s nose-in parked?
Yes, but nose-in parked cars can be more difficult to tow, especially in tight or sloped spaces. Flatbeds with winches can often load them in reverse, while wheel-lift trucks may need additional equipment like dollies. Let the towing service know in advance if your vehicle is parked front-in or in an enclosed spot. Proper planning ensures they bring the right tools and avoid damage. In some cases, manual repositioning may be required before towing begins.
Can vehicles with electronic brakes be towed?
Vehicles with electronic or electric parking brakes can still be towed, but they may require special handling. If the battery is flat, the brakes might remain engaged. Tow operators may need to use a jumper pack or specific vehicle override procedures to disengage the system. If this isn’t possible, a flatbed tow is often the safest method. Always tell the dispatcher if your vehicle has electric parking brakes so they’re prepared with the right tools and knowledge.
Do tow trucks work during public holidays?
Yes, many tow truck companies operate during public holidays, especially those that offer 24/7 emergency towing and roadside assistance. However, service may be limited depending on staffing, and costs can be higher due to holiday surcharges. If you're travelling during a holiday, it's good to save the number of a few local tow services in case of emergencies. Availability can vary by region, so always check before relying on a single provider on holiday weekends.
