AWD vehicles cannot be wheel-lifted without causing drivetrain damage. When one axle is lifted and the other remains on the ground, the drivetrain rotates with the engine off, damaging internal components. Flatbed keeps all four wheels completely off the ground -- the only safe method for any AWD vehicle.
Yes. EVs must be flatbed towed with all four wheels off the ground to protect the motor and regenerative braking system. We dispatch flatbed for every EV call automatically. Tell us it is an EV when you call and we confirm the correct loading setup before dispatch.
Every AWD luxury vehicle requires flatbed -- Porsche, BMW xDrive, Mercedes 4MATIC, Audi quattro, and Jaguar AWD models all must be flatbedded. Additionally, lowered performance vehicles, vehicles with low ground clearance, and post-accident vehicles with suspension damage require flatbed regardless of drivetrain type.
Pricing is based on the job -- vehicle type, situation, and distance. The price is confirmed upfront before dispatch and does not change on arrival. There are no add-ons when we arrive.
Low-clearance and exotic vehicles require correct approach angle, controlled loading speed, and ramp extension in some cases to avoid contact with the front splitter or undercarriage. Our operators confirm the specific loading requirements before beginning. Tell us the year, make, and model when you call.
Yes. We handle flatbed transport from Bellevue to any destination in the Seattle metro area -- dealerships in Seattle, Kirkland, Redmond, or Bellevue itself, and anywhere in Washington state. Delivery confirmation is sent to your phone when the vehicle arrives.
An EV that has run out of charge on I-405 through Bellevue is a flatbed tow -- EVs cannot be push-started and the motor is not safe to tow with wheels on the ground. Tell the dispatcher you are on I-405 with your direction and nearest exit, confirm it is an EV, and we dispatch flatbed with full freeway safety protocol.
