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 setup before dispatch.
AWD crossovers driven by Seattle commuters living in Shoreline, post-accident vehicles from Aurora Ave and I-5 with suspension damage, and EVs in the newer residential developments along 15th Avenue NE and in the Echo Lake area are the most common flatbed call types in Shoreline.

Post-accident vehicles on Aurora Ave require correct assessment of the damage condition before loading. Vehicles with front-end collision damage, bent suspension, or deployed airbags are loaded on flatbed with the approach angle and winch use planned based on the specific damage profile. Tell the dispatcher the damage condition when you call.
Yes. Apartment complex parking lots throughout Shoreline are regular flatbed towing call locations. Our drivers navigate residential parking configurations and handle the tight-space loading situations that apartment lots present.
