Flatbed Towing Abbotsford
The safest way to transport any vehicle — zero contact with the road, zero added wear on your car.
Why Choose Flatbed Towing?
When your vehicle needs to be moved, flatbed towing is the safest option available. Instead of pulling your car with two wheels on the ground, a flatbed tow truck loads your entire vehicle onto a flat, hydraulic deck and lifts it completely off the road. That means no tire wear, no drivetrain strain, and no risk of damage from road debris or uneven pavement during transport.
At Fraser Valley Towing Co., our flatbed trucks are available 24/7 across Abbotsford and the surrounding Fraser Valley. Whether you’re dealing with a breakdown, a low-clearance vehicle, an all-wheel-drive car, or a vehicle that simply shouldn’t be towed with its wheels on the ground, our flatbed service is built for the job.
When Is Flatbed Towing the Right Choice?
Flatbed towing is the recommended — and sometimes the only safe — option in several common situations:
- All-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive vehicles, which can suffer drivetrain damage if towed with wheels on the ground
- Low-clearance or lowered vehicles, including sports cars, which risk scraping on standard tow equipment
- Vehicles with transmission or driveline damage, where the wheels can’t safely rotate
- Vehicles with flat tires on more than one wheel, or missing wheels entirely
- Long-distance tows, where reduced wear and tear matters most
- Classic, luxury, or high-value vehicles, where minimizing any risk of cosmetic or mechanical damage is a priority
- Motorcycles and small equipment, which need to be fully secured rather than dragged
If you’re not sure whether your situation calls for a flatbed, call us at (778) 513-2899 and describe your vehicle and issue — our dispatcher can recommend the right equipment before a truck is ever sent out.

Flatbed Towing FAQs
Is flatbed towing more expensive than a regular tow? Flatbed towing can cost slightly more than a standard wheel-lift tow due to the equipment involved, but it’s often the safest — and sometimes the only appropriate — option for certain vehicles. We’ll always give you an upfront quote before dispatch.
Can a flatbed tow an all-wheel-drive vehicle? Yes — in fact, flatbed towing is the recommended method for AWD and 4WD vehicles, since it avoids the drivetrain damage that can happen when only two wheels are towed on the ground.
Do you offer flatbed towing for motorcycles? Yes, our flatbed trucks can safely secure and transport motorcycles in addition to cars, trucks, and SUVs.
How long does a flatbed tow take? Response time depends on your location and current call volume, but our trucks are positioned throughout Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley for fast dispatch.
Can you flatbed tow a vehicle after an accident? Yes — flatbed towing is often preferred after a collision, since it avoids putting any additional strain on a potentially damaged vehicle. See our Accident & Collision Towing page for more details.
