From Parked to Towed

When a car refuses to start, especially when parked in a tight spot like a garage, it can feel overwhelming for the owner. That’s exactly the situation our tow truck operator faced during a recent Canton flatbed towing job. The customer called because his vehicle wouldn’t start and was stuck in park, making it impossible to shift into neutral. He needed a helping hand.

How We Tackled the Problem

Assessment

We arrived at the customer’s residence with one truck to handle this delicate task. Since the vehicle couldn’t roll freely, we had to get creative. Dragging it out would’ve risked serious tire and transmission damage, so using flatbed towing was the safest option. 

Equipment

Our operator backed the truck carefully up to the garage. To keep things smooth, we slid skates under the tires. The skates allowed the car to glide instead of dragging the locked wheels, making sure we didn’t cause any harm. We also set up a snatch block to align the vehicle perfectly with the flatbed, guiding it straight onto the ramp without any jerks or shifts. This step was essential since the tight garage space left little room for error.

Time and Results  

The entire process took about an hour from start to finish. Every Canton flatbed towing is different, requiring us to make quick decisions on the spot. That’s where the right training, tools, and experience of our operators really pays off. We’ve seen what can go wrong if the proper care isn’t taken—scratched floors, damaged tires, or worse.

In this case, using the skates under the tires made all the difference. Dragging a locked car out of a garage could have easily left marks on the floor or caused serious damage to the transmission. With the help of the snatch block, we also made sure the car stayed aligned as it was pulled onto the flatbed. We couldn’t afford any jerky movements or sharp angles in such a tight space. It’s small adjustments like these that ensure a smooth, damage-free recovery. That’s what makes our Canton flatbed towing a service built on careful execution.

Customer Feedback and Outcome  

After we finished the job, the customer went out of their way to leave us a review on Google, calling our service prompt, professional, and courteous. It’s the kind of feedback that keeps us motivated to do our best every time. Every Canton flatbed towing job comes with its own set of challenges, but hearing that our attention to detail was noticed always feels rewarding.
