Standard Towing vs. Accident Recovery
What’s the Difference?

Standard towing generally involves transporting a vehicle that can be safely loaded and moved from its current location. Accident recovery can be more involved because a damaged vehicle may be positioned off the roadway, unable to roll normally, or require additional work before it can be transported.

McKinney’s Towing provides accident recovery in addition to standard towing and can transport accident-damaged vehicles to an auto body shop, collision repair center, or storage location.

The condition and position of the vehicle help determine what type of assistance is necessary. A vehicle involved in a minor collision may only require a standard tow, while a more complicated scene may require recovery before towing can begin. Drivers do not need to determine which category their situation falls into before calling. Explain what happened and the current condition of the vehicle so the towing team can determine the appropriate response.

Professional Towing Service
What Should I Do If My Car Needs to Be Towed After an Accident?

If your car needs to be towed after an accident, first make sure everyone involved is safe and contact emergency services when injuries, roadway hazards, or other circumstances require immediate assistance. Even if your vehicle appears drivable, collision damage can affect steering, suspension, tires, cooling systems, or other important components. If you notice leaking fluids, damaged wheels, unusual noises, or problems controlling the vehicle, avoid driving it until its condition has been properly evaluated.

Once the accident scene is secure and the vehicle is cleared for removal, a professional towing service can transport it to a repair shop, collision center, or approved storage location. Depending on the damage, specialized recovery equipment may be needed to move the vehicle without causing additional problems. You should also document the accident, contact your insurance provider when appropriate, and confirm where the vehicle will be taken. Our accident recovery and towing services help drivers throughout Central Delaware arrange transportation for damaged vehicles when they cannot be driven safely.
