There are so many reasons why a vehicle might require recovery or roadside assistance. As each vehicle has a different kind of specifications and weight, our experts make sure that the right tow truck is sent to help our clients.
Recovering is generally divided into three parts: light-duty recovery , medium duty recovery , and heavy duty recovery . For just a single vehicle, the light recovery will work, however, when you need to tow multiple tonnes of weight, heavy recovery is what is going to work. At Stewart’s, we make sure that the right recovery truck is sent to the customers.
The light-duty recovery is used when the passenger vehicles call for roadside assistance. The light-duty recovery lifts the two front wheels off the ground and the vehicle is recovered using the back two wheels of the vehicle to get it safely off the road. In case of minor truck accidents or roadside assistance, light duty recovery is used.
The medium duty recovery happens when larger vehicles end up in accidents and weigh a lot. Medium duty recovery is used to recover weight between 4,500 kg to 11,000 kg. The medium duty recovery features flatbed rather than a two-wheeled dolly. To recover a vehicle between 4,500 kg to 11,000 kg, the recovery truck raises all four wheels of the vehicle to the flatbed and carries it to the destination.
Heavy duty recovery trucks is especially required for the vehicles with huge weights. With its high powered engines, our heavy duty recovery truck can carry weight up to 23,000kg. The state of the art recovery trucks is designed to recover tour buses, tractors, trailers, and other huge vehicles with ease. Before sending out the recovery trucks, our experts understand the specifications of the vehicle along with the weight and send the right recovery truck to get the job done on time.
The boom and winch system of our heavy duty recovery truck uses levers to lift the vehicle or any heavy duty equipment.
