Frequently asked questions

  • What's the safest way to tow a motorcycle?

    Flatbed tow trucks provide the safest motorcycle transport because the bike remains upright and secured with specialized equipment. This method prevents damage to the transmission, wheels, and body that can occur with traditional wheel-lift towing. At Bee-Z-Towing, we use professional loading techniques designed for all motorcycle types.
  • How does flatbed towing protect my vehicle?

    Flatbed towing keeps all four wheels off the ground, eliminating transmission strain and wheel damage during transport. Vehicles are loaded using expert techniques and secured with professional tie-downs. This method is especially important for luxury vehicles, low-clearance cars, and all-wheel-drive systems.
  • What factors affect the cost of long distance towing?

    Long distance towing prices depend on three main factors: vehicle weight, total distance traveled, and vehicle type. Heavier vehicles like trucks require more specialized equipment, while motorcycles typically cost less. At Bee-Z-Towing, we customize pricing for statewide Colorado towing to ensure transparency and fairness.
  • Can you tow classic cars without causing damage?

    Yes, classic and antique cars require specialized flatbed towing with extra care during loading and transport. Professional handlers use soft straps and precise positioning to protect vintage paint, undercarriages, and suspension systems. Bee-Z-Towing offers flexible scheduling and comprehensive insurance coverage for high-value vehicles like Ferraris and collector cars.
  • What's included in roadside assistance services?

    Roadside assistance typically includes jump starts for dead batteries, fuel delivery when you run out of gas, and lockout assistance if keys are locked inside. These services provide immediate help without requiring a full tow. Emergency response times are prioritized to get you back on the road quickly.
  • When should you use heavy duty towing?

    Heavy duty towing is necessary for commercial trucks, RVs, large equipment, and vehicles exceeding standard tow truck capacity. Standard tow trucks can't safely handle the weight or size of these vehicles. Specialized heavy-duty equipment with higher weight ratings and reinforced frames ensures safe transport without damage.
  • How fast can emergency towing arrive in Wheat Ridge?

    Emergency towing services operate 24/7 with fast response times for accidents, breakdowns, and urgent situations. Response speed depends on current traffic, weather conditions, and your exact location within Wheat Ridge and surrounding areas. At Bee-Z-Towing, we prioritize emergency calls to minimize your wait time during stressful situations.
  • What's the difference between flatbed and wheel-lift towing?

    Flatbed towing places the entire vehicle on a flat platform, while wheel-lift towing raises only the front or rear wheels off the ground. Flatbed is safer for AWD vehicles, luxury cars, motorcycles, and long distances because it prevents drivetrain damage. Wheel-lift works for short-distance towing of standard front-wheel or rear-wheel-drive cars.
  • Does Colorado mountain weather affect towing services?

    Yes, Colorado's mountain terrain and winter weather require experienced drivers and specialized equipment for safe towing. Snow, ice, and steep grades demand extra caution during vehicle loading and transport. At Bee-Z-Towing, our statewide Colorado service includes drivers trained for altitude changes and challenging road conditions throughout the region.
  • What's the biggest mistake people make when towing?

    The biggest mistake is attempting to tow all-wheel-drive or luxury vehicles with standard wheel-lift methods, which damages transmissions and drivetrains. Many drivers also fail to secure vehicles properly during transport. Professional flatbed towing with proper loading techniques prevents these costly errors and ensures safe delivery.
  • Can gooseneck trailers tow larger equipment?

    Yes, gooseneck trailers handle oversized loads that standard flatbeds cannot accommodate, including farm equipment, construction machinery, and large recreational vehicles. The gooseneck hitch design distributes weight more evenly for stable transport. Bee-Z-Towing offers gooseneck trailer availability for customers needing specialized hauling beyond typical vehicle towing.
  • How do you prepare a vehicle for long distance towing?

    Remove all personal belongings, secure loose parts, and document existing damage with photos before long distance transport. Ensure the vehicle is in neutral if possible and check that all windows and doors close properly. Professional towing companies will inspect tire pressure and attachment points before securing your vehicle for statewide Colorado travel.
