Flatbed Towing
The safest way to transport your vehicle without any wheel contact with the road.
What Makes Flatbed Towing Different
When you need to move your car, truck, or SUV safely, flatbed towing is often the best choice. Unlike traditional wheel-lift towing where two wheels stay on the ground, flatbed towing lifts your entire vehicle onto a flat platform. This means no wear on your tires, no stress on your transmission, and no risk of damage to your undercarriage. For luxury cars, all-wheel-drive vehicles, and anything with low clearance, flatbed towing is the only way to go.
At Strong Hold Ankeny Towing, we use modern flatbed trucks with hydraulic lifts that gently load your vehicle without scraping or bumping. Whether your car broke down on the highway, you bought a classic car that needs transporting, or you just want the safest option for your vehicle, our flatbed service delivers. We have been serving Ankeny and the surrounding areas since 2024, and we treat every vehicle like it is our own.
When Should You Choose Flatbed Towing?
Flatbed towing is not always necessary, but in certain situations, it is the smartest move. Here is when you should ask for a flatbed instead of a standard tow.
- •All-Wheel or Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles: Towing these with wheels on the ground can damage the drivetrain.
- •Luxury or Exotic Cars: High-value vehicles need extra protection during transport.
- •Low-Clearance Vehicles: Sports cars and lowered vehicles can scrape with traditional towing methods.
- •Severe Accidents: When a vehicle is badly damaged, flatbed is the safest way to move it.
- •Long-Distance Transport: If you are moving your vehicle far, a flatbed protects it the whole way.

How Flatbed Towing Works
Our flatbed process is straightforward and designed to protect your vehicle at every step. When you call us, we send out a flatbed truck with an experienced operator who knows how to handle all types of vehicles. Once we arrive, we position the truck, lower the hydraulic bed, and carefully drive or winch your vehicle onto the platform. Everything is secured with heavy-duty straps and chains to prevent any movement during transport.
From there, we haul your vehicle wherever it needs to go. That could be a repair shop, your home, a storage facility, or anywhere else in the Ankeny area. The entire ride is smooth and controlled, with no bouncing, scraping, or dragging. When we arrive, we unload your vehicle just as carefully as we loaded it. If you needlong-distance towing, we can handle that too with the same level of care.
