Heavy Duty Towing in Greensboro, NC
Professional towing for semi-trucks, buses, RVs, and commercial vehicles. When standard tow trucks can’t handle the job, we bring the muscle.
What Is Heavy Duty Towing?
Heavy duty towing handles vehicles that exceed the capacity of standard tow trucks—typically anything over 17,000 pounds. This includes semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, dump trucks, buses, RVs, construction equipment, and large commercial vehicles that require specialized equipment and trained operators.
Whether your 18-wheeler broke down on I-40 near the PTI Airport or your construction equipment needs transport from a job site off Wendover Avenue, heavy duty towing requires rotators, air cushion recovery systems, and operators who understand the unique challenges of moving oversized loads safely.
At Towing Service Greensboro NC, we invest in the right equipment and training to handle even the most complex heavy duty recoveries throughout the Triad region.
