Flatbed Towing in Detroit: what to expect
A flatbed keeps all four wheels off the road, which is what AWD cars, EVs, lowered and classic cars need. Around Grandmont-Rosedale, Corktown and Rivertown we see plenty of them, and the flatbed is the default for anything that should not be dragged on I-96.
Help is typically 30-45 minutes. We cover Grandmont-Rosedale, Corktown and Rivertown and the rest of Wayne County.
