SUV & Pickup Towing in Houston

SUV and pickup towing in Houston requires equipment and techniques that differ from standard passenger car tows. These vehicles are heavier, longer, and often sit higher off the ground, demanding flatbed trailers with higher weight capacities and wheel-lift systems designed for larger tires and frames. When we respond to a call involving an SUV or pickup—whether it’s a full-size Ford F-250, a Toyota 4Runner, or a lifted Ram 1500—we follow a careful process: first, we assess the vehicle’s condition and any underbody damage, then secure it with chains or straps rated for the extra weight, and use a tilt-bed or wheel-lift setup to avoid dragging bumpers or scraping the frame. In Houston’s varied terrain—from wide suburban streets in areas like Addicks to tighter downtown alleys near Afton Oaks—the maneuverability of our trucks matters just as much as the towing capacity.

Why does SUV and pickup towing matter for Houston property owners? Many residents drive large vehicles for work or recreation—contractors flock to construction sites near the Energy Corridor, weekend boaters head toward Lake Houston, and families use SUVs for daily commutes across the city. A breakdown in a heavy vehicle can block driveways, narrow residential streets, or busy intersections like those near Airline Drive. Prompt, correct towing reduces the risk of secondary collisions and ensures the vehicle is moved without causing damage to the owner’s property or the surrounding infrastructure. Our operators are trained to handle the specific challenges of larger vehicles, including handling recovery from muddy lots after Houston rainstorms and navigating low-clearance parking garages that many pickups struggle to exit.

What to Expect

When you request SUV or pickup towing, expect a flatbed or wheel-lift unit that can handle vehicles up to 10,000 pounds gross vehicle weight. We will first check the vehicle’s clearance and any cargo load—many pickups carry heavy equipment in the bed, which must be secured or removed if necessary. The tow operator will explain the winching and lift points, especially for all-wheel-drive SUVs that require cautious handling to avoid drivetrain damage. We do not lift by the bumper or the suspension; instead, we use frame-mounted attachments. The entire process, from arrival to hook-up, typically takes 15 to 30 minutes, depending on vehicle size and location. We then transport your SUV or pickup to your chosen shop, home, or lot within the Houston area.
