Heavy-Duty Towing

Standard tow trucks are built for cars and light trucks. But when you have a full-size pickup, a box truck, an RV, or a commercial vehicle, you need heavy-duty towing. These larger vehicles require specialized equipment, stronger winches, and operators who know how to handle the extra weight and size safely.

At EZ-Move Hollister Towing, we have the heavy-duty tow trucks and trained drivers needed to move large vehicles. Whether your commercial truck broke down on the highway, your RV has mechanical issues, or your work van needs transport to the shop, we have you covered. We have been serving Hollister and the surrounding area since 2024, and we treat every job with the professionalism and care it deserves.

What Is Heavy-Duty Towing?

Heavy-duty towing is designed for vehicles that weigh more than what a standard tow truck can safely handle. This typically means anything over 10,000 pounds. At that weight, you need a tow truck with a reinforced frame, a more powerful engine, and a heavy-duty boom and winch system.

The equipment is different, and so is the approach. Heavy vehicles have different weight distribution, more complex drivetrains, and larger turning radiuses. Our drivers are trained specifically for heavy-duty work, so they know how to safely load and transport these vehicles without causing damage to the truck or to the road.

We handle everything from dual-axle pickups to small buses. If your vehicle is too big for a regular tow truck, it is probably a job for heavy-duty towing. And if you are not sure, just call us and describe what you need moved. We will let you know if we can handle it.

Types of Vehicles We Tow

Heavy-duty towing covers a wide range of vehicles. Here is what we regularly handle:

• Large pickups and work trucks: Heavy-duty Ford, Chevy, and Ram trucks with dual rear wheels.
• RVs and motorhomes: Class A, B, and C motorhomes that standard tow trucks cannot handle.
• Box trucks and delivery vehicles: Commercial vehicles used for moving, deliveries, or business operations.
• Buses and shuttles: Small to medium-sized buses and passenger vans.
• Tow trucks and service vehicles: Yes, we tow other tow trucks when they break down.
• Construction and farm equipment: Some construction vehicles and agricultural equipment, depending on size and weight.

If your vehicle does not fit in one of these categories but you think it might need heavy-duty service, just ask. We can evaluate your situation and recommend the right towing method. Sometimes a vehicle that seems like it needs heavy-duty towing can actually be handled with standard flatbed service, which might save you money.

Why You Need a Professional for Heavy-Duty Towing

Towing a large vehicle is not something you can improvise. If you try to use a tow truck that is not rated for the weight, you risk damaging both vehicles, creating a dangerous situation on the road, or even causing an accident. Heavy vehicles need heavy-duty equipment, period.

Our heavy-duty tow trucks are specifically designed for this work. They have reinforced frames that can handle the weight without bending or breaking. They have powerful engines that can pull heavy loads up hills and through traffic. And they have specialized boom systems and winches that allow us to lift and secure large vehicles safely.

But equipment is only half the equation. Our drivers are trained and certified for heavy-duty towing. They know how to calculate weight distribution, how to secure different types of vehicles, and how to navigate tight spaces with oversized loads. They also know how to work safely, because heavy-duty towing comes with serious risks if you do not know what you are doing.

When you call us for heavy-duty towing, you are getting experienced professionals who do this every day. We have the right tools, the right training, and the right attitude. We take pride in doing difficult jobs well.
