RGV MOBILE TRUCK & TRAILER REPAIR ROADSIDE SERVICE

Although there are many different kinds of trailer trucks, fitted with all sorts of rigs, all use one of two basic types of Trailer, Flatbed Trailer or dolly trailer.
With flatbed trailer the entire vehicle is hoisted onto the trailer truck, all of the trailered vehicle’s wheels then rest on one flat surface. In dolly trailer two of the trailered vehicle’s wheels remain in contact with the road.

Advantages of Flatbed Trailer

Flatbed trailer is considered safer, it also allows quicker recovery and overall more efficient trailer operations.
With Flatbed Trailer the disabled vehicle is pulled onto the trailer truck’s flatbed using an electric winch. Although the forces exerted are substantial, when this is done expertly no mishaps can occur. With Flatbed Trailer there is less risk of damage to the trailered vehicle.
Once the vehicle is securely fastened to the RGV Mobile Truck And Trailer Roadside Repair Service’s flatbed handling the trailer truck is relatively easy (compared to dolly trailer), this makes negotiating traffic simpler and allows arriving at the designated destination quicker.

There are also circumstances where flatbed trailer is the only option. Such is the case with vehicles which have been severely damaged in crashes or vehicles with broken axles. Motorcycles can only be trailered flatbed. When expensive or delicate vehicles are involved, vintage cars for example, flatbed trailer has a definite advantage.

Flatbed trailer Done Right

Flatbed trailer, as any other trailer, must be carried out expertly. Unprofessional handling of trailer trucks is just plain dangerous.
