Towing services are an important companion industry to the automotive industry. It also plays an important role in the infrastructure and safety of our communities. According to AAA, over 235,000 vehicles are towed every year due to brake system failure. Without reliable towing services in our communities, vehicles would litter the roadways and make travel unsafe. Let’s look at a few more reasons why you should support local towing services.

Quick Accident Removal

If you’ve been in an accident and your vehicle can’t be driven home, it’s imperative that you have the vehicle removed from the accident site as quickly as possible. Most vehicles are blocking roadways following an accident and the only way for normal traffic patterns to resume is if the vehicles are removed. The sooner your vehicle is removed from the accident, the more quickly you can have it evaluated for insurance purposes as well.

24/7 Service

Another reason you should support local towing services is that most local towing companies provide 24/7 service. This means that no matter what time of the day or week you find yourself stranded, you can expect the help of a tow truck. This is a huge benefit to residents of an area. This means that you won’t be unsafely stranded in the middle of the night with no way to remove your vehicle from the roadway.

Fast Response Times

Local towing services provide quick response times to ensure that your vehicle is not left in or near a roadway where it might block traffic. Blocking traffic is unsafe for both other vehicles and yours as well. A local service can get to you more quickly since they will be located nearby.

Local Economy Support

Towing services are often an important part of a local economy. If you call a towing service, they may be able to suggest a local mechanic who will be able to help you with the damage to your vehicle. You can do your part to support small businesses by using local towing services.
