Frequently Asked Questions

There are a few situations that always require towing services. If you’ve been in a car accident, for example, your car will need to be towed away from the scene. Similarly, if your car has broken down and is unable to move, you’ll need to call a tow truck. Towing services are also necessary if you’re illegally parked and are about to be towed away by the police.

Of course, there are other situations where towing services may be helpful, even if they’re not strictly necessary. If your car is having difficulty starting, for example, a tow truck can give you a jump start. If you’ve run out of gas, a tow truck can bring you a can of gas. If you have a flat tire, a tow truck can bring you a spare.

In general, if you’re stranded on the side of the road, a tow truck can help you get back on your way. 

There is no definitive answer when it comes to whether or not towing is harmful to a vehicle. However, there are some things to keep in mind if you need to have your car towed. First of all, make sure that you have a tow truck that is reputable and reliable. Secondly, be sure to have your vehicle towed as short a distance as possible. Lastly, make sure to take your vehicle to a reputable and qualified mechanic to have it checked out after it has been towed. While there is no definitive answer, the best thing you can do is to be prepared and use caution when having your vehicle towed. Tow Mate offers reliable and professional towing services in Oklahoma.

Yes, we carry all needed equipment necessary to tow motorcycles. We understand that towing a motorcycle is different than towing a car, and we take extra care to ensure your bike arrives safe and sound. 

Yes, cars with automatic transmissions can be towed with the drive wheels on the ground. This is because automatic transmissions use a torque converter to transmit power from the engine to the drive wheels, which means that there is no need to use the transmission to drive the car.

There are many methods of towing, depending on what is being towed. There are three main types of tow trucks: flatbed, wheel-lift, and hook and chain. Flatbed tow trucks use a ramp to raise the vehicle onto the truck bed, while wheel-lift tow trucks use a metal yoke to lift the front or rear wheels of the vehicle onto the truck bed. Hook and chain tow trucks use a chain to secure the vehicle to the truck bed. All three types of tow trucks can be used to transport vehicles of all sizes, from motorcycles to semi-trucks.

Yes, we can tow your vehicle if it is in a parking garage. Our tow trucks are able to navigate through tight spaces, so we can safely tow your car from the garage. We offer roadside assistance services as well, so if you need help getting your car out of the garage, we can assist you.
