Cars, pickups, vans and RVs on a flatbed

Titan Tow & Repair tows cars, pickups, vans and RVs on a rollback flatbed 24/7 around Liberty and the Kansas City metro. Because the vehicle rides on the deck rather than on its own wheels, all-wheel-drive cars, lowered vehicles and non-rollers travel without extra drivetrain strain.

The same yard that runs the heavy wreckers runs the rollbacks, so a car gets the same answer at 3am that a semi does.

Flatbed or Wrecker? Which One Your Vehicle Needs — All-wheel drive, electric cars and low front ends often have to go on a flatbed. What the difference is, and why the wrong choice can cost you a drivetrain.

Other services

Heavy-duty towing

A loaded tractor-trailer is not a bigger car. It needs a rated wrecker, a rated operator and a plan before anything gets hooked. That is what we send.

Mobile truck repair

Our service truck carries the parts and the tools. Faster for your driver, cheaper for your office, and the load keeps moving.

Trailer repair

Most trailer faults do not stop a trailer moving. They stop it being legal to move, which is worse — the load sits while the paperwork says it cannot go anywhere.

Light-duty towing questions

Do you tow cars, or only trucks?

Both. We run rollback flatbeds for cars, pickups, vans and RVs out of the same Liberty yard as the heavy wreckers, 24 hours a day. Being a heavy-duty company does not mean we turn down a car — it means the same dispatch that can send a wrecker to a semi can send a flatbed to a saloon, and one phone call covers either. Tell us what you drive and whether it still rolls and steers, because those two answers decide which truck comes.

Why a flatbed instead of a wheel lift?

On a flatbed the vehicle rides on the deck with no wheels turning and no drivetrain spinning, which is the safe option for all-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, lowered cars, non-rollers, and anything with damaged suspension or steering. A wheel lift leaves two wheels on the road, and on the wrong vehicle that means transmission or differential damage that costs more than the tow did. If you are not sure which yours needs, tell us the make, model and drivetrain and we will decide before the truck leaves.

Can you get to a car in a parking garage or tight lot?

Usually yes, but the clearance decides it, so tell us the height when you call. A rollback needs room to tilt the deck and space to winch the car straight, which many parking structures do not have — in those a wheel lift goes in instead and brings the vehicle out to where it can be loaded properly. Underground levels, tight ramps and low beams are all worth mentioning up front. We would far rather know before the truck is dispatched than send one that cannot get in.

How much does it cost to tow a car in Kansas City?

Light-duty tows are quoted on the phone when you call — the honest inputs are the distance, whether the car rolls and steers, and whether it is somewhere awkward like a parking structure. We do not publish a rate card because the same tow can be simple or fiddly, but we will give you the number before the truck rolls, and it does not change on arrival unless the job you described changes. No after-hours surcharge games: nights and weekends are our normal hours.

Can you move a car that does not run, roll or steer?

Yes — that is what the winch on the flatbed is for. A car with a seized engine, locked wheels, collision damage or no key gets winched up the deck on skates or dollies where the wheels will not turn, and rides flat with nothing touching the road. Tell us what is wrong with it and where it sits; a dead car in a driveway is routine, and a dead car in an underground garage just needs the clearance conversation first.

Do you do jump starts, lockouts and tire changes for cars?

Yes, where we can — jump starts, lockouts and tire changes are part of the light-duty side of the operation, on the same 24-hour dispatch as everything else. The honest caveat is in that "where we can": some late-model cars protect their locks beyond what roadside entry tools sensibly attempt, and a wheel seized to the hub can turn a tire change into something else. Tell us the make, model and what happened, and we will say on the phone whether it is a five-minute roadside job or whether the flatbed should come along in case. Either way you are not calling a second company.
