Quick Rescue in the Dark
When the Williams Police Department called Murphys Towing for help with a disabled vehicle on Interstate 40 at mile marker 161, it was already dark out. Evening calls bring a different level of urgency. Visibility is lower, traffic feels faster. The risk of road accidents is higher. Every minute counts when someone’s stranded. We quickly dispatched Caleb, our best light-duty flatbed operator, to the scene for this Williams flatbed towing job.
Rapid Response
Caleb reached the scene just 19 minutes after the dispatch from WPD, covering a 20-mile distance to assist the driver in need! That’s quite impressive—and exactly the kind of quick response we strive for every day. In situations like this, we know that reaching our customers quickly means a safer experience for everyone. Our team takes pride in knowing the roads and working efficiently, even in challenging conditions like evening traffic or poor visibility.
When Caleb arrived, he winched the vehicle onto the flatbed. Once the vehicle was in place, he used his 8-point tie-down kit to secure all four corners of the car. This system is essential for ensuring the vehicle doesn’t shift during transport, even when navigating turns or changes in road conditions. For us, this level of care is part of every job. A fully secured vehicle is one of the key elements of our Williams flatbed towing approach, protecting the vehicle and ensuring a safe journey to the destination—in this case, to the owner’s home in Williams.
Why We Use Flatbed Towing
Flatbed towing has become the preferred method for many towing companies. And for good reasons. Unlike other hook-and-chain methods, flatbed towing keeps your vehicle fully secured and off the road. This reduces wear on your car and eliminates any potential damage from dragging or pulling. Flatbeds are ideal for cars, SUVs, and even some smaller trucks. They provide a stable, damage-free solution, particularly for vehicles with low clearance or all-wheel drive systems. With a flatbed, there’s no contact with the road surface, so your vehicle arrives exactly as it was left. In this case, Caleb’s decision to use our reliable light-duty flatbed ensured the disabled vehicle stayed safe with no additional risk of damage.
