Medium Duty Towing in Indianapolis
Not every vehicle that needs towing falls neatly into the light duty or heavy duty category. Medium duty vehicles occupy the middle ground — too large and heavy for a standard light duty tow truck, but not requiring the full capacity of heavy duty equipment. AAA Indianapolis Towing Company provides medium duty towing throughout Indianapolis for the full range of vehicles that fall into this category. Whether you operate a delivery truck, a large passenger van, or a medium sized commercial vehicle, our drivers and equipment are ready to handle it. Call us and we will dispatch to you as quickly as possible.
What Is Medium Duty Towing?
Medium duty towing covers vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) between 10,000 and 26,000 lbs. This puts them above the threshold for standard light duty towing but below the threshold that requires heavy duty equipment.
Common medium duty vehicles include:
– Box trucks — enclosed cargo trucks commonly used for deliveries and removals
– Large passenger vans — including airport shuttles, hotel transport vehicles, and large multi-passenger vans
– Step vans — the type of vehicle commonly used for parcel and food delivery routes
– Medium sized flatbed trucks — used for transporting goods, equipment, and materials
– Larger pickup trucks — heavy duty pickup trucks that exceed the light duty GVWR threshold
– Medium commercial vehicles — a broad range of work vehicles used across trades and industries in Indianapolis
If you are unsure whether your vehicle falls into the medium duty category, call us with your vehicle type and we will advise you before dispatching.
When Do You Need Medium Duty Towing
Medium duty vehicles are often working vehicles — delivery trucks, trade vans, and commercial transport — which means a breakdown can have a direct impact on your business operations. Common situations where medium duty towing becomes necessary include:
- A box truck or delivery vehicle has broken down on an Indianapolis road or highway
- A large passenger van has suffered a mechanical failure and cannot be driven
- A medium commercial vehicle has been involved in an accident and needs to be recovered
- A step van or trade vehicle needs to be transported to a repair facility in Indianapolis
- A medium duty vehicle needs to be moved from one location to another across Indianapolis
We understand that when a working vehicle is out of service, time matters. AAA Indianapolis Towing Company dispatches promptly and works efficiently to get your vehicle to where it needs to go with as little delay as possible.
The Right Equipment for Medium Duty Towing
Medium duty towing requires trucks and equipment that are built for the weight and size of these vehicles — not simply a light duty truck being pushed beyond what it was designed for. Using undersized equipment on a medium duty vehicle is unsafe and risks causing additional damage to the vehicle during the tow.
AAA Indianapolis Towing Company uses appropriate medium duty equipment for these jobs. Our drivers assess each vehicle and situation before attaching anything, ensuring the right approach is taken for your specific vehicle’s size, weight, and condition.
