Rely on us for towing answers throughout the Clarkston or Stone Mountain, GA areas

  • What's the weight limit for heavy-duty towing?

    Heavy-duty towing can handle vehicles up to 10 tons, including box trucks, RVs, and semitrucks. Specialized winching and recovery equipment is used for safe transport. At Abdul's Towing, we've handled heavy-duty recoveries throughout Clarkston, GA for over 25 years.
  • How does flatbed towing protect my vehicle?

    Flatbed towing lifts your entire vehicle off the ground, eliminating wheel and transmission stress during transport. This method is ideal for low clearance vehicles, accident recovery, and preventing further damage to disabled cars. It's the safest option for breakdowns.
  • Can you tow luxury cars without damaging them?

    Yes, luxury car transport uses specialized secure equipment and techniques to ensure safe, scratch-free delivery. High-end vehicles require extra care during loading, tie-down, and unloading. At Abdul's Towing, we've safely transported luxury vehicles for over 25 years.
  • What's included in roadside assistance services?

    Roadside assistance includes jump starts, tire changes, lockout service, and fuel delivery for stranded motorists. These services help you get back on the road quickly without needing a full tow. Emergency response is available throughout the Clarkston, GA area.
  • How far can you tow a vehicle nationwide?

    Nationwide vehicle transportation covers all 50 states for personal, business, travel, or temporary relocation needs. Long-distance towing includes a safe delivery guarantee regardless of distance. At Abdul's Towing, we coordinate multi-state routes with careful planning and tracking.
  • What types of equipment can you haul?

    Equipment hauling services transport construction equipment, wood stock, science equipment, and various commercial materials. A skilled handling team ensures safe loading, securing, and timely delivery. Proper tie-down techniques prevent shifting or damage during transit.
  • When should I use medium-duty instead of light-duty towing?

    Medium-duty towing is designed for mid-size commercial vehicles, delivery trucks, and larger passenger vehicles that exceed light-duty capacity. Light-duty handles standard passenger cars, motorcycles, and small vehicles. At Abdul's Towing, we match the right equipment to your vehicle's weight and size.
  • What happens during accident recovery services?

    Accident recovery includes vehicle extraction from ditches or obstacles, debris removal from the scene, and safe transport to a repair facility or storage. Specialized winching equipment handles overturned or severely damaged vehicles. Emergency response teams work quickly to clear accident scenes.
  • Does weather in Georgia affect towing response times?

    Yes, heavy rain, flooding, and occasional ice in the Clarkston, GA area can slow response times and require extra safety precautions. Severe weather increases accident calls and roadside emergencies. At Abdul's Towing, we monitor local conditions and prioritize urgent calls during storms.
  • What's the biggest mistake people make after a breakdown?

    Many drivers stay inside their vehicle on busy roads instead of moving to a safe location away from traffic. This increases accident risk while waiting for a tow. Always exit carefully, move behind guardrails when possible, and call for professional towing immediately.
  • Can you tow an RV that's stuck off-road?

    Yes, heavy-duty towing with specialized winching and recovery capabilities can extract RVs from mud, sand, or ditches. Recovery equipment handles up to 10-ton vehicles safely. At Abdul's Towing, we assess the situation and use the right rigging to avoid further damage.
  • How is a semitruck towing different from regular towing?

    Semitruck towing requires heavy-duty equipment rated for commercial vehicle weight and specialized knowledge of air brake systems and fifth-wheel connections. Standard tow trucks can't safely handle the size or weight. Proper rigging and transport prevent cargo shifts and structural damage.
