If you drive a car it’s very likely that sooner or later you will need to call a towing service. The help of a towing company is extremely valuable and is often needed when you least expect it. In previous blog posts we wrote about the services provided by a tow truck company that offers roadside assistance. Here are some things to know before calling a towing service for roadside assistance.
Calling a Towing Service When You Need Roadside Assistance
When you call a tow truck for service to request roadside assistance always have the following information available.
Location
It is essential that you let a tow truck operator know the exact location of your vehicle. In order to provide roadside assistance the tow truck needs access to your vehicle. The roadways in Charleston, SC can be very challenging for a tow truck operator. Providing roadside assistance on the interstate is very different from assisting a motorist stranded on a quiet street. If your car troubles can’t be resolved easily with roadside assistance, your vehicle will need to be towed. Let the tow truck driver know exactly where your car will be towed to.
Make, Year, and Model of Your Car
In order to bring the proper type of equipment a towing service needs to know the make, year, and model of your car. This may not seem so important, but to a tow truck operator it’s critical information.
Car Issues
You don’t have to be a mechanic. However, letting a tow truck operator know your vehicles mechanical issues is a huge help.
