TOWING SERVICES
roadside assistance
Why winching? Whenever the vehicle gets stuck on a slope or is in a dangerous situation, such as severe damage or flooding, it may be easier and safer to connect two cables to the vehicle and thread it in a safe place instead of driving or dragging the vehicle.
An effective way to get your vehicle out of a ditch when it is stuck is to use a winch.
When your car gets stuck in mud, snow or sand, a winch removal service is often required.
A winch is one of the most common and easiest ways to rescue a trapped vehicle. Winching where the cable is connected depends on several different factors, such as the accessibility of the vehicle chassis in the current situation and the condition of the car
In addition to winches, our operators can handle all roadside emergencies and problems.
Stuck in the mud? Slide into a snow ditch? Give us a call and we'll send a truck (or two) to get your vehicle out safely.
Professional winching and roadside assistance services like Close By Towing hang heavy-duty tow cables in a stable and secure position on the car's chassis.
Most wreckers will try traditional towing methods before using a winch to free the vehicle from a dangerous situation. After securing your vehicle with a cable, an electric or hydraulic motor pulls the cable toward the truck, safely and slowly pulling your vehicle out of snowbanks, ditches, or other hazards.
Close By Towing provides fast, timely and efficient winching and roadside assistance services to help you safely and smoothly recover your vehicle in and around Calgary.
Wear suitable heavy-duty gloves to protect your hands from possible cuts and burns, especially when using wire or synthetic winches.
When using the winch, it is of the utmost importance to ensure the safety of everyone involved and those on site. This is because if there is enough force to pull the trapped vehicle out of the ditch, it doesn't care if something or someone gets in the way as it coasts.
When you're stuck in a heavy snow or ice storm, call a reputable winch company for help like Close By Towing. However, the difference between a winch service and simply using a car can be confusing at times.
