After a crash
Accident Towing in Josephine When the Car Can't Go Further
A wreck on SH 66 or out in the county near Josephine can leave you with a car that shouldn't move under its own power. We arrange a careful tow and explain how it fits into your claim or budget.

When police clear a crash, the car has to go somewhere, and the first truck on scene may take it to a storage yard instead of a repair shop. Storage fees can pile up while a claim gets sorted, so it helps to know you have a say. You can ask for the car to be brought straight to the shop you choose. We arrange flatbed transport so a bent wheel or dragging bumper doesn't cause more damage on the way. We'll also explain how towing is usually paid for: your policy, the other driver's claim, roadside assistance or out of pocket. Your safety comes first, so reach out once you're clear of traffic and anyone hurt has help.
What Comes With an Accident Tow
The tow starts the repair, so it gets the same care as the rest of the job.
Deck loading, not a hook
All four wheels ride on the deck, which protects a bent suspension, a damaged transmission or an electric car's drive system.
Securing loose panels
Hanging bumpers, mirrors and trim are strapped down or removed so nothing gets lost or scraped along the way.
A few pictures where it sits
Quick photos of the car in place help the claim and record its condition before transport.
Pulling a car off soft ground
When a car slides into the grass along FM 1553 or the shoulder gives way, it's winched out slowly so the underbody isn't torn up.
Getting it out of a storage yard
If the car already went somewhere else, we can help arrange its release and move it here so storage charges stop growing.
Tow billing talked through first
We explain how the tow is usually billed and which coverage might apply, so the charge isn't a surprise later.
Car seats, papers and keys set aside
Anything you couldn't take from the scene is collected and kept safe until you come by.
Check-in inspection on arrival
Once the car arrives, it's logged, photographed again and looked over so the estimate can begin.
Getting the Car From the Crash Site to an Estimate
- 01
Get clear, then reach us
Move to a safe spot if you can and let first responders do their work. When you're ready, give us the car's location and a quick idea of what happened. If you're near Royse City or Caddo Mills, a nearby landmark helps the truck find you. We'll explain whether to contact your insurer first or let us start that conversation.
- 02
Load and transport with care
The car is winched onto a flatbed, strapped at the wheels and checked for leaks. Loose parts are secured or bagged. Photos are taken before it rolls.
- 03
Inspect and lay out the options
At the shop, the car is checked in and looked over. We write an estimate and explain your choices: a claim against the other driver, your own policy or paying directly. You decide what happens next, and nothing is repaired until you approve it.
Why Let the Repair Shop Handle the Tow
No detour through a storage lot
Going straight to the shop avoids an extra move and the yard fees that come with it. It also keeps the car in one place for the adjuster.
Damage stays as it was
A flatbed tow doesn't add scrapes or bend anything further. That keeps the estimate honest and the claim clean.
Someone explains what comes next
After a crash, plenty of people aren't sure what to do. We tell you plainly, including what it may cost and who may pay.
Car Stuck Where It Stopped?
If the car isn't safe to drive, don't try to limp it home. Let us know its location and we'll arrange to bring it in.
