RVs and motorhomes require specialized heavy-duty towing services due to their size, weight, and complex systems that standard tow trucks cannot safely handle.
Texas ranks second nationally in RV sales with $424.2 million annually and boasts 376 RV parks, more than any other state. With nearly 1 million Americans living full-time in RVs and countless others exploring our beautiful highways, reliable towing services have never been more critical.
Your RV isn't just an oversized car, and it can't be treated like one. Most RVs weigh between 10,000 to 40,000 pounds, with Class A motorhomes often exceeding 50,000 pounds when loaded for your adventure. A standard tow truck simply cannot safely handle a 35-foot motorhome or travel trailer.
RVs contain multiple interconnected systems including electrical, plumbing, propane, and sophisticated leveling mechanisms. Improper towing can damage these expensive systems, turning a simple breakdown into costly repairs that could have been avoided.
Engine and transmission failures top our emergency call list. Texas heat, regularly exceeding 100°F in summer, puts extra stress on cooling systems carrying heavy loads across long highway stretches.
RV tires carry enormous loads and face unique challenges including overheating from extended driving, age-related deterioration, and improper inflation. A tire blowout on a large RV can cause loss of control and significant body damage.
RV size and weight make self-recovery nearly impossible. Whether stuck in soft campground soil or involved in highway accidents, professional equipment is essential for safe recovery.
Texas law establishes specific requirements for RV operation, including maximum height (14 feet), width (8 feet 6 inches), and combined length limits (65 feet). Speed restrictions also apply, with trailers over 26 feet limited to 60 mph during the day.
Professional services use specialized equipment including rotator cranes, heavy-duty flatbeds, and Landoll trailers capable of handling loads up to 200,000 pounds. We follow strict safety protocols and maintain proper licensing for heavy-duty operations.
When RV emergencies strike on Texas highways, you need professionals who understand the unique challenges of heavy-duty recovery. Our experienced team provides 24/7 service with specialized equipment designed specifically for RVs and motorhomes.
