What Is Accident Recovery and Why You Need a Professional in Pinellas County

People often use 'tow truck' as a catch-all, but accident recovery is its own service with its own equipment, training, and considerations. When your car has been in a serious wreck, the difference between a professional recovery and a basic tow can be thousands of dollars in additional damage avoided.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does accident recovery cost compared to a standard tow?

More, because it requires specialized equipment and longer on-scene time. The exact cost depends on the complexity. Insurance typically covers recovery when it's tied to a covered claim.

Who decides if a tow is 'recovery' versus standard?

Our dispatch assesses based on the scene description you provide, and our driver confirms on arrival. If the scene is more complex than expected, we call in additional equipment rather than forcing a standard tow to work.

Do I have to use the recovery company the police call?

No. Florida law lets you choose your own tow/recovery company. Tell the responding officer you have one on the way.
