Short-haul towing moves your vehicle a few miles: from the roadside to a repair shop, from a parking lot to your driveway, or from one side of Lake Park to the other. Elevated Tow Truck Experts handles these local moves for everyday drivers and for businesses with vehicles that cannot be driven. Our address is 108 Miller Way, Lake Park, FL 33403, and our trucks come to you.
What short-haul towing means
A short-haul tow is a local tow, usually within Lake Park, Riviera Beach and the towns next to them. Because the distance is short, the job is simple: we load the vehicle safely, drive it to the place you choose and unload it where it needs to be. You do not pay for a long trip you do not need, and you do not wait for a truck to come from far away.
When short-haul towing is the right call
- Your car will not start and you want it at a shop close by.
- A breakdown on Park Avenue, Northlake Boulevard or Old Dixie Highway leaves you stuck.
- A vehicle has to be moved from a lot or driveway to a repair facility in town.
- A car was parked and now will not move, and it has to be cleared.
- You want to avoid paying for a long trip when the shop is nearby.
Vehicles we move
We tow cars, SUVs, pickups and vans. If your vehicle is larger or unusual, tell us when you call and we will say whether this service fits or if one of our other pages, such as heavy equipment towing or travel trailer towing, is the better match.
How we handle it
- You call (561) 594-5891 and tell us where you are, what vehicle it is and what happened.
- We ask a few questions, such as whether the wheels roll, whether the car is in park and whether it is blocked in.
- We give you a free estimate by phone and explain what is included before the truck is sent.
- Our operator arrives, secures the vehicle, tows it to the place you chose and talks you through each step.
Information that helps us help you
When you call, have these ready. It saves time and lets us send the right setup the first time.
- Your exact location, or the nearest cross street or business.
- The year, make and model of the vehicle.
- Whether it starts, whether the wheels turn and whether the keys are with you.
- Where the vehicle needs to go, with the shop name or address.
- Anything that makes access harder, such as a tight garage, a gate or low clearance.
Where we work
We serve Lake Park and Riviera Beach, Florida, including Park Avenue, Northlake Boulevard, Old Dixie Highway, US-1 and the I-95 corridor. Whether your car stopped in a shopping center lot, on a side street or in your own driveway, tell us where it is and we come to you.
What affects the price
The price of a short-haul tow depends on the distance, the type of vehicle, where it is parked and how hard it is to reach. We explain what is included before we start, and if something changes during the job we talk to you first. There are no surprise add-ons that were not discussed on the phone.
Tips while you wait
- If you are on a road, move to a safe spot if the car can still move, and turn on your hazard lights.
- Stay out of traffic and wait away from the vehicle if the shoulder is narrow.
- Take your valuables and the documents you need with you.
- Do not try to push or restart a vehicle that is in a dangerous place; call us instead.
