A vehicle that slid off the road into a ditch or onto an embankment is not a normal tow. It needs recovery equipment and a plan that protects the vehicle and everyone around it. Elevated Tow Truck Experts recovers vehicles from ditches, embankments and soft ground in Lake Park and Riviera Beach. Our address is 108 Miller Way, Lake Park, FL 33403.

Why recovery is different from towing

When a vehicle is stuck below the road, the truck cannot simply hook up and pull. We look at how steep or deep the vehicle sits, what the ground is like and where the vehicle can safely be pulled out. Pulling the wrong way can cause damage or make the situation worse.

When you need ditch or embankment recovery

  • A car slid off the road after heavy rain and is stuck in a ditch.
  • A vehicle is resting on an embankment beside a ramp, shoulder or canal bank.
  • Wheels are spinning in soft ground at the edge of a lot or driveway.
  • A truck or van left the pavement and cannot get back on.
  • A vehicle is tilted or partly off the road and cannot be driven out.

What to do right now

  • Stay out of the vehicle if it sits near moving traffic or water.
  • Turn on hazard lights and stay clear of the road.
  • Do not keep spinning the wheels, as it digs the vehicle in deeper.
  • Do not try to drive out or push it yourself.
  • Call us with your location.
