Getting Your Car Towed After An Accident

Getting-Your-Car-Towed-After-An-Accident

If you are a victim of a car accident, you might need help from a nearby towing company, especially when your car is severely damaged. Most people never really think about towing services or how these services really work. First of all, it’s important to determine whether or not your car really needs to be towed. A tow truck may arrive at the accident scene as a result of the request made by law enforcement. However, you have the freedom to select the towing contractor.

Cost estimation

It is advisable to ask questions from the tow truck driver about the expenses and where your vehicle will be towed. If you have no idea about the cost, don’t let the company tow your car. There are other costs such as storage fees and multiple tow operations that can put a strain on your budget. Simply put, be aware that the longer you leave your car, the more you have to pay.

Insurance

You must know what your insurance policy covers in case of a car accident. Review your policy to understand what is covered and what isn’t. If you have roadside assistance coverage, the insurance company will probably cover the cost of the tow. If you don’t have coverage for towing, it is going to be an expense you have to pay.

Hiring a towing company

When you hire a towing company to get your car towed to the repair shop or any other location, make sure the company has a good reputation in the marketplace. Ask your friends or family for a quick recommendation. If you’re located in Edmonton, we’re happy to help. Action Towing believes in prompt and affordable roadside assistance.
