Why Action Towing's Tilt-Deck Fleet Leads the Pack

Low-Angle Hydraulic Precision:

Standard flatbeds have a fixed height, but our tilt-decks use advanced hydraulics to meet the pavement. This creates a gentle, low-angle ramp that is essential for loading low-clearance equipment like forklifts or scissor lifts without “bottoming out.”
Industrial-Strength Capacity:

Our tilt-deck units are built for the heavy hitters. Whether you're moving a 20-foot sea container, a piece of farm machinery, or a non-running medium-duty truck, our decks are engineered to handle massive weight with perfect stability.
Damage-Free “Slide & Load” Technology:

By eliminating the need for separate ramps, we reduce the risk of loading accidents. Our tilt-deck towing Edmonton team utilizes high-capacity winches to slowly and steadily pull your assets onto the deck.
24/7 All-Weather Versatility:

Edmonton winters and muddy spring construction sites are no match for a tilt-deck. Because the deck lowers completely to the ground, we can recover vehicles and machinery that are stuck in deep snow or slick mud much more effectively than a standard truck.
Support for Commercial and Industrial Transport:

Businesses often rely on tilt-deck towing to move equipment, work vehicles, and machinery between job sites or repair facilities.

Tilt-Deck Towing FAQs

Everything you need to know about our most versatile hauling option.

The main difference is the loading angle. A standard flatbed requires ramps, which can be steep and dangerous for heavy or low-clearance items. A tilt deck tow Edmonton unit uses hydraulics to incline the entire bed to the ground, creating a built-in ramp. This makes it much safer for loading “non-runners,” low-clearance machinery, and heavy containers.

Yes! Our tilt-decks are specifically designed for this. We can tilt the deck, winch the container on, and transport it safely. This is often the most cost-effective way to move sea cans or mobile offices between construction sites or storage yards in the Edmonton area.

Absolutely. Because the equipment is winched up a continuous, stable surface rather than being driven up narrow ramps, there is a much lower risk of the machine slipping or falling. Once on the deck, the load is secured with high-tension chains, ensuring it remains stationary even on rough highway hauls.

Our fleet includes light, medium, and heavy-duty tilt-decks. While capacity varies by unit, we can handle most standard construction machinery, medium-duty trucks, and loaded containers. Give us a call with the weight of your load, and we will match it with the perfect truck.

Yes. We are fully licensed for inter-provincial transport. We regularly move heavy equipment and containers from Edmonton to BC, Saskatchewan, and northern territories like the Yukon. We handle all the logistics and permits for these long-range moves.

Ensure the equipment is free of loose debris and that any movable arms or buckets are lowered and secured. If the machine is non-operational, let us know so we can bring the necessary winching gear. Our team will handle the rigging and securement once we arrive on-site.
