A flatbed, also called a rollback, carries your whole vehicle on a flat deck. No wheels touch the road. That matters for a lot of the cars on Austin roads today. Many all-wheel-drive and 4x4 vehicles can be damaged if they are towed with two wheels down. Most electric vehicles should ride on a flatbed too. Sports cars, lifted trucks and classics also travel better on a bed.
M&A Towing is locally owned and has served Austin since 2023. We load your car with care and secure it for the ride. Then we take it to your shop, your home or a dealer anywhere in Austin, or farther across Texas. Tell us the year, make and model when you call. We'll confirm a flatbed is the right fit and give you the price before we load.
What we handle
AWD and 4x4 vehicles
Towing these with two wheels down can strain the drivetrain. A flatbed keeps all four wheels off the road.
Electric and hybrid cars
Many EV makers recommend flatbed towing, so your electric car rides fully on the deck.
Sports and classic cars
Lowered cars, sports cars and classics ride on the bed, up off the potholes and road debris.
Cars that won't roll
Locked brakes, a missing wheel or crash damage? We can winch the car onto the bed.
While you wait
- Check your owner's manual to see if your car is AWD or calls for a flatbed, and mention it when you call.
- Look up how to shift your car into neutral with a dead battery, since many newer cars need a special step.
- Clear out loose items and anything valuable, and fold in your mirrors if you can.
