When Towing Isn't Enough : You Need Recovery

‍Towing and recovery are related but distinct services and knowing the difference matters when your vehicle is in a difficult situation. Standard towing moves a vehicle from Point A to Point B. Vehicle recovery services bring a vehicle back from an unusual position first: one that's slid into a ditch off I-16, overturned on a Savannah highway, or sunk into soft ground near the Georgia coast. Tim's Towing and Recovery has provided towing and recovery services in Savannah since 1974, fielding the trained operators and specialized equipment needed to get vehicles safely back on solid ground before they can be towed.

Winch-Out and Off-Road Recovery

‍Tim's Towing and Recovery's recovery and towing capabilities include winch-out service for vehicles stuck off-road, on embankments, in ditches, or in other positions where conventional towing isn't possible. Our fleet includes a 2024 Peterbilt with an SP8000 side puller, purpose-built for versatile towing recovery situations. Our tow truck recovery team responds 24 hours a day, assessing each scene carefully to execute the extraction without causing additional damage to the vehicle.

‍Complex Recovery for Heavy and Commercial Vehicles

‍Tim's Towing and Recovery's towing recovery service capability extends to semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, and other large commercial vehicles. A 2025 Peterbilt 567 with a heavy-duty rotator handles complex recoveries that standard wreckers cannot. Whether a loaded flatbed has gone off the highway or a commercial truck needs to be righted and recovered before it can be towed, Tim's Towing and Recovery is the towing recovery service Savannah's commercial operators count on.
