When your vehicle can't be wheel-lifted — electric, AWD, low-clearance, or luxury — Fast Tow's flatbed fleet gets it there safely. ICBC-approved operators, free upfront quote, 24/7.
Not every vehicle can be safely towed with a wheel-lift. A flatbed keeps all four wheels completely off the ground — the only truly safe method for certain vehicle types.
EVs must never be wheel-lifted. Spinning wheels can damage the regenerative braking system and battery pack. Tesla, Rivian, Hyundai Ioniq, Chevy Bolt — all require flatbed.
All-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive drivetrains can be permanently damaged when towed with wheels down. Flatbed is the only safe method.
Low-slung sports cars and exotics can be damaged loading a wheel-lift. Flatbed provides contact-free transport with zero risk to bumpers, splitters, or undercarriage.
If your vehicle has frame or axle damage, wheel-lifting risks further structural harm. A flatbed cradles the vehicle flat — no additional stress to the chassis.
When an engine is seized or the transmission has failed, the vehicle cannot roll at all. A flatbed loads and carries it fully inert — no rolling required.
Sport bikes, custom builds, and vehicles with modified or lowered suspension all need flatbed loading to prevent undercarriage contact and damage.
Any tow company can send a wheel-lift. Fast Tow's flatbed operators are trained specifically in high-value vehicle loading — the kind of care your EV, AWD, or luxury car actually needs.
All four wheels stay completely off the road for the entire journey — no transmission spin, no drivetrain stress, no exceptions. Your EV or AWD arrives exactly as it left.
Every Fast Tow driver is ICBC-approved, fully licensed, and insured in BC. We meet the province's standards for safe vehicle transport — so your insurer is satisfied too.
Our flatbed trucks use hydraulic tilt and low-angle loading ramps — no scraping, no pushing. Low-clearance, sport, and custom vehicles load cleanly every time.
Dealership, body shop, home, or across the province — we deliver anywhere. For longer hauls, see our long-distance towing service.
We verify your vehicle type and confirm it needs a flatbed before we send the truck. The rate is locked — no upgrade surprises, no contact damage, no hidden fees on arrival.

Our operator uses the hydraulic tilt ramp to load your vehicle with zero scraping. It's secured with soft straps — no hooks on rims or bumpers — before transport begins.
The operator uses the hydraulic tilt to lower your vehicle off the deck with zero ground contact. It rolls off the ramp intact — exactly as it was loaded — to any dealership, body shop, or address in Metro Vancouver or across BC.

Electric vehicles cannot be towed with a wheel-lift because their regenerative braking systems and sealed drivetrains can be seriously damaged when wheels are spinning freely. A flatbed keeps all four wheels off the ground, protecting the battery pack and motor. This applies to all EVs — Tesla, Rivian, Hyundai Ioniq, Chevy Bolt, and others.
Yes — and for AWD and 4×4 vehicles, flatbed is the only safe option. These drivetrains can be permanently damaged if towed with a wheel-lift while the free wheels spin. Fast Tow uses flatbeds for all AWD and four-wheel-drive vehicles, no exceptions.
Yes. We use soft-strap flatbed loading for luxury and exotic vehicles — no hooks, no chains. Our operators are trained to handle high-value vehicles with care, using the hydraulic tilt ramp to load without any undercarriage contact or paint risk.
