How to Tow with a Truck

Having to tow a truck can seem intimidating but check out our tips to help the process be less stressful.

Note, that to start this process, a hitch and chain or tow strap are needed. Here’s how to begin:

Align the back of the working truck in front of the non-working truck.

Loop the chain or tow strap through the hitch of the working truck.

Attach the chain or tow strap through the recovery point of the non-working truck.

The driver of the working vehicle will have to carefully pull until there’s enough tension on the chain or tow strap between both trucks.

Safety is essential. Be sure to turn the flashers on for both trucks. This is especially important for the non-working truck

Once both trucks are secure, the driver of the working truck must maintain a consistent pace during transit to ensure the safety of themselves and the driver in the rear vehicle
