Service Summary

Careful Recovery for Collision-Damaged Vehicles

Accident recovery focuses on disabled, collision-damaged vehicles that must leave the scene safely. TowDaddy assesses vehicle condition — including wheel, steering and suspension damage — before loading to prevent additional harm.
Vehicles can be transported to a collision centre, repair shop or storage destination. When the unit is stuck off the roadway or in a difficult position, winching and recovery may be required before flatbed loading.

Frequently Asked Questions

Accident recovery is the safe recovery and flatbed transport of vehicles disabled by collision damage, including delivery to collision centres, repair shops or storage.

Often yes, using flatbed loading and adjusted recovery methods. Wheel, steering and suspension damage must be disclosed so the operator can plan securement and loading safely.

Common destinations include collision centres, body shops, mechanical repair facilities and storage yards. Provide the preferred destination when requesting service.

Winching may be required when the vehicle is in a ditch, soft ground, awkward parking position or otherwise cannot be aligned for standard flatbed loading.

Operators plan loading around known damage to reduce further harm, but severely compromised vehicles can still be difficult to move. Accurate condition details help minimize risk.

Insurance details are helpful but not always required to start recovery. Destination instructions and vehicle condition information are the priority for dispatch.
