Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can a Hadley flatbed get to me?

Average dispatch time across our eight SoCal locations is 10–30 minutes. In peak rush-hour windows we'll give you a realistic ETA the moment you call — no padding, no guessing.

Will flatbed towing damage my car, AWD system, or transmission?

No. Flatbed is the safest tow method on the road. Your entire vehicle rides up on the deck with no wheels on the ground and no pressure on the drivetrain — the only correct way to tow AWD, 4×4, all-wheel-drive, EVs, and luxury vehicles.

What types of vehicles can a Hadley flatbed tow?

Anything from a Mini Cooper to a fully-loaded F-350. We tow sedans, SUVs, crossovers, pickups, lowered cars, exotics, classic cars, EVs, motorcycles, and small commercial vehicles. If it doesn't fit, we'll dispatch the right medium- or heavy-duty truck instead.

How much does flatbed towing cost in Southern California?

Prices depend on pick-up location, drop-off, mileage, and whether the vehicle needs winching or recovery. We give you a transparent flat-rate quote on the phone before dispatch — no surprise charges, no hidden fees.

Do you accept credit cards and insurance billing?

Yes. We accept all major credit cards, debit, cash, mobile payment, and we direct-bill auto insurance carriers, motor club programs, fleet accounts, and dealership accounts. Receipts emailed instantly.

Can you tow my vehicle long-distance or out of state?

Yes. Hadley provides long-distance flatbed transport from Whittier, Baldwin Park, Fontana, Orange, Santa Ana, Fullerton, Fullerton East, and Costa Mesa to anywhere in California, Arizona, Nevada, and beyond. Call dispatch for a long-haul quote.

What if my vehicle is in a tight parking garage or steep driveway?

Our operators are experienced with low-clearance garages, steep driveways, parallel-parked spaces, and tight alleys. Tell us the conditions when you call and we'll dispatch the right size flatbed for the job.

Stranded? We're On the Way.

Service · Specialty Transport

ZERO-DEGREE TOWING

For lowered vehicles, classic cars, exotics, and show cars — our custom zero-degree decks load perfectly flat so your front splitter, air dam, and undercarriage never touch pavement. The gold standard for specialty vehicle transport.

Built for Precious Cargo

Standard flatbeds load at around 10–12 degrees. That's fine for most cars — and a disaster for lowered suspensions, deep front lips, and classic cars with fragile chrome. Our zero-degree trucks pivot the entire deck flush to the ground. Your car rolls on at a true zero-degree angle. Nothing scrapes. Nothing bends.

Ideal For

  • Lowered & bagged builds
  • Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren
  • Classic & vintage show cars
  • JDM & tuner builds with body kits
  • Concours-condition restorations
  • Vehicles with aftermarket splitters
  • Race cars & track-prep transport
  • Museum & auction delivery

Recent Exotic & Classic Loads

Frequently Asked Questions

What is zero-degree towing and why does it matter?

Zero-degree towing uses a custom flatbed that lays completely flush with the pavement — a true 0° load angle, versus the 8–12° of a conventional rollback. That difference is the entire reason your splitter, lip, exhaust, and air dam survive the load.

Do you use wheel straps or chains on exotics and lowered cars?

Wheel straps only — never chains. Straps hold the tires, not the frame or suspension, so your car isn't stressed in transit. This is the OEM-approved method used by Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren, and Lamborghini dealers.

What kind of vehicles do you transport with zero-degree?

Lowered builds, bagged vehicles, exotics, classics, JDM and Euro tuners, vintage muscle, race cars, restomods, concours show cars, McLaren P1, Pagani, Bugatti, Ferrari LaFerrari — anything where ground clearance, paint, or aero matters.

Can you transport my classic car between states?

Yes. Hadley provides door-to-door zero-degree open transport throughout California and across state lines — dealer auctions, museum deliveries, restoration shops, concours events. Call our Whittier HQ to book.

Are your zero-degree trucks insured for high-value vehicles?

Yes. Hadley carries full commercial cargo coverage and on-hook insurance sized for high-value loads. We can provide a Certificate of Insurance to your insurer or dealer on request.

Do you load and unload at private collections or museums?

Absolutely. We work with private collectors, dealerships, museums, auction houses (Mecum, Barrett-Jackson, Bonhams), and restoration shops. Discreet, scheduled, and fully documented.

Do I need to schedule in advance?

Zero-degree trucks are limited — we recommend booking 24–48 hours in advance for non-emergencies. Same-day specialty pickups are usually possible — call Whittier dispatch to confirm availability.

Move Your Build the Right Way.

When it has to arrive perfect — call the operator Southern California collectors have trusted since 1952.

Service · Heavy Duty

HEAVY-DUTY TOWING

Semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, motor coaches, RVs, box trucks, and commercial equipment. Our under-lift rigs, landolls, and rotators are rated for the biggest loads on the road — and our operators have decades of recovery experience.

When the Job Is Big

Heavy-duty recovery is its own discipline. You need the right rig, the right rating, and an operator who can read a scene — jackknifed trailers on a grade, overturned tankers, a bus broken down in the center lane. Hadley runs a modern heavy fleet across all SoCal freeways and has the permits, the insurance, and the track record to handle it.

We Tow & Recover

  • Semi-trucks & Class 8 rigs
  • Tractor-trailers & box trucks
  • Motor coaches & school buses
  • Class A & Class C RVs
  • Dump trucks & cement mixers
  • Loaded & empty trailers
  • Rollover & off-road recovery
  • Freeway accident recovery

Recent Heavy-Duty & Equipment Jobs

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you respond on SoCal freeways and at night?

Yes — heavy-duty dispatch runs 24/7/365. We respond to every freeway in our service area (5, 10, 15, 60, 91, 105, 110, 210, 405, 605, 710, 22, 55, 57, 73) and coordinate directly with CHP, local PD, and DOT on every major incident.

Can you tow a fully loaded semi-trailer or 53-foot dry van?

Yes. We separate the trailer, swap the tractor, or recover both based on the scene. Cargo can stay loaded or be transferred — our heavy-duty crews handle full-load rigging, transload, and overnight cargo storage when needed.

Do you operate a rotator wrecker?

Yes — we run a 75-ton Peterbilt rotator with full boom for rollovers, off-road recoveries, ditch extractions, and complex load shifts. Whittier dispatch routes the right asset based on the scene.

What weight class trucks can Hadley tow?

Class 7 and Class 8 — semi-trucks, day cabs, sleepers, dump trucks, cement mixers, refuse trucks, water trucks, fire apparatus, motor coaches, school buses, Class A motorhomes, and box trucks above 26,000 GVWR.

Are you set up for direct fleet billing and insurance accounts?

Yes. We maintain commercial accounts with national fleets, owner-operators, insurance carriers, and motor clubs. Full DOT documentation, BOLs, cargo manifests, and photo records on every job.

Can you handle hazmat or fuel-spill recovery?

We coordinate immediately with certified hazmat response crews and CHP for any incident involving fuel, oil, or hazardous cargo. Vehicle recovery starts the moment the scene is cleared.

How quickly can a heavy-duty wrecker reach my breakdown?

Most freeway responses across the SoCal corridor are 25–60 minutes depending on traffic and asset location. Call Whittier HQ — we give you a real ETA, route status, and arrival window upfront.

Heavy-Duty Recovery, Fast.

We've been pulling SoCal's biggest rigs off the road since 1952 — one call handles the rest.

EQUIPMENT TRANSPORT

Forklifts, skid steers, excavators, generators, and containerized loads. We handle job-site moves, inter-yard transfers, and legal transport of oversized commercial equipment across Southern California.

If It Rolls, We Haul It

Hadley transports any equipment — excavators, telehandlers, aerial lifts, forklifts, pavers, loaders, containers, generators, construction trailers, you name it. We run a full landoll fleet with the right decks, tie-downs, and permits to keep your load legal, secure, and on-schedule across all of Southern California.

Recent Loads

We Transport

  • Forklifts & skid steers
  • Excavators & backhoes
  • Telehandlers & wheel loaders
  • Aerial & scissor lifts
  • Generators & compressors
  • Shipping containers (20' & 40')
  • Pavers & road equipment
  • Oversized & over-length loads

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you pick up equipment from an active construction job site?

Yes. We coordinate directly with your site superintendent on access, timing, escort requirements, and any city or county permits needed for oversize loads. Job-site pickups are routine — we operate across all SoCal counties.

Do you load equipment at the origin or do I need to load it?

If the equipment can roll under its own power, we load it. For non-mobile equipment, dead batteries, or down machines, we route a landoll with the right winch capacity and tilt deck — just tell dispatch when you call.

What size and weight of equipment can you transport?

Forklifts, telehandlers, scissor lifts up to 60', boom lifts including the Genie SX-180, mini-ex, mid-ex, full-size excavators, skid steers, dozers, wheel loaders, pavers, generators, compressors, light towers, and 20'/40' shipping containers. Oversize permitted loads handled in-house.

Do you offer contract fleet rates for ongoing equipment moves?

Yes. We open commercial accounts for general contractors, rental yards, equipment dealers, municipal operators, and rental fleets like Sunbelt, United, Herc, and BlueLine. Volume rates and dedicated dispatch contacts available.

Are your operators licensed for oversize and over-length loads?

Yes. Our heavy haul operators carry the proper Class A CDL endorsements and we pull all required Caltrans, county, and city oversize permits when the load demands it. Pilot/escort cars arranged when required.

How far in advance should I schedule equipment transport?

Same-day moves are usually possible — just call. For oversize permitted loads or weekend pickups, 24–72 hours of lead time guarantees the right truck and crew.

Do you carry cargo insurance for equipment transport?

Yes. Hadley carries full commercial cargo and on-hook insurance with limits sized for heavy equipment. Certificates of Insurance issued on request.

Move Equipment the Right Way.

Properly secured, properly insured, properly documented — every single load.

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

Dead battery at a parking meter? Locked out in a grocery store lot? Flat on the shoulder of the 10? Hadley's roadside trucks roll quick with the tools, fuel, and parts to get you back on the road without a tow.

Back on the Road Fast

A lot of the time you don't need a tow — you just need help. That's why every Hadley location runs roadside units stocked with jumper packs, replacement batteries, fuel cans, and lockout tools. We'll get you going in minutes instead of hauling your car to a shop.

What We Do

  • Lockouts (no key or trim damage)
  • Flat tire changes & swaps
  • Jump starts (12V & diesel)
  • Battery service & replacement
  • Emergency fuel delivery
  • Tire air-ups & minor repair
  • Winch-outs from soft ground
  • Wait-and-tow if repair fails

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can a Hadley roadside truck reach me?

Typical roadside response across our eight SoCal locations is 10–30 minutes. We give you a real ETA the moment you call — not a "we'll try."

Do you provide battery service and replacement on-site?

Yes. Our roadside units carry jump packs that fire dead batteries in seconds, and stock replacement batteries for most makes. If your battery is gone, we install a new one right where you're parked — no second trip required.

Can you deliver fuel if I run out of gas or diesel?

Yes — emergency fuel delivery is a core Hadley roadside service, available 24/7 across all eight locations. Both regular gasoline and diesel. You hear the full cost (service fee plus fuel) on the phone before dispatch rolls.

Can you unlock my car if I'm locked out?

Yes. Our lockout tools work on modern vehicles — push-button start, smart-key, and traditional ignitions — without damaging trim, weather seals, glass, or electronics. We unlock cars in parking lots, driveways, garages, and on the side of the freeway.

Can you change a flat tire if I don't have a spare?

If you have a spare, we mount it on the spot. If you don't, we'll air up the flat (if it holds) and escort you to the nearest tire shop — or load you on a flatbed and tow you there. Whatever gets you back on the road safest.

What if roadside service can't fix the problem?

You won't pay twice. If our roadside tech can't get you running, the same call rolls into a tow — we credit the service call against your tow charge and dispatch the right truck immediately.

Stuck? One Call Fixes It.

Hadley Tow's roadside crews cover every corner of Southern California — day, night, weekends, holidays.

Service · Secure Storage

VEHICLE STORAGE

Secure, monitored impound and private storage yards at multiple Hadley locations across Southern California. Short-term holds, long-term storage, and full lien-sale and DMV reporting handled in-house.

Gated, Monitored, Documented

Our storage yards aren't back lots — they're fenced, lit, camera-monitored facilities with logged access. Every inbound vehicle is photographed, inventoried, and logged on intake. Every outbound release is documented with signatures and ID verification so the chain of custody is clean.

Storage We Offer

  • Police impound holds
  • Post-accident storage
  • Insurance total-loss storage
  • Private / personal long-term
  • RV & commercial vehicle storage
  • 24-hour gated access points
  • Camera & lighting coverage
  • Full lien sale & DMV reporting

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I release my vehicle from a Hadley storage lot?

Bring a valid government-issued photo ID, current vehicle registration or proof of ownership, and any paperwork from the reporting law-enforcement agency or property manager. Call our Whittier HQ first to confirm which lot your vehicle is being held at and what the total release fee will be.

What documents do I need if I'm not the registered owner?

If you're picking up someone else's vehicle, you need a notarized release authorization from the registered owner plus your own government ID. For company vehicles, bring a signed letter on company letterhead from an authorized signer plus your ID.

What are your release-line hours?

Most release counters operate Monday–Friday during normal business hours, with limited Saturday hours at select locations. After-hours release for police-impound holds may be available with prior arrangement — call your branch first.

How are storage fees calculated?

Storage fees are charged per day per vehicle, with a separate first-day intake fee. Rates align with the California maximum schedule. We send you the full itemized total over the phone before you arrive — no surprises.

Do you handle California lien sales and DMV reporting?

Yes. We manage the full California lien sale process per CVC §3068.1 and §22851 — owner notifications, DMV reporting, sale advertising, and clean-title transfer. All documentation handled in-house.

Can I retrieve personal items from my stored vehicle?

Yes. California law allows the registered owner to retrieve personal property without paying storage fees. Call ahead, bring your ID and proof of ownership, and we'll arrange supervised access.

Are your storage lots actually secured?

Yes — fenced perimeter, gated access, exterior lighting, and continuous camera coverage with logged entries. Every inbound vehicle is photographed, inventoried, and logged at intake. Every outbound is documented with signature and ID verification.

Secure Storage You Can Trust.

Monitored, gated, and fully documented — with Hadley's 70+ year track record behind every lot.

ACCIDENT TOWING

Been in an accident? Breathe. We'll handle the rest. Hadley provides free accident towing when covered by your insurance — we coordinate directly with your adjuster, document the vehicle, and move it fast so you can focus on getting home safe.

Free Accident Towing with Insurance

Most auto insurance policies include towing after a collision. If yours does, you pay nothing out of pocket — we bill your insurance directly. No upfront charges, no surprise invoices. Just call from the scene and we'll start the process the second we arrive.

What We Handle

  • Scene response & recovery
  • Direct insurance billing
  • Adjuster coordination
  • Damage photos & documentation
  • Transport to repair shop or storage
  • CHP & PD scene cooperation
  • Multi-vehicle collision recovery
  • Total-loss transport to yard

Frequently Asked Questions

Is accident towing really free with my insurance?

If your auto policy includes towing after a collision — and most California policies do — then yes, you pay nothing out of pocket. We bill your carrier directly. Policies vary by carrier and tier, so call from the scene and we'll verify your coverage before we tow.

What should I do at the scene of an accident?

(1) Make sure everyone is safe. (2) Call 911 if there are injuries or major hazards. (3) Exchange driver, insurance, and vehicle info with the other party. (4) Take photos of every vehicle, license plate, and the overall scene. (5) Call Hadley — we coordinate with responding officers, document the damage, and tow your vehicle wherever it needs to go.

Can you tow my car to a specific repair shop, body shop, or dealership?

Absolutely. Tell dispatch where you want it and we deliver. If you haven't chosen a shop yet, we'll store the vehicle safely at one of our secured lots at no charge for a reasonable hold period while you sort out the claim.

What insurance carriers do you direct-bill?

State Farm, GEICO, Progressive, Allstate, Farmers, USAA, Mercury, Liberty Mutual, Nationwide, Travelers, Wawanesa, Esurance, AmFam, and most other major California carriers. We handle the paperwork and adjuster coordination so you don't have to.

What if my car is totaled — what happens next?

We transport total-loss vehicles to your insurer's preferred storage facility, salvage yard, or to one of our secure lots while the claim settles. We provide your adjuster with full intake photos and a written condition report.

Do you respond to multi-vehicle and freeway accidents?

Yes — 24/7. Hadley is on rotational lists with CHP and several SoCal PD agencies. We dispatch flatbeds and heavy-duty wreckers as the scene requires and coordinate with first responders.

How long can my car stay in your storage lot after an accident?

As long as the claim or repair coordination needs. Insurance-covered storage is billed to your carrier; private storage is billed at standard daily rates. We send you written notice well before the maximum hold approaches.

One Call. No Out-of-Pocket.

After a crash, the last thing you need is a payment hassle. We handle insurance — you handle you.

PRIVATE PROPERTY IMPOUND

Keep your parking lot clear. Hadley provides full PPI services for apartment complexes, HOAs, retail centers, and business lots — easy contract set-up, free sign installation, coverage anywhere in SoCal.

Turn-Key PPI Coverage

Property owners and managers don't need a long pitch — they need unauthorized vehicles gone. Hadley has run PPI programs across SoCal for decades. We sign the contract, install the required signage at no cost, and respond to your calls fast and fully within California law.

What's Included

  • Easy contract set-up
  • Free signage installation
  • CA CVC §22658 compliance
  • 24/7 impound response
  • Secured storage at our lots
  • Owner-notification handling
  • Lien sale & DMV reporting
  • SoCal-wide coverage

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost a property owner to set up PPI service with Hadley?

Zero out-of-pocket cost to you. We install all required signage at no charge, write the contract, and handle every piece of paperwork. The cost of each impound is billed to the registered owner of the towed vehicle, exactly as California Civil Vehicle Code allows.

How fast does Hadley respond to PPI dispatch calls?

Typical response times range from 10–30 minutes depending on your property's location. We operate out of eight branches covering LA County, Orange County, and the Inland Empire — your nearest branch handles your account.

Do you handle all the paperwork, notifications, and DMV reporting?

Yes — every piece. CA CVC §22658 has strict notification, reporting, and timing requirements. We handle the registered-owner notification, lienholder notification, DMV reporting, and storage tracking. You just manage your property.

What types of properties do you provide PPI service for?

Apartment communities, condominium HOAs, single-family HOAs, retail strip centers, shopping malls, office parks, medical buildings, schools and universities, places of worship, restaurants, hotels, gas stations, fitness centers, mobile home parks, and any private property where unauthorized parking is a recurring problem.

What signage do you install and is it CA-compliant?

We install full-size, fully reflective, CA CVC §22658-compliant signage at every required entrance. Sign placement is reviewed and signed off before activation — keeping your property fully compliant and protected against wrongful-tow claims.

What happens after a vehicle is towed off my property?

The vehicle is transported to one of our secure, gated, camera-monitored Hadley storage lots. We notify the registered owner and lienholder per California law and handle release through our standard impound process. Your property stays clear, your tenants stay protected, and you have zero administrative burden.

Keep Your Lot Under Control.

Simple contract. Free signs. Fast response. That's how property managers have run with Hadley for 70+ years.

Service · Medium Duty

MEDIUM-DUTY TOWING

Between a flatbed and a big rig sits a whole world of trucks — box trucks, dually pickups, work vans, fleet vehicles, and Class 4–6 commercial rigs. Hadley's medium-duty decks and rigging are built exactly for them.

Right-Sized Recovery

Calling a heavy-duty wrecker for a Ford F-450 is overkill. Calling a standard light-duty truck is not enough. Medium-duty is purpose-built for that middle ground — the trucks, vans, and commercial vehicles that keep SoCal running. We've got the right decks, the right ratings, and the right operators for every mid-weight job.

We Tow

  • Box trucks & step vans
  • Dually pickups (F-350/F-450/3500)
  • Work vans & fleet vehicles
  • Class 4–6 commercial rigs
  • Shuttle buses & limos
  • Light tow trucks & utility rigs
  • Tradesperson fleet vehicles
  • Delivery & courier vehicles

On the Road with Hadley Medium-Duty

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need a medium-duty tow instead of a flatbed?

If your vehicle is a dually pickup (F-350, F-450, F-550, Ram 3500/4500/5500, GMC 3500HD), a box truck, a large step van, a shuttle, or a Class 4–6 commercial rig — you need medium-duty. Call dispatch with the year, make, and model and we'll confirm in under a minute.

What's the GVWR range for Hadley medium-duty?

Class 4 through Class 6 — roughly 14,001 to 26,000 lbs GVWR. Heavier than that and we move you to a heavy-duty wrecker. We have the right rig for the right weight every time.

Do you offer fleet accounts and direct billing for commercial customers?

Yes. We maintain ongoing fleet accounts for trade contractors, plumbing/HVAC fleets, delivery and courier services, food-service trucks, electrical contractors, landscaping fleets, school transportation, and municipal operators. Volume rates and dedicated dispatch contacts available.

Can you tow my work truck if it's fully loaded with tools or cargo?

Most of the time, yes. We evaluate the load, weight distribution, and DOT requirements when you call so we dispatch the right deck and rigging. If the load needs to come off, we coordinate transload at the scene.

How fast can a medium-duty truck reach my location?

Typical response across our eight SoCal branches is 20–45 minutes for medium-duty calls. Whittier HQ gives you a real ETA the moment you call.

Can you tow shuttle buses, limos, and box trucks?

Yes — short shuttles, airport vans, stretched limos, party buses up to 30', U-Haul-style box trucks (16–26'), and step vans. We tow them every week.

Are your medium-duty operators commercially licensed?

Yes. Our medium-duty drivers carry the appropriate Class A or B CDL endorsements with required medical certifications. Full DOT compliance, full commercial insurance, full documentation on every job.

Right Truck for the Job.

70+ years of moving SoCal's commercial fleets — one call and it's handled.

From a flat tire on the 405 to a jackknifed semi on a snowy mountain pass, Hadley Tow runs the trucks, operators, and storage lots needed to handle it. Every service we offer is dispatched out of every one of our eight Southern California locations — light-duty, medium-duty, heavy-duty, equipment transport, exotic zero-degree flatbed, accident recovery, roadside assistance, private property impound, and secured vehicle storage.
