Signs you're in wheel-lift towing territory
- Your car is boxed in between two others and a long truck cannot back up to it
- The pickup is inside a garage with a low ceiling
- The destination is close, such as across town or to a nearby shop
- A front-wheel-drive car has a dead battery or a failed starter
- You are being asked to move a car out of a lot right away
- A flatbed is booked up and the car is a good fit for a hook-up
