Frequently Asked Questions

  • What's the difference between flatbed and regular towing?

    Flatbed towing lifts your entire vehicle onto a flat platform, eliminating wheel contact with the road, while regular towing pulls vehicles with two wheels on the ground. At JVM Towing and Transport LLC, we use flatbed equipment for classic, luxury, exotic cars, and recreational vehicles to ensure the safest transport without wear on your vehicle's drivetrain.
  • How quickly can emergency towing arrive in Davenport?

    Emergency towing response time depends on your exact location and current call volume, but 24-hour services prioritize fast dispatch for accidents and breakdowns. JVM Towing and Transport LLC provides quotes before dispatching and aims for prompt professional response throughout Davenport and surrounding areas to minimize your roadside wait time.
  • Can you tow semi-trucks and box trucks?

    Yes, specialized medium-duty truck towing handles commercial vehicles including semi-trucks, box trucks, dump trucks, and tractor-trailers. At JVM Towing and Transport LLC, we provide heavy-duty truck towing for both local and long-distance needs, equipped to safely transport larger commercial vehicles that standard tow trucks cannot accommodate.
  • What should I do if my car won't start?

    If your vehicle won't start due to a dead battery, a jumpstart service can often restore power and get you moving immediately. JVM Towing and Transport LLC offers quick battery jump start services, and if the battery fails testing, we provide on-site battery replacement with installation so you can continue your trip without delay.
  • Is flatbed towing safer for exotic cars?

    Yes, flatbed towing is the safest method for exotic, luxury, and classic cars because the vehicle rests completely on the platform with no wheels touching pavement. This eliminates risks of drivetrain damage, low-clearance scraping, or road debris that can affect high-value vehicles during transport.
  • Do tow companies deliver gas if I run out?

    Yes, emergency fuel delivery services bring enough gasoline to stranded vehicles so drivers can reach the nearest gas station. JVM Towing and Transport LLC provides gas delivery throughout Davenport and nearby areas, helping you avoid the hassle and safety risks of walking along busy Florida roads to find fuel.
  • Can a lockout service open my car without damage?

    Professional lockout assistance uses specialized tools to regain access without harming your vehicle or locking mechanisms. At JVM Towing and Transport LLC, our trained technicians safely unlock cars, trucks, and commercial vehicles, preserving door seals, paint, and electronic locks while getting you back inside quickly.
  • What happens during a roadside tire change?

    A roadside tire change involves removing your flat or damaged tire and installing your spare so you can drive safely. JVM Towing and Transport LLC provides tire change services on-site, ensuring your spare is properly secured and that you're ready to continue your journey or reach a repair shop for a permanent replacement.
  • How far can heavy-duty towing transport my truck?

    Medium-duty and heavy-duty towing services can handle both local and long-distance transport for commercial vehicles. JVM Towing and Transport LLC tows semi-trucks, box trucks, dump trucks, and tractor-trailers across regional distances, whether you need recovery within Davenport or transport to distant Florida cities for repairs or delivery.
  • Will a jumpstart fix my battery problem permanently?

    A jumpstart provides immediate power but doesn't repair a failing battery; it only recharges enough to start your engine. If your battery is old or damaged, JVM Towing and Transport LLC offers on-site battery testing and replacement, installing a new battery immediately so you avoid repeated breakdowns and enjoy reliable vehicle operation.
  • Why should I use flatbed towing for my RV?

    Flatbed towing protects recreational vehicles from additional mileage, tire wear, and potential transmission or axle strain during transport. At JVM Towing and Transport LLC, we use state-of-the-art flatbed equipment to safely secure and haul RVs, ensuring your investment arrives without mechanical stress or cosmetic damage.
  • What's the biggest mistake people make after a breakdown?

    Many drivers attempt DIY fixes or accept help from unqualified individuals, risking further vehicle damage or personal safety on busy roads. At JVM Towing and Transport LLC, we recommend calling professional 24-hour emergency towing immediately after a breakdown or accident to ensure safe, hassle-free recovery with proper equipment and expertise.
