Winch Out Service

Winch Out service must be precise, and it is a better practice than trying to get your car or truck out of a poor predicament on your own. Maybe you've driven yourself into deep muck or a steep ditch, and there's no way out except to be dragged out or to hire a winch out service. Barnes Auto & Towing uses cutting-edge equipment that will reduce the likelihood of damage to your vehicle and is both efficient and safe! We are fully licensed, bonded, and insured to perform our different tasks as a towing service provider. This means you can trust and be certain that your vehicle will be safe when we winch it out or transport it to a different place. We understand your concern about selecting a tow truck service that takes their job

seriously if you have asked for a winch out service because your car may already have damage from an accident. Barnes Auto & Towing's team of pros will treat your vehicle with the utmost care, as if it were their own. We provide a wide selection of safe transportation solutions and operate a big fleet of tow trucks to meet the demands of our customers for their cars, trucks, and even commercial vehicles.

Please do not attempt to winch out your own vehicle.

When your vehicle is stuck in a ditch, mud, or snow, it's tempting to try to manage the situation on your own, pulling it out, or a winch out. However, attempting to winch out your vehicle without professional assistance can be unsafe and cause more issues. Barnes Towing & Recovery's qualified technicians are equipped with the necessary gear and expertise to securely and efficiently remove your vehicle from difficult conditions like being utterly stuck!

One of the most significant risks of attempting self-recovery is a lack of appropriate SAFE equipment. Without a powerful winch, recovery straps, and the proper anchoring points, you may not have enough force to pull your vehicle out, inflicting more damage. Furthermore, without understanding of suitable winching techniques, you risk injuring yourself, your passengers, or onlookers. Improperly secured straps or cables may snap, resulting in hazardous projectiles that can cause significant harm or even death.

Barnes Towing and Recovery's team is educated to assess each circumstance and recommend the safest and most successful recovery strategy with safety being our top priority. We recognize the significance of protecting the integrity and the value of your vehicle and our team at Barnes will employ solutions that reduce the chance of harm. Furthermore, we have specialist equipment that is not only powerful but also equipped to manage a variety of recovery conditions, resulting in a smooth and regulated extraction.

Don't take needless risks; trust our professional team to get you back on the road safely and quickly.
