Parking Garage Towing in Oshawa

That’s why parking garage towing requires specialized equipment and experienced operators to remove your vehicle safely without causing additional damage.

Why Low Clearance Vehicles Require Specialized Garage Towing

Traditional towing methods are often unsuitable for parking garages. Low ceilings and steep ramps increase the risk of roof damage, undercarriage scraping, or suspension strain if improper techniques are used.

Jim’s Towing uses adjustable flatbed trucks and controlled recovery methods similar to those used in our specialty towing services. These techniques keep your vehicle level and stable during removal.

If your vehicle issue involves a dead battery, flat tire, or lockout, our roadside assistance services can often resolve the problem directly in the garage.

Common Parking Garage Towing Challenges in Oshawa and Durham Region

Parking facilities across Oshawa and nearby communities experience frequent towing issues, especially during busy periods or winter months. Statistics show that about 1 in 5 vehicle accidents in Ontario occur in parking lots or similar areas, many involving low-speed incidents that lead to breakdowns, dead batteries, flat tires, or lockouts requiring professional assistance.

We frequently assist drivers with services like jump starts, flat tire assistance, and car lockout services in low clearance parking structures.

Indoor parking becomes more common during colder seasons in Ontario, increasing the need for experienced low clearance towing and recovery support as drivers seek shelter from snow, ice, and salt, conditions that often contribute to more battery failures and other winter-related issues.

With Oshawa and Durham Region’s population growing significantly, more than 9% between 2016 and 2021, and continuing to rise rapidly, more vehicles are using multi-level and underground parking structures, making specialized low clearance towing even more critical for fast, damage-free service.

How Jim’s Towing Performs Safe Low Clearance Towing

Every garage tow begins with a careful on site assessment. Our operators evaluate ceiling height, ramp angles, and access points before selecting the safest extraction method.

Our process includes:

Loading vehicles onto low profile flatbeds
Using wheel dollies for controlled movement
Securing vehicles with soft straps
Navigating ramps slowly to avoid contact with structures

These same safety standards are applied across our medium duty towing services and heavy duty towing operations when required.
