Frequently Asked Questions
Flatbed Pickup and Delivery FAQs
Get clear answers to common questions about flatbed pickup and delivery, including repair options, safety, the process, and what to expect.
Should I drive my vehicle to the shop after an accident?
Do not drive a vehicle if it has fluid leaks, damaged wheels or tires, loose body parts, warning lights, steering problems, or other signs that it may be unsafe. Contact East Collision to discuss flatbed pickup when there is any doubt.
Can East Collision pick up a vehicle that cannot be driven?
Yes. East Collision can arrange a flatbed tow truck to bring the vehicle to its Bronx repair facility.
Why is a flatbed used instead of towing the vehicle on its wheels?
A flatbed carries the entire vehicle off the road, which helps avoid adding mileage or placing additional stress on damaged wheels, tires, steering, drivetrain, or body components.
How quickly can a flatbed tow truck arrive?
The page states that East Collision can typically send a tow truck in under one hour when the vehicle is within a 50-mile radius. Actual arrival time can vary with availability, traffic, weather, and location.
Can my repaired vehicle be delivered back to me?
Yes. The page states that East Collision can return the completed vehicle by flatbed.
Is flatbed pickup and delivery included in the repair cost?
Transportation pricing or insurance coverage can vary by repair and location. Contact East Collision to confirm availability, cost, and whether it may be included in your claim.
