Flatbed Towing in Lamar, TX.
Flatbed Towing for Lamar drivers, done by licensed Coastal Bend operators. Quick Tow Corpus Christi matches you with flatbed towing across the Coastal Bend, and the line takes calls 24/7. Flatbed towing is the right choice when a wheel lift isn't safe: all-wheel drive vehicles, electric cars with permanent drive motors, lowered sports cars, and anything with a damaged wheel or suspension.
Why is flatbed towing different in the Coastal & Outer Corridor?
Flatbed is the default for the long runs on US-77 and US-281 where dragging a car 40 miles is asking for damage. Storm-damaged and flood-totaled vehicles around Rockport and Refugio load flat for the insurance shop. RVs and boat trailers off the peninsula roads get the right deck.
What is flatbed towing like in Lamar, TX?
Park Road 13 is a dead-end peninsula road, a breakdown anywhere between the causeway and the Big Tree has one way out.
The Lamar Peninsula juts northeast into Copano and Saint Charles bays from its connection to SH-35. FM 1781 crosses the Copano Bay causeway to reach the peninsula, and Park Road 13 runs northeast from that junction to the entrance of Goose Island State Park, about two miles in. There is no through-route. One way in, the same way out. A camper or boat trailer that breaks down on Park Road 13 is stranded on a two-lane park road with no alternate exit, the tow truck has to come from Rockport, back it out, and haul it the full 12 miles south to any service. Goose Island State Park has 101 campsites, 44 bayside with water and electric, 57 under live oaks with water and electric, and 25 walk-in tent sites. The park draws RVers year-round, peaking in spring during bird migration and fall during Whooping Crane season. Large Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels navigate Park Road 13 to reach bay-side sites. A motorhome slide that seizes, a blown tire, or a diesel that won't restart after a cold night creates a recovery problem on a narrow park road with no shoulder to speak of. The Big Tree is a Coastal Live Oak the Texas Forest Service designated as the State Champion in 1966. Its circumference is 35 feet, its crown spreads 90 feet, and it's thought to be over 1,000 years old. It survived Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Carla, and every storm before them. It is the most visited single natural landmark on the Lamar Peninsula, and the combination of the Big Tree, the state park boat ramp, and Aransas Bay access draws anglers, birders, and kayakers from across Texas who are unfamiliar with the peninsula's dead-end geography.

Why flatbed towing instead of wheel lift?
Anything all-wheel drive needs flatbed towing, full stop - wheel lifts leave two wheels on the ground and the spinning driveshaft destroys the transfer case. EVs are the same story - dragging a Tesla or Rivian with drive wheels on the ground fries the motor. Sports cars and lowered cars need a flatbed because wheel lifts lift only one end and the other end scrapes. If you're not sure, call and say what you drive.
