Heavy & Medium-Duty Towing for Commercial Vehicles
When a commercial vehicle breaks down, downtime can quickly disrupt schedules, deliveries, crews, and customers. Riggs Towing & Recovery provides dependable heavy and medium-duty towing throughout Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, Fairfax, and Eastern Iowa for owner-operators, businesses, contractors, municipalities, and commercial fleets.
From box trucks and work vehicles to semi-trucks and tractor-trailers, our experienced operators have the equipment and training to handle demanding towing and recovery jobs. Whether you need a disabled delivery truck transported to a repair facility or a semi recovered from the roadside, Riggs is available 24/7.
Heavy & Medium-Duty Towing You Can Depend On
Commercial towing requires the right equipment, experienced operators, and an understanding of how different vehicles need to be handled. Our capabilities cover both medium-duty vehicles used by local businesses and heavy-duty trucks traveling across Eastern Iowa.
Whether your vehicle has suffered a mechanical failure, been involved in an accident, or become stuck off the roadway, we'll assess the situation and determine an appropriate towing or recovery method.
Because commercial vehicles don't operate on a 9-to-5 schedule, neither do we. Riggs Towing & Recovery is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
