Towing Services and Your Insurance Policy
Most major insurance providers offer some kind of towing coverage. However, it’s not always covered in their standard policies for car insurance. It’s important to do your research and find out what your insurer will and won’t cover and how towing is handled under your coverage plan.
Depending on your insurance, you might be covered. Your insurance company will dispatch a tow truck to your vehicle whenever and wherever you need it before transporting it to the closest auto repair business.
Other companies will reimburse you for towing fees after you’ve paid the towing company up front. In these cases, it’s important to hold onto your receipt, so you can submit it to your insurance provider. Keep in mind that insurance companies might cap the amount they reimburse. For example, if they cover $50 but towing your car cost $100, they’ll only cover $50.
Towing After a Collision
If you’ve been in a collision and need your car towed, your insurance company will add the towing fee to your repair expenses. In these cases, they’ll handle your towing services as a reimbursement.
If you need repairs after towing your car, many auto body shops won’t charge you up front. Rather, they’ll add the towing cost to your final repair bill.
