You might be halfway through grading a lot or hauling materials when something goes wrong. One dead bulldozer or a jammed-up dump truck, and the rest of your crew stands still. On rural job sites or busy access roads around Lawrence, recovery needs to happen fast—and it needs to happen right.
Coastal Towing Service responds with a plan. With decades of experience and a fleet built for heavyweight jobs, we know how to step in without adding confusion to the chaos. Our operators can recover machines from flood zones, pull equipment out of ditches, and clear job sites on short notice. Rotators, wreckers, winch-out rigs–we send what fits the job, not just what’s available. Every response is calculated, fast, and handled by a trained operator who knows their way around the machine and the recovery.
Sometimes, machines that don’t roll still need to move. Heavy equipment can’t ride just anywhere. Oversized loads and non-running gear like pavers, graders, and broken-back trailers need more than just clearance; they need coordination. From site to destination, every step requires planning.
Coastal Towing Service is built for that challenge. Our heavy towing team knows the roads in and around Lawrence, the rules, and the routing requirements. With Landolls, lowboys, and heavy tow trucks in our rotation, we handle oversized loads without relying on guesswork. We coordinate permits, prep the site, and get your machine moving. Let us handle your scheduled transport or breakdown. We will get to you fast, with trained eyes and no skipped steps.
Heavy machinery transport isn’t just a matter of putting something on wheels. Oversized and overweight gear–like compactors, graders, or commercial generators–requires the proper planning and a team that knows how to do it without delays or damage. Without those things, your machine might not just miss delivery—it might not move at all.
At Coastal Towing Service, we handle heavy machinery transport with structure. That starts with our fleet, which includes Landolls, flatbeds, and heavy tow trucks, built for payloads that push the limits. But what makes the difference is how we operate: detailed loading plans, experienced riggers, and precise routing that avoids unnecessary holds or inspections. From tracked machinery that won’t roll to wheeled equipment that’s stuck in park, we know how to load it, how to haul it, and how to deliver it ready for the next job.
A buried skidsteer or overturned dump truck won’t recover itself. Get the experts on it. Field recoveries come with tough decisions: anchor points, ground conditions, and how to lift without tipping or snapping key components. A miscalculation can destroy your equipment. And your timeline.
That’s why recovery is never guesswork for Coastal Towing Service. We approach every recovery in Lawrence with a process: assess, plan, execute. Our team arrives with the right gear and the right attitude. No shouting. No chaos. Just a calculated winch-out, hoist, or rotation backed by decades of experience. Once we stabilize and retrieve your equipment, we transition to transport. No delays, no second crews.
