Heavy Duty Towing FAQ — Charleston, South Carolina

What qualifies as heavy-duty towing in Charleston?
Most South Carolina operators classify vehicles over 26,000 lbs GVWR as heavy-duty: Class 7 and 8 trucks, semis, motorcoaches, full-size RVs, dump trucks, and heavy equipment. Below 26,000 lbs is usually medium-duty.
Can Charleston heavy-duty tows handle commercial trucks and RVs?

How much does heavy-duty towing cost in Charleston?
Heavy-duty towing in Charleston, South Carolina typically runs several times the cost of light-duty service because the trucks, fuel, and operator certifications cost more. Expect a hook-up fee plus a per-mile rate, with surcharges for winching, off-road recovery, or special permits.
