Does LightSpeedBid provide towing services for electric vehicles?

Yes. LightSpeedBid provides full towing and removal for electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles, including Teslas, Nissan Leafs, Chevy Bolts, Toyota Priuses, plug in hybrids, and high voltage battery vehicles of all types. Sellers often search for junk my electric car, tow EV safely, or sell hybrid with dead battery, and LightSpeedBid has specialized EV-capable towing partners across the nation.

Electric vehicle towing requires expertise. LightSpeedBid towing partners are trained to:

  1. Load EVs safely
    EVs often cannot be pulled by the wheels because of regenerative braking systems. Tow partners use:
  • Flatbeds
  • Wheel dollies
  • Low angle load systems
  • Winch assisted loading
  1. Handle high voltage components
    EVs contain high voltage battery packs that require special handling. Tow partners use non conductive straps and EV safe procedures.
  2. Manage dead or unresponsive EVs
    If the battery is dead, drained, or locked, tow operators use:
  • Service mode procedures
  • Manual shifts into neutral
  • Wheel skates
  • Flatbed winching
  1. Towing without damaging the drivetrain
    Some EVs cannot be pulled on their drive wheels. Tow partners ensure there is no drivetrain strain.
  2. Buy EVs in any condition
    LightSpeedBid buys electric vehicles with:
  • Dead batteries
  • Failing battery modules
  • Electrical malfunctions
  • Water damage
  • Collision damage
  • Missing chargers
  • Failed inverters
  • Missing battery packs
  • Severe mechanical or electrical failure

Towing is always free, and EVs often have strong resale or recycling value due to high demand for battery materials.
