Why Medium Duty Towing Is Not The Same As Regular Towing
When a work van, box truck, delivery vehicle, or small commercial rig quits on a jobsite or on I-44, it’s not just an inconvenience, it’s downtime, lost revenue, frustrated customers, and a pile of rescheduling. Medium duty towing is a different animal than a regular car tow; these vehicles are heavier, taller, and often full of tools, cargo, or inventory you cannot afford to lose.
At Five Star Towing, our medium duty towing in Oklahoma City is built to get commercial vehicles back into service or safely to a shop without drama. We bring the right trucks, the right equipment, and drivers trained to handle weight, balance, and the special care these vehicles need. Fast, licensed, insured, and available 24/7, because downtime doesn’t keep business hours either.
A medium duty vehicle weighs more, has different recovery points, and often carries materials that change the center of gravity. Hooking a medium duty truck to a light-duty tow truck or using the wrong straps may bend frames, shift cargo, damage shelving, or punch holes in flooring. That’s why medium duty towing is a specialist service:
- Weight and Capacity, medium duty rigs require trucks with higher gross vehicle weight ratings and appropriate chassis capacity.
- Securement of Load, cargo, ladders, and loose items must be secured before moving to prevent shifting and damage.
- Special Rigging, stronger winches, rated shackles, and multiple anchor points are often required.
- Licensing and Insurance, commercial clients need documented compliance for liability and claims.
- Safety and Traffic Control, larger vehicles often block lanes or are in dangerous positions requiring traffic management.
We handle each of these with systems, training, and gear, not guesswork.

Common Questions We Get Asked.
Medium duty vehicles typically include single-axle and tandem-axle box trucks, cutaway vans, service bodies, and small delivery trucks, vehicles larger than personal cars but not heavy tractor-trailers. GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) commonly ranges from 10,000 to 26,000 pounds for medium duty classes. When you call, tell us the vehicle make, model, and approximate GVWR so we dispatch the correct truck.
Response times vary with location and current job load, but we prioritize commercial customers. For most OKC metro locations we can dispatch within 15 – 45 minutes for medium duty calls. Emergency or after-hours incidents may take a bit longer; we always give an ETA when you request service.
Not always, but in many cases we recommend securing or offloading loose, heavy, or awkward cargo to reduce risk. If cargo cannot be offloaded, we use rated tie-downs, load bars, and pallet stabilization to secure items. We document cargo conditions before moving to protect you and us.
Yes, we frequently move box trucks with liftgates and refrigeration units. However, these vehicles need special handling: refrigeration units may require power procedures, and liftgates must be secured. Inform dispatch about auxiliary systems so the crew arrives prepared.
Medium duty towing handles vehicles in the medium commercial classes (generally up to 26,000 lbs GVWR). Heavy duty towing covers larger trucks, tractor-trailers, buses, and oversized equipment and often requires specialized heavy recovery rigs. If your vehicle exceeds our safe capacity, we coordinate with a heavy-recovery partner.
We use commercial-grade straps, E-track load bars, chains where appropriate, pallet straps, and blocking to prevent movement. For fragile or irregular loads we provide additional padding and specialized bracing.
Yes, our crews handle accident recoveries for medium duty vehicles, including winching, stabilization, and tow-to-shop services. Accident recoveries often require police coordination and may include debris removal and scene documentation.
Yes, we can transport medium duty vehicles longer distances; pricing changes to reflect mileage and driver time. For extended hauls we provide route planning and delivery windows.
Transport of hazardous materials is regulated. We will not move HAZMAT loads without proper documentation, placarding, and required permits. Inform dispatch if hazardous materials are onboard so we can advise the safe course of action.
Yes, our crews assess frame points and use appropriate lifts, flatbeds, or dollies as required. Some specialty bodies require a flatbed to avoid stress on the body or chassis.
Provide vehicle make, model, approximate GVWR, load status (empty or loaded), location, whether it’s blocking traffic, and destination for towing. Also inform us of liftgates, refrigeration units, or hazardous cargo.
Yes, for critical business operations we can prioritize dispatch under fleet agreements or emergency service calls. Discuss priority needs when setting up an account.
We secure cargo to prevent damage and document conditions. If you prefer, we can coordinate with your customer or warehouse to offload sensitive items prior to towing.
We offer both options; if your vehicle is drivable after recovery, we will ensure it is safe to continue. If not, we will tow it to a repair shop, storage, or location you choose.
