Wrecker trucks are commonly used to tow non-operational, damaged, illegally parked, and repossessed vehicles. Also known as recovery trucks, there are several variations with different load capacities. Rollback trucks use a flatbed with winches to lift and secure a vehicle for transport. For vehicles that cannot be pulled behind or are being transported long distances, rollback trucks are frequently used. Wreckers and rollbacks vary in their features, including advanced operator control systems and extra storage for tools and equipment.
