About Savannah Heavy Tow
Locally operated heavy-duty towing & recovery you can reach any hour of the day, serving Savannah and the surrounding GA communities.
Savannah Heavy Tow is a heavy-duty towing and recovery operation built around the freight economy that runs through this city. The Port of Savannah's Garden City Terminal is the largest single-container terminal in North America, and every box that moves through it rides a truck at some point. When one of those trucks breaks down, jackknifes, or slides off a soft shoulder, we are the crew that shows up with the equipment to actually move it.
We started this company because Savannah is a serious freight town without enough serious heavy-recovery coverage. Fleets running drayage between the terminals and the Pooler distribution warehouses, owner-operators pulling reefer up I-95, and motor clubs stuck with a Class 8 breakdown all kept running into the same problem: the light-duty companies could not lift the weight, and the heavy outfits were an hour and a half out. We built our fleet and our dispatch to close that gap.
Our equipment is matched to the work. Heavy wreckers with underlifts for tractors, trailers, box trucks, and buses. A rotator for rollovers, deep-ditch pulls, and precise heavy lifts. Lowboy and Landoll trailers for hauling excavators, dozers, reach stackers, and disabled units. Air-cushion recovery gear for uprighting loaded trailers without crushing the cargo. And service trucks stocked to handle roadside tire, air, and jump-start calls that never needed a tow in the first place.
Just as important as the iron is the crew running it. Recovery on a live interstate or a busy terminal apron is dangerous, technical work, and our operators are trained to secure the scene, protect the load, manage fluids and debris, and clear the lane to DOT standard. We coordinate with Georgia DOT, local law enforcement, and your insurer or motor club so the whole recovery — from the first winch line to the final release at your yard — moves as one job.
From Garden City and Port Wentworth to Pooler, Richmond Hill, Statesboro, and across the state line into Hardeeville and Bluffton, we cover the corridors where Savannah's freight actually moves. Program our number into your dispatch board now, before you need it — because when a rig goes down, the clock and the meter are already running.

(912) 555-0173The heavy-recovery outfit Savannah fleets put on speed dial
We're local, licensed, and answer the phone — no call centers, no runaround. When you're dealing with heavy-duty towing & recovery, minutes matter.
Call (912) 555-0173A dispatcher answers, not a call center
Downtime is billed by the hour, so speed starts at the phone. Call our line and a real dispatcher picks up, gets your unit number, GVWR, location, and what went down, and rolls the right wrecker — rotator, heavy, or service truck — to your position. No 'someone will call you back.'
Equipped for Class 8 and container weight
The Port of Savannah moves millions of containers a year, and the loads that go down here are heavy. We run heavy wreckers, a rotator for lifts and rollovers, and lowboy and Landoll trailers rated for full GVWR — so a loaded tractor-trailer or a piece of yard equipment gets recovered on the first trip.
We know the corridors and the clearances
I-95 and I-16, the US-17 approaches, the Talmadge Memorial Bridge, Garden City and Ocean Terminal gates, and the tight historic-district turns with low clearances all have their own rules. Our operators run these roads daily and stage recoveries to keep traffic moving and DOT happy.
We speak fleet, insurance, and motor club
Most of our calls come from dispatchers, fleet managers, and motor clubs, and we work the way they need us to — clean invoicing, PO and account setup, photo documentation for the claim, and honest updates on ETA and drop location so you can plan the load and the driver.
