Moreland Avenue & Forest Parkway Heavy Duty Towing in SE Atlanta, GA
24/7 heavy-duty towing and recovery on Moreland Avenue and Forest Parkway. Dispatched from Union City, GA.
Moreland Avenue and Forest Parkway run through the southeast industrial and railyard belt, where the older warehouse stock meets the Norfolk Southern intermodal traffic and the truck yards that serve it.

What Dispatch Needs When You Call
- Which corridor and which direction — Moreland Avenue and Forest Parkway northbound, southbound, eastbound, or westbound.
- The nearest exit or mile marker — this is the single most useful thing you can give us.
- What you are driving — tractor-trailer, box truck, bus, RV, container chassis, or equipment.
- Loaded or empty — this changes the truck we send and the recovery plan.
- What failed — tire, brakes, air, engine, or a load shift. A load shift is a different job.
- Whether anyone is hurt or a lane is blocked — that moves you to the front of the queue.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if my trailer is stuck on a rail crossing?
Call immediately and tell dispatch it is a crossing. That is a priority call and the railroad may need to be notified. Stay clear of the tracks.
Do you work inside the Forest Park yards?
Yes. Yard breakdowns are common here and usually easier than a travel-lane job.
Can you pull a trailer off soft ground?
Yes, with a winch-out. Tell dispatch how deep it is and whether the trailer is loaded.
Do you handle equipment at scrap yards?
Yes. Uneven ground and heavy equipment make those calls slower, so tell dispatch what is around you.
