Vehicle classifications are based on the gross vehicle weight rating or GVWR of the vehicle. Heavy Duty Towing Classifications Heavy-duty vehicles with a GVWR of 26,001 and above. Class C Heavy-duty vehicles include vehicles such as dump trucks, garbage trucks, semi-trailers, tractor-trailers, and other heavy- duty vehicles, including machinery. All of these vehicles require some serious equipment. For example, heavy-duty trucks fitted with 25-ton boom lifts, winches, 6-ton wheel lifts, and even rotators. When heavy vehicles are involved in an accident, heavy-duty towing / recovery is used to help recover vehicles, often having to lift the entire weight of these vehicles. Light-duty vehicles have a GVWR between 0-16,000 pounds. Class A Medium-duty vehicles have a GVWR between 16,001 and 26,000 pounds. Class B Light Duty Towing Classifications When it comes to light-duty towing, it’s most common to find both regular and standard towing operations. Some of the duties involved in light duty may involve removing abandoned vehicles, private property, and also accident recovery. If you’re trying to picture what types of vehicles would be considered light duty, consider vehicles such as Mini-Vans, SUV’s, and Standard Pick-up trucks. Medium Duty Towing Classifications Medium duty towing would be vehicles such as RVs, box trucks, vans, and even motorhomes. For any of these vehicles, you would need to consider medium duty services. Tow trucks used to handle medium duty services would commonly be fitted with boom lifts, landolls, and also low-profile trailer options or flatbeds.
