Box Trucks, RVs, Commercial Up to 26,000 lbs
Standard tow trucks handle sedans and pickups. Heavy-duty wreckers move semis and buses. In between sits a critical category, box trucks running deliveries through Miramar, shuttle vans moving employees from Sorrento Valley to Kearny Mesa, RVs at Campland that won't start on checkout day, work trucks loaded with tools heading to Otay Mesa job sites. We handle the 10,000-26,000 lb range.

GPS-tracked transport, commercial invoicing available. Call (619) 872-5285 now, we move the vehicles that move your business.
Medium-duty covers FHWA Classes 4 through 6, with Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings (GVWR) from 14,001 to 26,000 lbs. In practical terms:
Isuzu NPR, Hino 195 and 258, Ford E-450 and F-550 box trucks, Freightliner M2 106, International CV. The backbone of local delivery. If your box truck stalls on Convoy Street during the lunch rush or overheats on I-15 through Miramar, we tow it, loaded or empty.
Ford Transit 350 HD, Mercedes Sprinter 3500, Ram ProMaster 3500. When a heavy-spec cargo van loaded with equipment exceeds light-duty towing capacity, medium-duty is the answer. Amazon DSP vans, FedEx route trucks, refrigerated delivery vans.
Hotel shuttle vans, airport transport vehicles, church buses, employee shuttles. A breakdown creates an immediate operational problem. We prioritize commercial passenger vehicle tows and coordinate with your operations team.
Class C motorhomes (Ford E-450 or Chevy 4500 chassis), smaller Class A motorhomes, large travel trailers that need a dolly-and-tow approach. SD's RV culture is strong, between Campland on the Bay, Silver Strand RV lots, East County campgrounds, and snowbirds on I-8 and I-15, we handle RV tows year-round.
Utility trucks, bucket trucks, service body trucks, contractor vehicles loaded with tools and materials. Heavy when loaded and often break down in commercial zones, Kearny Mesa, Miramar, Otay Mesa industrial.
Ford F-550 and F-650 flatbeds, International 4300 stake beds, landscaping trucks. Cargo weight must be considered in the total tow weight.
If your business depends on vehicles in the 10,000-26,000 lb range, here's what a commercial relationship with us looks like.
Fleet accounts receive priority in our dispatch queue. A broken-down box truck on a Tuesday morning is a revenue emergency, not just an inconvenience.
No driver fumbling with a credit card on the side of the road. Your company on invoiced billing with net-30 payment terms. Each invoice: date, time, location, vehicle ID, mileage, and service performed, ready for fleet records.
Companies using our medium-duty service regularly receive adjusted per-tow pricing. The more consistent the relationship, the better the rate. Call (619) 872-5285 to discuss your volume and get a custom quote.
If you have more than one vehicle down, multi-truck accident, fleet recall, lot relocation, we coordinate multiple trucks simultaneously. We have handled fleet moves for commercial operations across Miramar, Otay Mesa, and the Kearny Mesa auto corridor.
Every tow documented with pickup time, delivery time, mileage, vehicle condition notes, and GPS route data. For companies that track fleet utilization and maintenance costs, our documentation integrates cleanly.
Miramar is the logistics hub of San Diego, warehouses, distribution centers, business parks lining Miramar Road. Box truck throws a check engine light or a delivery van overheats in the industrial corridor.
We are there in 20-30 minutes. We know these streets.
Packed up at Campland on the Bay, but your Class C motorhome will not turn over. Or heading home from Anza-Borrego and the transmission starts slipping on SR-78.
We tow RVs to service centers, dealerships, or your home driveway.
Delivery fleet, one truck disabled on I-805 during peak delivery windows. Every minute costs money, delayed deliveries, rescheduled routes, unhappy customers.
Call (619) 872-5285 and reference your account for expedited dispatch.
Work truck rear-ends someone on SR-163, or a box truck clips a low overhang in a parking structure. Medium-duty accident recovery requires heavier winch capacity, robust frame engagement, and CHP or SDPD coordination for lane closures.
San Diego's commercial border zone, cross-border freight, manufacturing, industrial warehouses along Otay Mesa Road, Siempre Viva, Britannia Boulevard. Breakdowns block freight movement and port access.
We respond regularly and understand the urgency of keeping commercial lanes clear.
Between auto dealerships on Convoy and business parks extending toward Balboa Avenue, Kearny Mesa generates steady medium-duty service calls.
Our drivers know the grid street by street.
Medium-duty rates reflect specialized equipment and additional labor. We always provide a quote before beginning work.

Fleet accounts: Invoiced billing, net-30 terms, volume pricing. No long-term contracts required. Our commercial relationships are sustained by service quality, not legal obligation.
Commercial vehicles often contain tools, equipment, or cargo. Staying near the vehicle (in a safe spot) protects your inventory. If you must leave, lock the vehicle and document its condition with photos.
A 16,000-lb GVWR box truck with 12,000 lbs of cargo is a 28,000-lb tow, beyond medium-duty capacity. Be as accurate as possible about your load when you call. If loaded beyond our range, we coordinate heavy-duty resources honestly.
Medium-duty vehicles on I-5, I-8, I-15, or I-805 shoulders require more clearance for safe hookup. Stay in the cab with hazards on. We coordinate with CHP if a lane closure is needed.
Loose cargo in the back of a box truck or van can shift during transport and cause damage. If safe to do so, secure or remove loose items before we load the vehicle onto the underlift.
Our medium-duty equipment handles vehicles up to 26,000 lbs GVWR, FHWA Classes 4 through 6. Box trucks, RVs, large cargo vans, shuttle buses, and most work trucks. Vehicles over 26,000 lbs: call (619) 872-5285 and we coordinate heavy-duty resources.
Yes. We tow Class C motorhomes (Ford E-450 and Chevy/GM 4500/5500 chassis), smaller Class A motorhomes, and large travel trailers. For very large Class A motorhomes on diesel pusher chassis (over 26,000 lbs), we assess whether medium-duty is sufficient or if heavy-duty is needed. Call us with your RV's make, model, and approximate length.
Yes, with one caveat: we need approximate cargo weight. A 16,000-lb GVWR truck with 6,000 lbs of cargo is within our range. The same truck with 12,000 lbs pushes to 28,000 lbs, over medium-duty capacity. Be accurate when you call.
Longer than a standard car tow. Expect 10-20 minutes for hookup, depending on vehicle type, position, and whether any cargo needs to be secured before transport. We do not rush hookup on heavy vehicles.
Yes. We work with delivery companies, fleet operators, dealerships, construction companies, and property management firms across San Diego. Commercial accounts: priority dispatch, invoiced billing (net-30), volume pricing. No long-term contracts.
Yes. Medium-duty breakdowns on I-5, I-8, I-15, I-805, SR-163, SR-94, and SR-78 are regular work. We follow CHP protocols for freeway towing, proper lane protection, traffic cones, warning lights. Can coordinate with CHP if lane closure is needed.
