Accident Towing
in Richmond, TX
Collision vehicle recovery in Fort Bend County — fast clearance, coordination with law enforcement, and flatbed transport for damaged vehicles that can't roll.
After the Collision — We Handle the Vehicle, You Focus on What Matters
A vehicle accident is already a stressful situation. Figuring out how to get a damaged, possibly non-rolling car off the roadway shouldn't add to that stress. Twin Cities Towing INC responds to accident scenes throughout Richmond and Fort Bend County 24 hours a day, with the experience and equipment to handle damaged vehicle recovery correctly — from coordinating with first responders to loading a totaled car without causing additional damage.
Accident-damaged vehicles present challenges that standard breakdown tows do not. Wheels may be seized, tires blown, frames bent, or doors jammed — all of which prevent the vehicle from rolling onto a wheel-lift normally. Our flatbeds are equipped with winches that pull non-rolling vehicles up the deck safely, without dragging or forcing anything that would worsen the damage or create a liability concern at the scene.
We work regularly with Fort Bend County law enforcement, including the Sheriff's Office and Richmond Police Department. We understand scene clearance protocols, know what documentation officers need before releasing a vehicle, and operate within the timing constraints that apply to highway lane blockage situations. Getting the scene cleared safely and quickly is something both we and the responding officers share as a priority.
After clearing the scene, we deliver to whatever body shop, dealership, or insurance-designated facility you choose. We provide documentation — invoice, service details, pickup/dropoff locations — that your insurance company may request when processing your claim. Call us immediately after securing your own safety following an accident — the faster we respond, the faster the road opens.

Accident Recovery Done Right in Fort Bend County
Scene Safety Is the First Priority
Our drivers set up warning equipment on arrival, position the truck to protect you from passing traffic, and work with law enforcement to control the scene before touching your vehicle. Moving fast matters — but not faster than scene safety allows.
Winch Loading for Non-Rolling Vehicles
Crash-damaged vehicles often can't roll. Our flatbeds carry winches designed to pull them up the deck safely. No dragging on the pavement, no forcing bent wheels — just a controlled, careful load that doesn't add to the damage.
Insurance Documentation Provided
We provide a detailed invoice with service information, pickup and dropoff locations, and contact details that your insurance company may need when processing your claim. We've been through this process with dozens of insurers — we know what they ask for.
Priority Response — Any Hour
Accident calls jump to front-of-queue dispatch. When lanes are blocked and first responders are waiting on a tow to clear the scene, minutes matter. We target 20–40 minute arrival on all accident calls throughout Fort Bend County.
Accident Towing FAQs — Richmond, TX
Do you coordinate with police at accident scenes in Richmond, TX?
