[QUOTE="Trikky2, post: 506955, member: 240"] Odd. I have seen recovery people literally drag crashed cars onto low loaders. Those electric winches are powerful. Maybe they are worried about doing more damage? It could also be that the vehicle will be relayed eg, each low loader only takes it so far and then it gets swapped to another, in which case a seized wheel becomes a big pain. Yes recovering vehicles from abroad can take quite a long time. We had a few cars and caravans recovered by the AA/RAC etc. from the campsite over the years and often it would be some weeks before they came to collect them. I never charged any storage. I always felt it was bad enough for the poor owners to have this happen to them without then also having to pay for the privilege. [/QUOTE]
