An SUV’s shape does not tell the professional whether it has two- or four-wheel drive. That detail, weight and any accessories affect transport choice. If it is off-road, describe the terrain: recovery from sand or mud needs a separate assessment from ordinary road towing.
Information to prepare
- State two- or four-wheel drive if known.
- Give the model, load and bulky accessories.
- Describe road surface, sand, mud or a steep slope.
- Add access photos only from a safe position.
What to watch for
Off-road recovery depends on specialist personnel and equipment. Do not improvise a pull from an attachment point not identified in the manual.
