Vehicles sometimes end up behind guard rails or down in ditches making it tough to safely recover them back to the road for towing. These are the situations when a rotator wrecker comes in handy. It is usually called upon to tow vehicles from places they cannot usually get out of, such as a ditch. The boom of these trucks can rotate 360 degrees and can easily extend a height of about 41 feet and extend out over 20feet, which means it is better suited than most other types of wreckers to handle difficult roadside situations.

Accidents on freeways are quite common. Often, doing recoveries on freeways require the police to shut down different lanes of traffic (if not the entire freeway) for the wrecker to do their job. In such situations, using a rotator tow truck is highly beneficial as it requires a relatively smaller area to upright or winch trucks/equipment back to the road safely and efficiently. Since you can rotate the boom of the rotator tow truck, it fits the requirements of various jobs. Furthermore, it also works parallel to the wreck which means more lanes of the freeway will remain open, hence some of the traffic disruption will be eliminated.

In conclusion, the advantages of rotator wrecker are numerous. There are several situations where using these trucks would be an ideal choice.
