Owning a precision-engineered sports car, vintage exotic, or low-clearance performance vehicle on the North Shore means taking extra care of low front splitters, carbon-fiber aerodynamic undertrays, and custom-forged wheels. Standard commercial wreckers, sharp metal chains, and steep tilt-bed ramps are the fastest way to ruin expensive bodywork.
At North Shore Towing, we operate an all-flatbed fleet outfitted with extended, low-approach race ramps, synthetic soft strapping systems, and experienced operators who understand the exact geometry of high-end vehicles. From scenic weekend drives along the Sea to Sky Highway to local trips through the British Properties or Dundarave, we provide white-glove transport with absolute attention to detail.

High-value vehicles demand specialized equipment and careful handling. Even minor mistakes during vehicle transport can lead to thousands of dollars in cosmetic and structural repairs:
Carbon Splitter & Diffuser Scraping: High-performance supercars have front overhangs that sit merely 2 to 4 inches off the asphalt. When a standard flatbed tilts up, the angle between the ramp and the pavement causes front spoilers to scrape and fracture.
Bent Suspension & Distorted Alignment: Hooking steel chains around delicate aluminum lower control arms, sway bars, or steering links can distort your alignment or bend structural suspension components.
Rim Lip Scoring & Scratches: Metal-on-metal tie-downs or chains sliding against forged wheels strip clear coats, gouge wheel faces, and damage powder-coated finishes.
Our transport process is designed specifically to eliminate every one of these risk factors.
Our flatbeds feature shallow hydraulic deck designs paired with specialized auxiliary race ramps. By extending the loading incline, we reduce the breakover angle down to a fraction of standard tow beds. Whether your car features an aggressive aftermarket front lip or sits on ultra-low track-focused coilovers, the front bumper clears the ramp without contact.
We enforce a 100% synthetic strapping standard for luxury and performance cars. We use heavy-duty, industrial nylon tire baskets and over-the-wheel webbing. The straps wrap solely around the rubber tire tread, securing the car directly to the bed deck. This allows the car’s natural suspension to absorb road bumps while keeping metal hardware far away from your brake rotors, calipers, and custom rims.
When loading a non-running exotic, we never hook metal winches directly to steering rods or axle points. We utilize factory screw-in tow eye receivers or synthetic bridle straps designed to distribute load forces evenly across the chassis, pulling the car onto the deck smoothly.
Our flatbed operators regularly transport high-end, European, and custom vehicles throughout West Vancouver, North Vancouver, and the Lower Mainland:
Porsche (911 GT3 / GT3 RS, Turbo S, Cayman GT4, Boxster): We clear ultra-low front overhangs and manage rear weight distribution over the rear axle safely. For track builds with fixed front splitters, our extended ramps ensure zero clearance issues.
Ferrari & Lamborghini (Huracán, Revuelto, 296 GTB, 488, Aventador): We safely accommodate wide-body platforms, custom carbon aero packages, and low-profile aerodynamic underbody diffusers.
McLaren (720S, 750S, Artura): We work with McLaren’s delicate dihedral doors, low sill clearances, and composite underbodies to ensure safe loading.
BMW M & Mercedes-AMG (M2/M3/M4/M5, AMG GT, C63): We manage low front aerodynamic valances, wide rear tires, and performance suspension setups without placing stress on steering assemblies.
Lowered, Stanced, & Air-Suspension Builds: Whether your car is static on coilovers or bagged on an air-ride system that has lost pressure, our operators take the time to build out ramp transitions with composite blocks and guide the vehicle up millimeter by millimeter.
Our flatbed trucks are stationed on the North Shore for rapid response across all local neighborhoods and scenic routes:
West Vancouver: The British Properties, Chartwell, Ambleside, Dundarave, Caulfeild, Cypress Park, and Horseshoe Bay.
North Vancouver: Lower Lonsdale, Lynn Valley, Deep Cove, Capilano Highlands, and Edgemont Village.
Scenic Drives & Corridors: The Sea to Sky Highway (Highway 99 toward Squamish & Whistler), Cypress Bowl Road, Mount Seymour Road, and Marine Drive.

We use low-angle hydraulic flatbeds alongside extended composite race ramps. This setup dramatically extends the transition area, creating a gentle slope that prevents long front overhangs, low splitters, and rocker panels from contacting the deck or the street. Our operators continuously monitor the approach angle during loading.
Never. We operate with a strict zero-metal-contact rule on all wheels and cosmetic parts. We secure your vehicle solely with commercial-grade, multi-ply nylon over-the-tire soft straps. The webbing fastens securely around the rubber tire tread, leaving your painted, polished, or powder-coated rims completely untouched.
We use the vehicle manufacturer’s dedicated tow eye socket, threading the factory tow hook directly into the vehicle’s structural subframe. If the factory eyelet is unavailable, we use synthetic soft bridles placed around approved structural pick points, ensuring the winch cable never presses upward against the bottom of the front bumper.
Yes. We frequently load lowered tuner vehicles, stanced sports cars, and vehicles with failed air suspensions. Our operators carry multi-stage modular ramps to create custom, gradual incline angles that prevent the frame rails, exhaust pipes, and side skirts from bottoming out.
Our dispatch desk is open 24/7/365. Because our trucks operate locally on the North Shore, our average response time to West Vancouver, North Vancouver, and Highway 1 is 20 to 35 minutes depending on traffic and weather conditions.
