Will my insurance cover this?

Most comprehensive and collision policies cover post-accident towing as part of the claim. Call your insurer right after the tow; they will reimburse or pay direct. You get a detailed invoice with the scene location, reason for the tow, and destination - exactly what adjusters need.

How do winch-outs work?

When a vehicle slides off the road, the operator uses the wrecker's integrated winch to pull it back onto the pavement. A clean pull off a soft shoulder is quick. A vehicle deep in standing water or hung up on a steep bank takes careful anchor work and rigging, and takes considerably longer. The driver explains what they see and what they plan to do before starting.
