AMA Towing & Recovery LLC provides short-distance hauling throughout Hickory and surrounding areas using secure tie-down methods and equipment designed for careful handling.

If you need a vehicle moved within Hickory or nearby, reach out to discuss your timeline and drop-off location.

What Happens During a Local Haul

The driver arrives at your location in Hickory with a flatbed or appropriate hauling equipment based on the size and type of vehicle or machinery being moved. The vehicle is positioned on the bed, secured with straps at multiple anchor points, and checked before departure to confirm nothing shifts during transit. You receive confirmation when the load is secured and again when it arrives at the destination.

After the haul is complete, the vehicle is unloaded in the location you requested, whether that's a driveway, shop bay, or storage lot. The straps are removed, the bed is lowered carefully, and the vehicle is placed where it can be accessed without obstruction. You'll notice the vehicle arrived in the same condition it left, with no added mileage or exposure to road conditions it wasn't ready for.

This service does not include mechanical repairs, diagnostics, or storage beyond the drop-off point. It covers the physical movement of the vehicle from one address to another within the local service area. If the destination requires special access or has restricted hours, it helps to mention that when you schedule so the driver can plan accordingly.

Questions About Moving a Vehicle Locally

Most people calling about local hauling want to know how long it takes, what kind of vehicles can be moved, and whether the service works for non-running cars. Here are answers to the questions that come up most often before booking.

What types of vehicles can you haul locally?
You can haul cars, trucks, motorcycles, ATVs, small tractors, and other equipment that fits securely on the bed. If the vehicle doesn't run or has flat tires, it can still be loaded and moved without issue.
How long does a local haul take in Hickory?
Most local hauls within Hickory or to nearby towns take between thirty minutes and two hours, depending on distance and road conditions. You'll receive an estimated arrival time once the vehicle is loaded and in transit.
When should I use local hauling instead of driving the vehicle?
You should use hauling when the vehicle isn't safe to drive, doesn't have current registration, or you don't have someone available to drive it. It's also useful when moving a vehicle to storage or between properties without adding mileage.
How is the vehicle secured during transport?
The vehicle is secured with heavy-duty straps attached to the frame or axle at multiple points on the flatbed. The straps are tensioned and checked before the truck moves, and the load is monitored throughout the trip.
What do I need to provide before the haul?
You need to provide the pickup address, drop-off address, and any access details such as gate codes or narrow entry points. If the vehicle has special handling needs, mention those when you call to schedule.
