When heavy equipment fails, everything comes to a halt. Roadside breakdowns, jobsite shutdowns, or machines stalled on delivery routes are situations that require immediate action. Around Rake, Iowa, and beyond, companies relying on cranes, loaders, or backhoes can’t afford to lose a day waiting. Harsh weather, soft shoulders, or tight site layouts only add to the challenge.
Our wreckers and rotators can easily recover loads of up to 50 tons, and our operators will handle both the equipment’s weight and the environmental conditions. When you call, we bring muscle, sure. But we also bring experience that’s specific to moving machines out of mud, gravel, grass shoulders, and everything you need in between. From combines stuck during spring thaw to cranes sidelined by soft soil, we’ve recovered it all–and we always show up ready.

Timing is everything—especially when machines need to move. Project managers and contractors often face critical deadlines that involve moving heavy machinery as part of the plan. However, logistical issues such as unavailable trailers or delayed drivers can quickly create bottlenecks. Adding oversized loads or rural delivery points, and moving earthmovers or generators, becomes more than just a headache.
T & W Towing tows equipment using landolls, lowboys, step decks, and rollback trailers selected to match the machine. Tracked, wheeled, oversized, or static: we’ve moved it. Every haul begins with a weight check, routing review, and a plan for offload. You won’t have to manage separate crews or guess at clearance issues. One call covers it, and we provide the right trailer, a trained operator, and a tailored timeline to make it happen.
You can’t roll a storage tank down a gravel road. From grain dryers that sit unmoved for years to concrete forms bolted into place, some equipment doesn’t come quietly. In and around Rake, rural operations often rely on heavy, non-wheeled machines that weren’t designed to be mobile, but still need to be moved occasionally. No matter if you’re clearing a site for the next phase or hauling off equipment that’s outlived its purpose, lifting becomes the only way forward.
But we’re the heavy machinery towing service you can trust. Our expert team at T & W Towing delivers tailored transport services for all types of industrial equipment. We utilize 5-winch rotator units and loading systems that enable the routine lifting and moving of heavy or non-wheeled machines. Our hauling methods are carefully structured to minimize load stress and ensure balance, thereby reducing risks along the way. With secure tie-downs and experienced drivers, your machinery arrives safely and ready to work.
T & W Towing always sends heavy-duty wreckers, winching systems, and rotator units to handle on-site recovery fast. Our crews know how to approach equipment that’s off-camber, sunk, or just wedged where it shouldn’t be. We secure, lift, and transport it if needed—clearing the area and getting your operation up and running again. In fields, job sites, or rural roadside pullouts, we provide the recovery gear that gets the job done.
