Not all tow trucks are created equal—and when you’re dealing with commercial breakdowns, winch outs, or off-road recoveries, using the wrong truck can delay the job or make the situation worse.
That’s why KPI Towing’s investment in a diverse fleet—including 16-ton, 20-ton, 25-ton, and 35-ton trucks—is a major advantage for customers in Pensacola and across Escambia County.
Here’s how our tonnage flexibility helps us respond faster, recover vehicles safely, and handle any heavy-duty towing scenario you throw at us.
⚖️ What Tonnage Means in Towing
Tow truck “tonnage” refers to the rated lifting and pulling capacity of a tow truck’s recovery system. The higher the tonnage, the more power and stability the truck has for lifting, pulling, or winching large vehicles.
🔧 The Power of a Mixed Fleet
✅ 35-Ton Trucks
-
For loaded semis, rollovers, bus recovery, and large equipment
-
Used in extreme recoveries or where high-angle winching is required
-
Often deployed on highways like I-10, I-110, and Hwy 29
✅ 25-Ton Trucks
-
Commonly used for swap outs, RV towing, and off-road winch outs
-
Perfect for mid-weight commercial jobs and fleet recoveries
✅ 20-Ton Trucks
-
Ideal for box trucks, dump trucks, and equipment trailers
-
Great option when power is needed, but a smaller footprint is preferred (urban areas, tight job sites)
✅ 16-Ton Trucks
-
For passenger vehicles, light-duty recovery, and parking lot incidents
-
Offers precision handling and access to areas with low clearance or narrow entries
🧠 Why This Matters to You
With a mixed fleet, KPI Towing can:
-
Send the right truck for your exact situation—no underpowered units or overkill equipment
-
Respond faster because we’re not waiting for a single heavy wrecker to become available
-
Recover safely with minimal risk to your vehicle, trailer, or load
-
Operate in any environment—tight city streets, rural roads, muddy job sites, or busy highways
In short, it allows us to custom-fit our recovery plan to your needs, not force your situation to fit our equipment.

❓FAQ
How do I know what tonnage my recovery needs?
You don’t have to. Just describe the vehicle and situation, and we’ll dispatch the right truck from our fleet.
Do you charge more for higher-tonnage trucks?
Pricing is based on job type and vehicle size, not just tonnage. We match your need to the most efficient truck to save you time and money.
Can you recover vehicles from tight or off-road areas?
Absolutely. Our smaller-tonnage trucks can reach tighter areas, and our larger units handle the most extreme recoveries.
