Hook Em' Up Towing flatbeds every electric vehicle in Nashville — Tesla Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, Cybertruck, Ford F-150 Lightning, Mustang Mach-E, Rivian R1T and R1S, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and 6, Kia EV6, Lucid Air, Hummer EV, Polestar and more. Every EV manufacturer requires flatbed-only transport with all four wheels off the ground because the motor is permanently coupled to the wheels with no true neutral. Wheel-lift towing an EV can destroy the drive unit, the inverter, or the high-voltage battery — we never take that risk.
Common Nashville EV calls: a Tesla that ran out of charge on I-65 or I-40 between Superchargers, a dead 12V battery that locks the parking brake on a Model 3 or Lightning, a flat tire on a Tesla with no spare, a Rivian or Hummer EV stuck off-road, or collision recovery where the high-voltage pack needs careful isolation. Our operators are trained to wake a dead 12V system, release the parking brake without damaging trim, and load any EV with soft tire straps so nothing touches the battery shield.
30–45 minute response across Davidson County, 24/7. We can flatbed you to the nearest Supercharger, Electrify America, EVgo, dealer, or your home Level 2 charger. Call (615) 756-5330 for EV towing in Nashville.
Electric vehicles like Tesla, Rivian, Ford F-150 Lightning and Chevy Bolt have permanent magnet motors directly connected to the wheels with no neutral disconnect on most models. Towing with wheels on the ground spins the motor as a generator and can overheat or destroy the drive unit, the inverter, or the high-voltage battery. Manufacturers specifically require flatbed transport with all four wheels off the ground. We never wheel-lift or dolly an EV.
Yes. We tow every Tesla model on a flatbed using soft straps over the tires — never chains on the frame or suspension. Our operators know how to put a Tesla into transport mode (or jump the 12V to release the parking brake on a dead car) and how to load low-clearance Model S and Model 3 without scraping the battery shield.
Common problem on Teslas, Mach-Es and Lightnings — the 12V auxiliary battery dies and the car locks the wheels. We carry the right jump packs and access points to wake the low-voltage system, release the parking brake, and winch the vehicle gently onto the flatbed.
We don't carry a DC fast charger on the truck, but we'll flatbed you to the nearest Supercharger, Electrify America, EVgo or your home Level 2 charger anywhere in Davidson County. For most stranded EV drivers a short flatbed to the closest fast charger is faster and cheaper than waiting for a mobile charging rig.
EV towing is priced the same as any flatbed call — it's not a luxury surcharge. Cost depends on distance and time of day. We don't post fixed rates online because every situation is different, but you'll get a transparent quote before we dispatch a truck.
Yes. A Rivian R1T, Hummer EV, F-150 Lightning Extended Range and Cybertruck all sit at or above 7,000 lbs. We dispatch a heavy-rated flatbed for those calls so the deck rating and tie-down points are correct.
Every job we run is guided by four principles that have defined Hook Em' Up Towing since 2010.
"Helpful, responsive, and informational. Car wasn't able to start and they provided me a jump as well as informing me the issue was actually my alternator, not my battery. Gave consistent updates as to estimated arrival and were straightforward with providing a quote. Very understanding of responding to an unexpected issue and were very kind in the process."
"5/5 stars – reliable, fast, and friendly. I called Hook Em' Up Towing when my car broke down and they arrived quickly. The driver was courteous and the tow was handled smoothly. I appreciated the 24-hour towing service and how easy it was to find a tow truck near me. Highly recommend for anyone needing dependable roadside assistance."
"Hook Em' Up Towing provided exceptional service when I needed help late at night. The driver arrived quickly, was incredibly friendly and professional, and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. I especially appreciated the courteous attitude and the clear communication from start to finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, 24-hour towing and roadside assistance."
"Had a great experience with Hook 'em Up. I have a 50 year old Toyota Land Cruiser that is almost done with a full restoration. We had a pipe burst in our home and had to move it out to fix the garage ceiling. They came to the rescue and did a great job moving a very heavy, very fragile antique truck with no brakes from one hilly location to another. They came through even when 2 of their employees called out today. They were careful, respectful and got the job done. They even helped me push the truck up the sloped entrance to the storage unit — great service."
"We had our car towed in the middle of the night for about 3 hours back to our hometown, and the experience was honestly as good as it could possibly be under stressful circumstances. The team was professional, punctual, and incredibly kind. Communication was clear from start to finish, the tow was handled safely, and everything felt calm and well-managed. You can tell these are good people who take pride in their work. Late-night situations like this can be overwhelming, but they made it smooth and reassuring. Really grateful for the service and would 100% recommend them to anyone needing a long-distance tow."
"We had a tire blow on the interstate on an icy February night. Every tire store in the city was closed or out of stock so towing became required. Hook Em Up Towing answered on first call, was there within an hour, and towed our vehicle to our local repair shop in Dickson. I didn't even have to wait for the tow truck. I just left my key where they advised me to during the phone call, and they took care of the rest. The best part? The bill ended up being less than the initial quote! Highly recommend this business."
"Hook 'Em Up Towing provided a quote to tow my vehicle after a few basic questions, and included which stipulations would increase the price. They were realistic about their scheduling abilities, and very communicative regarding an unexpected delay. The driver was capable and got the job done more quickly than I expected, and provided additional information regarding potential car donation. I never expected to call around shopping for tow quotes, but I read area company reviews and made my choice accordingly, and I'm really thankful I did. They were able to provide honest work in a time of need, and much later in the day than I would've expected. Thanks, y'all!"
"My car wasn't towed until twelve hours after I called to schedule, however, the owner was very nice and communicative of the situation, and she called again to apologize for the delay. Service was very friendly, and there were no issues getting my car to its intended destination. Great customer service!"
"Lovely couple that owns the business and extremely helpful. I had no idea what was wrong with my vehicle…they popped the hood and gave their expertise knowledge and were happy to do so!"
"Extremely professional and even diagnosed my problem at the site! Wonderful! Would tow with them again (hopefully not too soon in the future lol!)."
"Had some big issues with my car's engine and needed a tow to my local Hyundai dealership to get the mechanical help I needed. Hook em up was super easy to call and get a truck out within the hour with updates to let me know how far out they were. Very respectful, helpful, and friendly staff arrived to assist in moving my vehicle to the dealership. I highly recommend them and will absolutely let any of my friends know if they are ever in need of towing services."
