Overview

Professional Winch-Out in Los Angeles

Controlled Recovery, Not Brute Force

Recovery starts with an assessment of the vehicle, ground, slope, attachment points, and the space available for equipment. Tell dispatch what happened without approaching traffic, unstable ground, floodwater, or other hazards.

From Soft Shoulders to Steep Driveways

A soft shoulder, shallow ditch, or high-centered vehicle can require a controlled recovery plan. Access and ground conditions determine whether the job is suitable. Do not enter floodwater or attempt an improvised pull; explain the scene so dispatch can assess the appropriate response.
