Default Ins..Haggerty cover towing?

Going to put insurance on car soon so can get it on road- does Haggerty offer towing and if they do, can I insist on towing company that uses flatbed and not the old sling type? I am going to sign up online so can't really get these answers. thanks

Yes Hagerty offers flatbed towing for a nominal charge

I have had Hagerty for about three years on my 68 convert. Had it "towed" three times at no additional cost and they used a flat bed each time.

Thanks All- I went with them today. Very pleasant phone sign up. I went with 60 mile coverage since I won't take long road trips. Price is great. I also just went with 12000 coverage as I'd be doing good to even get that selling outright ( which I might consider this summer- I really want vintage truck rod or old coupe since a 70\71 cuda out of my price range) but for now enjoying the best sport car ever made.

In my area, a would estimate that 90% of the towing is done with flatbeds. I hardly ever see a boom tow truck.

You will also like the Hagerty magazine that is published every two months. Great photos and stories. Regular columns written by Jay Leno and Wayne Carini and a couple others.

Yep, Hagerty towing did it right for me also,,, a rear caliper was dragging and smoking the pads,,, they sent a flatbed, but it was too steep to get my car on it without destroying my front spoiler, so they sent another flat bed with extra ramps and air ride,,, the driver knew his stuff,,, he backed up to my car, rolled back the bed, deflated the air bags on his rig and dropped it on the ground ,added the pre-ramps and my spoiler cleared and away we went,, I was very happy,
