When the Ice Storm Hits
Atlanta's infamous ice storms—like the 2014 "Snowpocalypse"—can gridlock the city in hours. I-285 becomes a parking lot, and the overpasses on I-75 freeze first. Atlanta Towing Pros has a fleet ready with ice chains and emergency recovery gear.
Winter-Specific Towing Challenges
- Frozen Batteries: Cold snaps drain battery power. We carry jump packs that work in sub-freezing temps.
- Icy Shoulders: Winching a car from an icy embankment requires specialized techniques our operators have mastered.
- Black Ice on Overpasses: The downtown connector's bridges freeze first; we know which routes to avoid.
What to Do If You're Stuck
Stay in your vehicle, turn on hazard lights, and call (470) 458-0080. Our dispatchers will prioritize calls based on danger level. If you have a winter emergency kit (blanket, water, snacks), use it while waiting. Atlanta Towing Pros stages trucks at strategic locations when ice is forecast.
