For New Berlin drivers the promise is simple: loaded flat, wheels off the ground, strapped by the tires. MKE Towing & Recovery never drags an AWD car on a wheel-lift or hooks a chain to the body.

The question every driver asks
The whole point of a flatbed is that your vehicle rides fully on the deck — all four wheels off the ground. We winch it aboard, secure it with soft straps and wheel nets over the tires, and load the deck level — never a wheel-lift on an AWD driveline, never a hook-and-chain on the body. It arrives exactly as it left.
Local to New Berlin
Below is the local picture drivers ask about on the phone: New Berlin’s roads and corridors, its winter conditions, and the real number for how fast we reach New Berlin Industrial Park, Moorland Road (CTH-O) corridor, and National Avenue (CTH-ES) corridor.
Trouble spots, in order: I-43 (the Rock Freeway) across the city's southeast, worst near the Moorland Road, Racine Avenue / County Y and National Avenue interchanges (Exits 57, 54 and 59), mornings 7–9 and afternoons 4–6. Truck volume: heavy commercial rigs concentrate around the New Berlin Industrial Park in the city's north. Surface arterials — most of them county trunk highways — carry the rest: Moorland Road (CTH-O), National Avenue (CTH-ES), West Cleveland Avenue (CTH-D), Greenfield Avenue (WIS-59) and Racine Avenue (CTH-Y). The signalized choke points cluster on Moorland at Cleveland and at Grange; several big arterial crossings (Barker & Greenfield, Moorland & Beloit, Calhoun & Beloit) are uncontrolled or stop-controlled.
~12 road miles from our South Side yard, with coverage across Milwaukee & Waukesha counties. Live ETA confirmed on the call.
Your choice of destination — the New Berlin-area corridors we run to daily include:
Dealer, body shop, repair shop, or your own driveway — tell dispatch on the call and the flat price is set before we load.
EVs are climbing fast across the metro, with Tesla Superchargers and public chargers from downtown to the far suburbs. Most electric vehicles can’t be flat-towed on their wheels, and a dead-battery EV often won’t shift to neutral — so it rides flat, winched aboard, with the drive motor protected.
Tight downtown parking structures and the ramps around the Third Ward and the lakefront are unforgiving on lowered, luxury, and exotic cars — we bring skates, dollies, and a low-angle approach so the load is clean, not a scrape.
Lake Michigan sits roughly 13 miles east, which buys New Berlin some relief from direct lake-effect snow — not immunity, and less than the lakeshore suburbs get. Heavy snow still lands. Freeze-thaw cycles still chew pavement. Morning fog settles along the I-43 and Moorland Road corridors. Baseline: humid continental, the inland southeastern Wisconsin standard — cold winters heavy with snow, warm and humid summers.
From November through March the call sheet fills with cold-weather no-starts, dead batteries, and salt-slick roads. A flatbed loads a car that won’t start, shift, or steer without dragging it a single foot. On I-43, WIS-59, and WIS-24 that means a lot of cold-morning deck loads across New Berlin.

When you need a flatbed in New Berlin
An AWD Subaru, a dropped coupe, and a dead-battery EV all need to ride flat, but each loads a little differently. Pick yours and we’ll show how it goes on the deck — the same call the dispatcher makes so the right gear rolls to New Berlin ready.
A Subaru, a crossover, a 4WD pickup — flat-towing on the wheels or a wheel-lift can chew the transfer case or differential. We load it fully onto the flatbed so every wheel is off the ground and the drivetrain never turns.
Send the right truck — call nowIs this you right now?
Whatever quit — fuel, spark, tire, or driveline — on I-43, WIS-59, and WIS-24 or in town, we reach you fast and load the car flat so the day stops getting worse.
All-wheel-drive is standard issue in New Berlin winters, and all of it rides the deck — loaded level, secured by the wheels, drivetrain untouched.
A Tesla or any EV rides flat — winched aboard if the battery’s dead and it won’t shift to neutral, drive motor protected the whole way.
A dropped coupe or a low exotic near New Berlin Industrial Park, Moorland Road (CTH-O) corridor, and National Avenue (CTH-ES) corridor gets a shallow load angle — deck to the ground, wheel nets over the tires, nothing scraped and nothing on the bodywork.
Private seller, auction lot, or dealer floor: the New Berlin pickup rides home level on the deck with soft straps and wheel nets, no miles added to the odometer.
Seized engine, dead battery, locked transmission, or no key. We ramp or winch it onto the deck — it doesn’t need to run.

Almost always, yes. An EV or any AWD/4WD car can't be safely flat-towed on the wheels — the motor or drivetrain can be damaged — so it rides fully on the flatbed. We carry the gear to load a dead-battery EV that won't shift to neutral, whether it's dead in a Costco or Target lot or on a Moorland Road curb. Call (414) 279-5510.
