Local job behaviour. Distance and route time both matter because traffic and loading can dominate.
Long distance towing is supported
Long trips are not treated like endless city traffic.
If you are moving a vehicle across counties, the request form still works. Tow It uses the actual route, distance tiers, vehicle handling, and adaptive platform commission so longer jobs are priced more realistically.
How the long-distance model thinks about a route
Short local jobs are more sensitive to loading, traffic and response time. On a longer inter-county tow, those factors matter at the beginning, but distance becomes the cleaner signal. That is why the formula separates the first local tier from the longer motorway-style tiers.
Longer transfer behaviour. Distance still counts, but route-time pressure is reduced.
Inter-county behaviour. Distance is the main driver and platform commission becomes more flexible.
Route distance is central
The form uses pickup and destination coordinates, then calculates the route rather than asking you to guess.
Route time is capped by tier
For long trips, route-time billing is linked to the Tier 1 share only. Tier 2 and Tier 3 do not keep adding city-style time pressure.
Commission adapts
The platform margin can reduce on long routes, helping the quote stay closer to the economics of the actual tow.
Compare a normal route model with Tow It long-distance logic
Move the distance and watch how much route time remains billable. This is a simplified visual model, but it shows the principle used by the request form.
100 km
Tier 1 keeps route time. Tier 2 and Tier 3 focus on distance, with adaptive commission as the trip gets longer.

The fastest way to check a long tow is still the request form.
Add pickup, destination and vehicle details. You will see an upfront quote before confirming, and the long-distance logic is already included in the pricing engine.
