Recovery and Transport Best Practices

Safe preparation and transport of EVs reduce risks throughout the recovery process.
Vehicle Preparation:
• Disable the vehicle following safety protocols.
• Use flat-deck trucks for transport; if unavailable, use dollies to reduce stress on the vehicle.
• Secure the vehicle with non-conductive straps and fire-resistant tarps if fire risks exist.
Monitoring During Transport:
• Continuously monitor the vehicle for signs of thermal runaway, such as smoke or heat.
• Maintain a clear perimeter during transport to mitigate re-ignition risks.
