Beware of Imitations
EZ-Haul Car Tow Dollies are only sold on our official websites. If you don’t purchase directly from us, you may not be receiving an authentic EZ-Haul tow dolly.
Lightweight Yet Durable Construction
Weighing only 380 lb., the EZ-Haul™ tow dolly is significantly lighter than many traditional tow dollies, making it easier to maneuver, position, and store. Despite its lightweight design, this heavy duty tow dolly is built with a rust-resistant steel frame and engineered to transport vehicles with curb weights up to 5,000 lb.
The adjustable ramps allow this tow dolly to accommodate vehicles up to 79" in width, giving you flexibility for different vehicle sizes.
Built with a sturdy frame, this dolly is designed to remain in good shape with proper use and maintenance.
Self-Adjusting Hydraulic Brakes
The EZ-Haul Tow Dolly is equipped with an integrated surge brake actuator and hydraulic disc brakes, providing smooth, proportional braking without the need for a brake controller.
Unlike electric trailer brakes, which require manual adjustments depending on load, these self-adjusting brakes automatically respond to the movement of the tow vehicle. This fully self-contained braking system results in:
- More consistent braking performance
- Reduced maintenance requirements
- Easier setup with no external controls
Maintaining proper tire pressure and brake condition helps ensure optimal performance while towing.
What Are Hydraulic Surge Brakes on a Tow Dolly?
Hydraulic surge brakes automatically apply braking force based on how the tow vehicle slows down. This system improves overall control, enhances safety, and eliminates the need for a separate brake controller, making towing simpler and more reliable.
Stand and Store™ Design
When not in use, this stand up tow dolly can be stored upright to reduce its footprint. This stand up tow dolly design makes it easier to fit into garages, RV lots, or driveways. With the optional casters kit, maneuvering and positioning the dolly in tight storage spaces becomes even more convenient.
This design makes it easier to store the dolly in a garage or keep it parked in tight spaces when not in use.

Important Towing Guidelines
You must check with your automobile’s manufacturer to determine whether your vehicle can be safely towed using this tow dolly. Things to consider:
- Never tow a vehicle with the rear wheels on the tow dolly.
- Your car’s steering wheel must remain unlocked when towing. Even when the steering wheel appears to be unlocked, some automobile steering wheels will lock when turned to the far right or left. To ensure that this does not happen, you may be required to leave the ignition in the accessory position/mode. Check with your automobile’s manufacturer to determine the correct actions to prevent the steering wheel from locking.
- Determine whether your automobile’s transmission should be placed in park or neutral. If the transmission must remain in neutral for towing, then determine the required ignition setting to ensure that the transmission remains in neutral while in tow.
- Some automobiles require that you disconnect a battery terminal to ensure that the automobile remains in neutral and that the steering wheel remains unlocked. You may also be able to accomplish this by removing the ignition fuse. In either scenario, you may lose your automobile’s settings, so you may want to use a memory saver or memory keeper. These plug into your automobile’s 12V power supply/cigarette lighter.
- All-wheel drive automobiles require careful consideration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the advantages of the hydraulic disc brakes on the EZ Haul?
Unlike drum brakes, the EZ Haul’s hydraulic disc brakes offer superior heat dissipation and more consistent stopping power during long descents. This "surge" system is self-contained, meaning you don’t need an electric brake controller installed in your tow vehicle.
Q: Do the ramps on this model stay attached during transit?
The EZ Haul features detachable ramps that are used for loading and then securely stowed on the dolly frame. This prevents the ramps from obstructing the towed vehicle’s undercarriage while in motion and keeps them protected from road debris.
Q: How do I maintain the hydraulic fluid levels for the surge brakes?
The master cylinder is located at the front of the tongue. You should check the fluid level before every trip using standard DOT 3 or 4 brake fluid. Ensuring the reservoir is full is critical for the "surge" mechanism to engage the disc brakes properly.
Q: What is the maximum vehicle width this dolly can accommodate?
The EZ Haul is designed for versatility, featuring an 79-inch width between the fenders. This allows it to carry most full-sized cars and many wider SUVs, provided they do not exceed the gross vehicle weight rating of the dolly.
