2004 S500 needs towed

Hi all. I have a 2004 S500 4matic with Airmatic suspension. Went out and the car had lowered itself. The "car to low" light is on and the car won't raise up. I need to have it towed to the shop tomorrow. I'm assuming it will be moved on a flatbed. My question how to load it without damaging it since it is setting so low.
Thanks

You can jack up each of the wheels and place a 2x4 wood block on top of the upper control arm
