A lot more options other than just doing file_get_contents() and trying to catch all the errors.

Curl proved to be faster for some reason, when I tried GuzzleHttp for url grabbing with parameters I ran into issues like you so i used curl . can you try this:
$ch = curl_init ( $url );
curl_setopt( $ch , CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt( $ch , CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$raw=curl_exec( $ch );
curl_close ( $ch );
// $raw has the file, do what ever you want with it.
If you run into time out issues, try to increase the value a little bit in the right places.
Edit: Curl proved to be faster over file_get_content( )

@mehany but using curl_exec sometimes brings the value of $url to null

Looks like they have protection on their server for crawlers.

Assume you want an HTML for google home page to get saved locally:
$contents = file_get_contents('www.google.com');
Storage::disk('local')->put('google.html', $contents);
Look up Laravel Storage facade documentation for details on disk configuration and put method.

Yes many years later I know :) just wanted to share
The one key thing here for me is being able to test the code. Using Laravel newer https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/http-client I can then use it like this
Http::get($follower->profile_pic_url)->body();
Which looks like this to get the file and save
$contents = Http::get($follower->profile_pic_url)->body();
Storage::disk("local")->put($path, $contents);
and then mock it in a test
Storage::shouldReceive("disk->exists")->once()->andReturn(false);
Storage::shouldReceive("disk->put")->once();
Http::shouldReceive("get->body")->once();
