Towing Services
We provide comprehensive towing solutions for all vehicle types, from compact cars to heavy commercial trucks. Our fleet includes light, medium, and heavy-duty tow trucks equipped with state-of-the-art wheel lift systems and flatbeds for damage-free transport. Specialized equipment like 75-ton rotators and lowboy trailers enable us to handle oversized loads and complex recovery situations. Our TRAA-certified operators ensure safe, efficient towing for both routine and emergency situations.
Emergency Recovery
Our emergency recovery team responds to incidents 24 hours a day with specialized equipment for challenging situations. We handle rollovers, jackknifed trailers, and heavy equipment recovery using air-cushion systems and hydraulic tools. With rapid response times and collaboration with local authorities, we minimize scene time while maintaining safety standards. Our technicians work closely with police and transit agencies to resolve complex recovery scenarios efficiently.
Mobile Road Service
Our mobile service fleet provides immediate roadside assistance at your vehicle's location. Equipped with welding equipment, air compressors, and diagnostic tools, technicians perform repairs ranging from flat tire changes to fuel delivery. This service reduces downtime by addressing issues on-site rather than towing to a facility. We serve commercial fleets and individual motorists with customized dispatch solutions and real-time GPS tracking.
Full-Service Repair Shop
Our 20,000 sq ft repair facility handles comprehensive maintenance and repairs for all vehicle types. ASE-certified technicians use state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to perform services from routine maintenance to major engine overhauls. The shop features drive-on dynamometers for inspections and a complete parts inventory with manufacturer warranties. We specialize in diesel emissions testing and heavy-duty truck repairs with dedicated service bays.
Equipment Hauling
We transport specialized equipment ranging from construction machinery to agricultural vehicles using purpose-built trailers. Our fleet includes 8 lowboys and refrigerated trailers for temperature-sensitive cargo. Operators follow strict tie-down protocols to ensure secure transport of oversized loads across state lines. This service supports industries requiring reliable movement of heavy machinery with proper licensing and insurance coverage.
