Q: Do you provide power unit swap outs?

Yes. We can assist with power unit swaps — dropping the disabled tractor and facilitating the connection of a replacement. We also handle recovery of abandoned rigs. Give us a call with the details of your situation and we'll dispatch the right equipment and personnel to get your load moving again.

Q: Can you recover a tractor-trailer that has rolled over?

Yes. Our team has the heavy-duty wrecker equipment and the trained operators to handle complex recovery situations, including overturned semis and jackknifed rigs. These are high-stakes operations that require careful planning and execution, and we approach them with the seriousness and expertise they demand. Safety of our crew, your equipment, and other motorists is always the top priority.

Q: Do you tow tractor-trailers?

Yes — this is one of our specialties. We work closely with both independent owner-operators and national trucking companies. When your rig goes down, every minute off the road costs you money. That's why we prioritize fast response and efficient service to get your truck to the nearest capable repair facility as quickly as possible, with minimal downtime.

Q: I was in an accident – can you tow my car from the scene?

Yes. Accident recovery and towing is one of our core services. Once law enforcement has cleared you to move the vehicle, call us and we'll dispatch a truck immediately.
