Being a tow truck operator is NOT about having a 9-to-5 job where you can clock out on-time everyday, go home to your family, eat a hot meal the moment it hits the dining room table, getting a good nights sleep and starting over again tomorrow.
Being a tow truck operator is a LIFESTYLE and personal choice, plain and simple. You work crazy-ass hours -day AND night, rarely eat off of a real dinner plate and spend more time in your truck than you do with your family -missing birthdays, date nights, school events and the countless other everyday happenings in ones' life.
REAL tow truck operators are 110% committed, hard working, loyal, driven, dedicated, reliable, determined and team players. They are the hero's of the road -in what quite possibly is one of the most dangerously underrated and thankless professions out there. It takes a very special kind of person to want to help others the way a tow truck operator does. This lifestyle is definitely not for everyone.
When you put your life on the line for others, you do it knowing that the vast majority of the time, those you help have no understanding, compassion or gratitude for you or the sacrifices made when they need you. Whether it's a simple lock-out after their workday is over, towing their vehicle after and accident while their on vacation or at 2a.m. to change their flat tire after having just laid your head down from a long day only 20 minutes earlier. The only solace you have is knowing what the past minutes, hours and days have brought and you pray that your significant other understands because when you have to climb back into that truck, their unconditional love and support becomes almost as important as the air you breathe.
This line of work is very challenging -not only for the tow truck operator, but for their families as well. If you can’t live up to the lifestyle and/or your family isn't supportive of you 110% of the time, you're not gonna last in this profession.
Only a very few understand the passion and the adrenaline-fueled rush one gets when they walk the thin white line -light bars flashing orange (warning us all to slow down/move over), dodging heavy metal, while only wearing reflective stripes on a dark uniform and sending a quick prayer above to return home to their families safe and alive.

YOU CALL US TOW TRUCK DRIVERS. You call us in your time of need. You call us because you have nowhere else to turn. Weather you car won’t start or you locked your keys inside or you break down you call us in a panic. At that moment we are your concern, the only person you want to be there for you. We come fix you up and then just that quick we are but a distant memory. Let me take a minute of your time to tell you what we are.

We are not tow truck drivers, we are towing operators. We go through extensive training for the services that we perform. You think that our day consists of going from car to car to car towing breakdowns, jumping batteries, and unlocking doors. Yes that is PART of it, but there is much more than that.
Being a towing operator is a lifestyle, not a job. That means there is no 9-5, no making plans for a dinner date or a last minute movie. We come to work and we go home at the end of our shift SOMETIMES. Other times we stay for double or triple shifts. We get called in all hours of the night weather just getting home from a shift or at 1am for accidents or massive recovery operations that take 10-15 hours or more to complete at times. We see things that most people would never ever want to see. We go through emotional and stressful situations constantly. We don’t get 3 meals a day. Sometimes we are lucky if we eat once a day. We work in the harshest of conditions from sweltering heat to bitter cold, In the sun, mud, slush, snow and pouring rain. We risk our lives on the sides of highways with traffic blowing by us at 80-120 km's per hour everyday. And we know that each time we step out of our truck it’s a gamble. One towing operator is killed every 6 days in this profession. That’s an average of one operator per week! If you see flashing lights on the side of the road slow down, move over if you can and give us room. Did you know there is a monument is Tennessee called the wall of the fallen strictly dedicated to towing operators? Yes you may see different company names on the sides of trucks but we are a brotherhood, a family. We help each other. When we see another operator on the side of the road we pull over behind them to offer protection for them to give them a better chance of going home to their loved ones that day. Weather we personally know them or not we do it.
So the next time you call for a tow truck or a service truck remember these things. Say thank you, be polite and know that we WILL get you taken care of and back home to your loved ones.
We do this because we have a passion to help people. We are towing operators.

Be safe out there.
