Behind the Wheel of Something That Matters

We're looking for an experienced Heavy-Duty Tow Driver to operate our wreckers, rollbacks, and recovery vehicles (26,000+ lbs GVWR).

• Navigating by map and GPS, plotting routes, and following dispatch instructions
• Working closely with the dispatch team to keep jobs moving
• Following all safety procedures, traffic laws, and accident protocols
• Inspecting and maintaining company vehicles and equipment
• Documenting every job accurately in Tow Book
• Handling hazardous and non-hazardous material disposal as needed
• Keeping your truck clean, presentable, and road-ready
• Flagging any tractor/trailer/tanker issues to management immediately
