Another scorching day on the job, but the heat didn't slow us down! ☀️🚛

​We got called out to handle a load shift today. After getting everything restacked, secured, and double-checked, we had a happy driver back on the road in no time.

​Safety first, downtime minimal. That’s how we roll! 🛠️💪

🚨 Friendly reminder to ALWAYS pop those brakes! 🚨
​So, this happened today: a driver forgot to set his parking brake while parked at the fuel pump. While he was still hanging out in the sleeper berth, the truck decided to take an unscheduled trip down an embankment! 🚛💨

​Luckily, we were able to get on scene and successfully recover both the truck and trailer with zero additional damage. Even better? The driver was able to roll right on out under his own power.

​No injuries, no crushed freight, and no extra damage—just a very lucky break, a wild story for the road, and a strong reminder to double-check those yellow and red k***s before you kick off your boots.

​Stay safe out there, drivers! 🛑👇

🚨 Late-Night Heavy Recovery on Highway 271 🚨

​Our crew was dispatched to Pattonville on US-271 after a driver struck multiple cows in the roadway.

​Large animal collisions can cause severe damage fast, but we were able to respond quickly, clear the highway, and get the truck safely towed to where it needed to go.

​⚠️ Safety Driver Reminder: Livestock on rural roads can happen without warning, especially after dark. Please slow down, stay alert, and drive with extra caution through rural stretches!

🚨 SOMETIMES, EVEN THE RESCUERS NEED A RESCUE! 🚨

​​These brave men and women put their lives on the line for our community every single day without hesitation. Whether it's fighting fires, responding to emergencies, or keeping Paris safe, their dedication is unmatched. So when one of their heavy-duty rigs needed a lift, we were honored to answer the call and get them back in action. 🚒🔥

A couple of weeks ago we showcased the newest addition to our fleet—Unit 61. Today, she is demonstrating exactly why we invested in her, safely transporting this limousine.

​While a vehicle of this size can occasionally fit on standard equipment, the extended bed length and increased weight capacity of Unit 61 allow our team to utilize optimal tie-down and strapping points.

​When it comes to long-haul transport, precision and safety are our top priorities. 🤝
