    I was half owner in a auto repair shop and I used to see the cars come in on the hook and I told myself that is something I should look into cause it doesn't take a rocket scientist to operate a rollback so I bought a 2000 Freightliner and eventually got on with the police for the non preference tows and the rest is history. The police tows are my bread and butter but I love to scrap out cars for what I call the "down and dirty" stuff that is easy to remove like batteries cats and wheels. Only bad thing is I'm a one man show so I don't have a life anymore and my free time is very limited and even if I hear of a good deal I can't leave town cause if I miss a tow then that scrap car I might be picking up all of a sudden gets real expensive. Ideally it would be great to hire somebody to work for me but I just can't seem to make that leap and take on all the paperwork that I don't have to deal with now as a sole owner. This website has really opened my eyes to all the ways to make the most of what cha got and how I know I've been letting good money get by me.
