About Us

Our drivers are run through a pre-employment drug test as well as enrolled in a random drug testing program. They know that they can be screened for alcohol or drugs at any time. In addition to an extinsive background screening check which is ran thru the Department of Justice.

We have seven (7) Class "A" trucks and a service truck. All of our trucks have a GPS (Global Positioning System) attached to them. With this system we are able to find the truck at anytime, day or night. It also allows us to see if the driver has been speeding. We can even see if he/she performs a tow and at what time. This system will also tell us if the driver made any un-authorized stops while towing a customer's vehicle.

We at Anderson's Towing have been performing our own vehicle inspections for over fifteen (15) years now. The driver performs a daily and weekly inspection, while a supervisor performs a detailed monthly inspection, comparable to the Highway Patrol's yearly inspection.

Our trucks are stocked with additional added equipment that is not required. Some of those items are: an attachment for towing 5th wheel travel trailers; specialty damage-free motorcycle towing equipment; added recovery equipment; specialized block and tackle for manipulating vehicles on the bed of a truck; equipment designed to move a completely locked up vehicle without causing damage; and specialized straps for towing highline automobiles damage-free, to name a few.

In July of 2007 "Towing and Recovery Footnotes" did a wonderful article on ourselves. Below you will find the link to it. The article is on pages 7 thru 9.

A BUSINESS WITH A FAMILY FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE

Training is an area that Anderson's Towing prides itself on. We feel we set ourselves apart from others in this area. We don't claim to be the best when it comes to training, just in the same group as the best.

It is a common practice in the industry to train a driver by letting him/her ride around with a seasoned driver for a few days, then assigning a truck to that driver. We feel that practice is highly hazardous and not acceptable. When new employees begin work, they are trained by more then one supervisor and for a period of not less then two weeks. That

is just for the basic tows. We are also fond of video training, in which we have 16. These range from 30 minutes to two hours in duration.

We train our employees to be neat in appearance and to maintain a clean tow truck. Direct hands-on training is done regularly. No employee is allowed to tow a vehicle until they have signed off for a specific area of training. We also offer a computer simulated recovery program. Every six months they must re-read and sign off on a variety of training manuals that we created or other various training aids. Drivers are also sent to a California Tow Truck Association training class, where he/she is certified by an outside agency for their ability to operate a tow truck.
