What is heavy-duty towing, exactly?

When a truck goes down in Chelmsford, MA, the clock starts on driver hours, idle fuel, and a delivery window. The corridors that matter here are I-495, US-3, MA-3 and MA-110.

Road Rescue Network coordinates dispatch to the closest verified rescuer on those routes 24/7, with a confirmed ETA before the truck rolls.

How to choose a rescuer

• Insurance current. GL, auto, workers comp.
• DOT-compliant if they're towing or running service trucks over CDL weight.
• 24/7 dispatch with a real human, not a callback queue.
• Transparent pricing, you should get a confirmed dispatch fee before the truck rolls.
• Local, a service truck 60 miles away isn't going to beat the regional benchmark.
