📣Here we grow again - Unit 05!

A 2026 Western Star 49X with a
2026 fully galvanized QuickSwap
35K under reach
Single 25K 2 speed winch

You might notice 😉 we decided to go a little bit of a different route with this one..

This one definitely "took a Village" but I think Corey, along with VSF Wraps knocked it out of the park.

Also, thanks to Bryce Weber for another one of his perfect builds, Antrim Western Star for installing all the BTS Lighting and Dual Revolution lights, LRG Heavy Repair for the tear down and reassembly, Guck Busters for making her sparkle ✨and Adrian Penny for being there to capture Willow's reaction 🩷

Does your towing company take the time to chase perfection? Or do they tighten the winch and say "that ain't moving"

When it comes to high value and complex situations, we will always strive to take care of your equipment as if we owned it.

Happy Easter weekend from all of us here at Wayne's! Whether it's transporting giant Easter eggs or a street sweeper or anything in between. Our tandem flatbed is ready to answer the call.

Due to the recent number of collisions involving tow trucks and their operators. We have taken the bold move to re paint the entire fleet to a more visible color.

A wise man once said "Be the change you wish to see in the world"..

As most of you know by now, we were stopped last week during a safety blitz between Ontario Provincial Police - East Region and the MTO. During that inspection they found forward facing amber and red beacon lights on one of our units. These lights were installed on a separate switch for when we face on coming traffic.

What you may NOT know is that we have been working along side Strobe My Ride to find a better, more visible lighting combination to help keep not just our own operators safe, but those all across Ontario.

Although we recognize our errors by having them on the front and even complied by switching them back to amber and white, we will continue to push for change. They had no issue with the rear facing lights, so in my opinion this is a step in the right direction.

Thank you to those who have reposted, commented and messaged us throughout the last few days. Your support means everything!!

Always a pleasure working with OPP, getting the highway reopen and the situation cleaned up is what we do best.

Update: Highway 7 has been cleared and completely reopened.

Ottawa OPP Road Closure Alert:

Officers are currently on the scene of a collision on Highway 7 e/b near Highway 417. A dump truck has rolled over due to icy conditions. The road will be closed temporarily at Hazeldean Rd while the tow attempts to remove the dump truck. This is expected to last several hours. Please plan for an alternate route in the meantime. We will update you once it opens up.

With the upcoming cold snap tomorrow night, we'd like to share some tips.

- Plug your truck in
- Top up your fuel and other fluids to prevent condensation
- Check your batteries
- Have an emergency kit
- Let engine's and hydraulic systems warm up a bit before heavy use
- Drain your air tanks

And if all else fails, keep our number handy and we will take good care of you.
