⚠️ JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE A ROLLBACK OR WRECKER DOESN’T MEAN THEY’RE LEGAL. ⚠️

Facebook yard sale pages are full of “I got a guy” and “My buddy has a rollback.” But owning a rollback does not automatically make someone a legitimate towing company.

Before trusting someone with a vehicle worth thousands of dollars, ask questions:

👉 Do they have the proper FOR-HIRE registration/tags to haul vehicles for compensation?
👉 Do they carry proper commercial towing insurance?
👉 Is the business properly registered and operating legally?
👉 Is their equipment properly maintained and insured?
👉 If they damage your vehicle, who is paying for it?

There’s a big difference between owning a rollback and operating a legitimate towing business.

Legitimate towing companies spend hundreds of thousands of dollars every year on commercial insurance, FOR-HIRE registration, equipment, maintenance, licensing and the other expenses required to operate professionally.

That $25 or $50 you saved using somebody from a Facebook yard sale page won’t seem like much when your vehicle is damaged and you discover they weren’t properly insured to begin with.

💡 Know who you’re handing your keys to.

Support the legitimate local businesses that invest in doing things the right way,not just the cheapest person in the Facebook comments with a rollback.

In times like these, it reminds us just how important it is to come together and help our neighbors when they need it most. After the flood, someone needed help getting their shed moved back, and Vinson Construction and Gran Boys Towing were more than happy to lend a hand. No matter how big or small the job may be, communities get through hard times by standing beside one another. We’re praying for every family affected by the flooding and for everyone working hard to recover and rebuild.

Please continue to check on your people, help where you can, and keep our community in your prayers. ❤️

Somewhere beyond the heartbreak, God always leaves a reminder that Heaven gained another angel.

As this rainbow stretched over the church during Waylon’s service, it felt like a quiet sign of peace, love, and promise. While our hearts are heavy and words never feel like enough, we continue praying for everyone who loved him.

Waylon touched so many lives in such a short time, and he will never be forgotten. Please continue to lift his family, friends, and all those hurting during this unimaginable loss. ❤️

Our hearts are absolutely broken over the tragic accident on Hwy 73. From all of us at Gran Boys Towing, we want to send our deepest condolences and prayers to the families and loved ones of the two young men involved.

Waylon was a wonderful young man, and we have known and cared about his family for many years. There are simply no words that can ease the pain of such a heartbreaking loss. Please know your community is grieving with you and praying for strength, comfort, and peace in the days ahead.

Please keep both families, friends, and everyone affected by this tragedy in your prayers. ❤️
