Our fleet tows vehicles of all sizes, from cars, SUVs, and vans to tractor trailers, buses, and construction equipment. Every call is dispatched with the right truck for the job, not simply the closest one. That decision alone is the difference between a clean recovery and a second round of damage.

Heavy Duty Towing and Recovery: Our heavy duty wrecker service handles the largest and most complicated jobs in the region: semi truck towing, tractor trailer towing, and heavy truck towing for dump trucks, garbage trucks, and tractors. When a truck goes over, our air cushion recovery system lifts and rights it with minimal additional damage to the vehicle or the cargo. If it can be recovered, we have the equipment and the crew to recover it.

Tractor Trailer Breakdown Service: A shut down rig is lost revenue for every hour it sits. We respond to tractor trailer breakdowns around the clock, and because we repair as well as tow, a breakdown that would normally mean a tow and a long wait can often end in the same visit.

RV, Camper, and Bus Hauling: This is where A1 stands apart. Our state-of-the-art VersaMAXX trailer hauls RVs, campers, motor coaches, and commercial buses of all sizes, handling recreational vehicles and equipment up to 53 feet long with a capacity of 50 tons. Low deck RV hauling keeps your coach riding level and secure rather than dragged behind a wrecker with the drivetrain at risk. We are one of the only providers offering this service with equipment this advanced. If you have been told your RV or bus cannot be moved, call us before you accept that answer.

Equipment Hauling and Transport: Lowboy and Landoll hauling for heavy equipment, construction machinery, and oversized loads throughout the Charlottesville area. Tell us the machine, the weight, and the pickup point, and we will tell you exactly what it takes to move it.

Light Duty and Specialty Towing: Not every job needs a heavy wrecker. Flatbed towing for vehicles that should not touch the pavement, wheel lift towing for tight lots and narrow streets, and low clearance towing sized for parking garages where a standard flatbed will not fit. We also handle exotic car towing and motorcycle towing, with the right straps and tie down points rather than an improvised setup.

We provide towing and roadside assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

A1 is a full service heavy duty repair shop, not just a towing company. The same certified team that recovers your truck can also fix it, which means fewer handoffs, one point of contact, and less downtime.

Diesel Engine Repair and Diagnostics Our skilled technicians diagnose and correct most issues to get you back on the road as quickly as possible. Diesel engine repair, diesel diagnostics, air brake service, tractor trailer repair, and scheduled maintenance that keeps trucks in service and out of the breakdown lane.

Mobile Truck Repair and Road Service Breakdowns do not keep business hours, and they rarely happen somewhere convenient. Our mobile repair team brings the shop to your rig with road service for trucks and trailers, so a problem that used to mean a tow and a two day wait can often be handled where you sit. If we can fix it there, we will. If it needs to come in, we already have the truck to bring it.

Truck Tire Sales, Installation, and Mobile Tire Service Heavy duty truck tire sales and installation for tractor trailers, dump trucks, buses, and RVs, plus mobile heavy duty truck tire service and tractor trailer tire service that comes to you on the roadside or at your yard.

Custom Hydraulic Hoses Made In-House A blown hose can shut down a truck, a dump body, or an entire job site. We make custom hydraulic hoses and fittings in-house, usually while you wait. No waiting on a parts order, and no driving across the state for a specialty fitting.
