Accounts are key
Rotation
Roadside Assistance Members (AAA, Cross Country, etc)
Property Management companies
Dealerships
Parking Garages
Banks (repos)
Transportation (ebay)
Think what your core business will be (towing, transportation, wrecker service, roadside) and outfit your fleet to meet those needs. You definitely need a flatbed, if you will be doing impounds, or have alot of parking garages in the area a wheel lift will help. If you plan on trying to get on the rotation list the local authorities will have a list of items they require any truck called to the scene to have. They will also have specific storage needs.
There is definitely money to be made, how much depends on the area you offer service in and how established the tow company is. If you are looking to be an independent 1 truck solo operation, you may have to hustle 24/7.
Its a fun job, and you get to meet different people and work in the elements, but like many jobs out there it can be feast to famine overnight.
