Truck drivers don’t have it easy. This job isn’t for everyone, from the risk of being on the interstate roadside to extended road hours. It takes trained individuals to handle the responsibilities and uncertainties of the position. Here at Southside Wrecker, our team is put through extensive training to ensure maximum safety and customer service. Since we strive to provide the best Towing Services in Atlanta, GA, we ensure that everyone who joins our team is appropriately prepared to go above and beyond industry standards. 

Regardless of our drivers’ experience, everyone goes through our in-house training program. This program requires that all participants meet certain criteria rather than a specific time requirement. This ensures that all the trainees are ready to go once it’s time for them to start driving their assigned trucks. 

Our operators have continuing discussions with management and their trainers about their readiness before they go solo. After we sign off on an operator internally, and usually within the first six months, they’re sent for offsite training with organizations such as the Emergency Road Service Coalition of America (ERSCA) or WreckMaster. These programs take training further, providing our drivers with national accreditation and ensuring their preparedness to operate for us. Most of our operators go even further in their training, mastering programs such as SHRP2, Miller Industries Ring Leader Class certification, and HAZWOPER 40 hours. These courses increase safety values, promoting incident management and material awareness skills.

Every minute of our team’s training goes towards the high standards our company upholds. We’ve become the highest-rated towing and transport service in Georgia, and our top-tier team is essential to that success. In short, requiring drivers to attend training throughout their employment ensures that they maintain the high standards of work excellence and safety that Southside Wrecker is known for.
