We are deeply grateful for our Service Providers who have never stopped hustling these past 18 months. They are first responders, showing up 24/7 rain or shine when our customers need them. Often putting themselves in harm’s way to do their job. We recognize that today, more than ever, this industry is facing the significant strain of managing the overhead costs of increasing insurance premiums and sophisticated equipment maintenance, in addition to battling the unique labor shortages of 2021. To help support this valued community of towers, and the essential work you do, Agero has launched a weekly summer sweepstakes rewarding dedicated Owners, Di…

For more than 50 years, the U.S. Small Business Administration has celebrated National Small Business Week, and this year that week is dedicated to September 13-17. It’s a time to recognize the small businesses that play a central role in building a strong country, prepared for any obstacles in the future. Did you know that more than half of Americans either own or work for a small business? And they create nearly two out of every three new jobs in the U.S. each year? National Small Business Week gives small businesses like my towing business a chance to let customers and supporters know why they do what they do. And it’s a chance to say thank you to the people who keep…

It’s hard to put this into words after owning the company for 39 years and me working in it for 22 with Steve, as of tomorrow Schmit towing has been sold. Steve will still be working there because he wouldn’t know what else to do with himself at least for quite some time but a new chapter in our lives is starting. I’ll probably just hang out in Florida. Here’s to us and to Steve and Schmit Towing!

From Geri Roskopf's Blog: When it comes to joining a state or national towing association, over the years I’ve heard the question, “What’s in it for me? What do I get by being a member?” We all can become frustrated when we believe issues or concerns are not being addressed or resolved fast enough by our towing associations. I believe communication is the key, but also, what, as a member, is your responsibility to the association? Do you keep up-to-date on issues that concern the towing and recovery industry? Do you ask questions about things you don’t understand or need clarification on? Do you give your thoughts, opinions — and maybe …

From Geri Roskopf's Blog: On August 12, 2021, the Yankees and the White Sox played the first major league baseball game at the real Field of Dreams in Dyersville, Iowa. The baseball field was copied from the 1989 movie Field of Dreams, in which Iowa farmer Ray Kinsella is inspired by a voice he hears in his cornfield telling him: “If you build it, he will come.” Ray begins the quest of turning his ordinary cornfield into a baseball field where dreams can come true. This story reminded me of the how the International Towing and Recovery Hall of Fame & Museum was created. As the museum’s website states: “It all started more than 20 years ago whe…
