So recently my wife and I decided to make the move from the crazy housing market we live in (RI/MA) and move to NC. I currently work for AAA Northeast as a Roll back and just wanted to get a feel for the water down there. Oddly enough AAA Northeast and AAA Carolinas don't do transfers so I am kind of left to see what happens when I move down there. Anyone know of or work with AAA in NC that maybe could toss me some info we were looking at the Jacksonville area but depending on jobs that may change.

Awesome suggestions I am glad I asked because I was spending tons trying to find a decent glove. I ordered a pair of the Kinco gloves so lets see how that goes.

So I have tried VGO, Snap on, Mechanics etc and my gloves don't last over 2 months. I have only been doing this job for 6 months and I am shocked how many gloves I go through. Any suggestions

@GRUMPS The Towman Yeah AAA is very mundane but lately I been getting all accident calls due to the recent snow which has been amazing. Yourself and a few others commented on my skates question and these WreckMaster skates are amazing. Being a bit old (35) and getting into this industry its a good start. But once I feel ready I will take the next step into another company or something bigger. If anybody has more advice for me or things I can do please let me know.

Amazing job awesome recovery and even better scene clean up above and beyond.

So just to update this post a bit, myself and mainly the wife decided it was better towing for a bigger company. I been towing for AAA (insert laughs here) but in honesty its been amazing and will stick with them until a better towing opportunity comes around. I am currently, if things work out with covid about to get my CDL A in 3 weeks. I know that wont help me with AAA but its something the VA offered and why not. I start training in wrecker in about 3 months so till then I am in flatbed which I love. I have posted around here about equipment etc... @GRUMPS The Towman I got those Wreck Master skates and loving them. I have only been in this industry for a short while and am loving it and have also seen its a great point for veterans so been spreading the word. This forum is key to my choices and what I ended up doing which I feel was due to all you guys: @goodmichael @nousdef @towtruckAJ you guys are awesome thank you so much for the guidance.

New England here hope 2021 is a better year

@GRUMPS The Towman, @KY Nick, @someotherplace thank you so much for the amazing input I bought some wreckmaster skates they come in this Wednesday. Feedback from all of you was very important to me.

No slamming companies here just looking at suggestions so today I was using ITI skates to get a Mercedes (no override) off my bed after using soap, PB etc... thing would not move. I then snatch blocked it and got it off that way but was wondering if investing in new skates are worth it. I have been looking at WreckMaster but would like more opinions.
