Tow Truck Truck FAQ
What is a rotator wrecker and when is it used?
A rotator wrecker has a 360-degree rotating boom that can reach under, around, and behind obstacles to recover vehicles in any position. It is the most capable and expensive type of wrecker, used for overturned tractor-trailers, vehicles in ditches or embankments, and complex accident recoveries where a standard wrecker cannot reach or reposition effectively.
Do tow truck operators need a special license?
Operating a tow truck over 26,001 lbs GVWR requires a Class B CDL (or Class A if pulling a trailer). Many states require additional tow operator licensing or certification through programs like the Towing and Recovery Association of America (TRAA). Insurance requirements are also significantly higher than standard commercial trucking.
