Maintenance Tips

Preventative maintenance doesn’t slow your fleet, it keeps it moving.

1. Don’t Skip Daily Walkarounds

Why it matters: Your drivers are your first line of defense.
What to check: Leaking fluids, tire pressure, lights, warning indicators, air leaks.
Pro tip: Use a simple checklist. Catching issues early keeps your mobile service bill low.

2. Test Batteries Before They Die

Why it matters: Commercial batteries fail fast under Florida heat.
What to check: Corrosion, slow crank, weak voltage.
Our tip: Test batteries every 3–6 months, especially on older units or parked assets.

3. Stick to PM Intervals Even When It’s Busy

Why it matters: Skipping oil changes or inspections leads to costly failures.
Best practice: Follow OEM schedules for each truck type.
Fleet tip: Book on-site preventative maintenance, no need to pull units off route.

4. Watch Your Air System

Why it matters: Moisture, leaks, and bad governors sideline your brakes.
What to check: Air dryer service dates, audible leaks, pressure build-up time.
What we offer: Mobile air system checks and valve replacements, on site.

5. Grease, Inspect, Repeat

Why it matters: Lubrication failures lead to broken suspensions, seized joints.
Smart move: Schedule monthly lubes and visual inspections on all moving parts.

      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Broke down on the Polk Parkway this morning and had to be towed.  I called Mission Towing and Recovery.  The ladies I spoke with were very friendly and helpful.  I was given an affordable quote and a tow truck was sent immediately.   The driver was very friendly and had my car loaded up in no time.  He also was very careful while loading my car, so as not to make the problem more costly to repair.  Can't say the same for the road ranger that stopped and forced his assistance on me. Thank you Mission towing, for saving me from FHP having me towed.
