Specialized Wrecker Services We Offer
Heavy Vehicle Recovery
We handle the recovery of large vehicles such as buses, box trucks, trailers, and more. Whether it's a rollover, jackknife, or off-road situation, our team has the equipment and experience to recover heavy-duty vehicles safely and efficiently.
Accident Scene Management
Wrecks can be chaotic; we assist first responders and drivers by managing the recovery process with care, removing damaged vehicles, securing the area, and minimizing traffic disruption. Our team ensures all vehicles are handled safely and respectfully.
Winch-Out and Recovery from Difficult Terrain
From muddy shoulders to snowy ditches, we’re trained in off-road vehicle recovery using advanced winching techniques. Our services are ideal for vehicles stuck in snowbanks, soft ground, or other hard-to-reach spots where normal towing is ineffective.

Testimonials
I wish I could remember the name of the driver that picked me up. I’m here from out of town so when my car broke down I was upset and stressed. I had no idea where to bring my car to have it looked at. He was so patient, gave me a great recommendation, and even took a look at my car for me before taking it to the mechanic.

Got a AAA tow and the driver was friendly and helpful. In fact I forgot my iPad in the cab of his truck and the dispatcher notified me that they could bring it to my location ( about 1 hour away) the next time they were headed out since my vehicle was non operational.

We had a simple fix - restart the vehicle but the gentleman was great. Cheerful and early!! I am thankful I have AARP Roadside Service but glad they have Gallagher Trucking to turn a not so good day into a much better day!! Thank you Gallagher Trucking!!

Today, my car broke down right in the city of Plattsburgh at a busy intersection. I called Triple A for a tow, and Gallagher’s was there in less than 20 minutes. They were quick, professional, and super friendly. I am very impressed with my experience with them.
