WE'RE HIRING A RECOVERY OPERATOR

Last night, while most people were asleep, Our owner was standing on the bank of a body of water planning how to safely recover a submerged vehicle.

There isn't a GPS that tells you how to do that.

No app.

No button to push.

It takes judgment, mechanical aptitude, and the ability to stay calm when the situation is anything but.

When the recovery was complete, the officers on scene complimented the professionalism and skill involved. That's something we're proud of.

This is why we don't just hire "tow truck drivers."

We're looking for someone who wants to become a Recovery Operator.

If you're the type of person who enjoys solving problems, working with equipment, and learning a skilled trade that most people will never understand, we'd like to talk to you.

What we offer:

Up to $70,000 per year
40-hour work week
On-call every other night
Every other weekend on call

Paid holidays
Double-time overtime pay
Modern equipment
Paid training
Work alongside operators with decades of recovery experience

This isn't a job where you sit behind a desk.

Some days you'll help someone change the course of a terrible day.

Some nights you'll perform recoveries that require skill, patience, and teamwork.

Not everyone is cut out for this profession.

If you think you are... (You MUST live in Nampa or Caldwell to meet response times)

Call Crossroads Towing & Salvage at 208-461-8696 and ask to speak with T.J.

Since 2002, we've built our reputation on doing the job right—not just getting it done.
