Joliet is where the freight stacks up — the I-80/I-55 junction, Route 53, and the CenterPoint intermodal moving containers around the clock. A truck down here backs up your whole day, and every minute it sits is money you’re not making. J&A is based right in this area, so we’re close when you call — not dispatching from across the county.
We fix it where it sits when we can. Diesel and engine trouble, air brakes, electrical, cooling, transmission — our mobile techs diagnose to the root before they touch a part, no guessing on your dime. If it needs the shop, we don’t run tow trucks ourselves; we work a network of tow companies and line up the best rate to get your rig in, then handle the repair once it’s there.
Stranded at 2 a.m. on Route 53 doesn’t change what you pay. You hear our hourly rate, our minimum, and any surcharges before we roll — the same numbers whether it’s noon or the middle of the night. Overcharging a driver in a tough spot is something you’ll never run into with J&A.
Roadside or in the shop, our certified techs handle:
- Diesel & engine repair
- Semi-truck roadside assistance
- Air brake repair
- Electrical & alternator
- Cooling, radiator & A/C
- Transmission repair
- Welding & fabrication
Beyond the breakdown call, we run as a fleet partner for operators working the Joliet corridor — PM programs built to cut downtime and control costs, not just an invoice after something fails.
WHY JOLIET DRIVERS AND FLEETS CALL US
- We find the actual problem — diagnose to the root, not throw parts at it.
- Straight pricing — rate, minimum, and surcharges up front; stranded doesn’t mean gouged.
- Done right the first time by certified techs trained on big rigs.
- Based right in this area — not a national chain dispatching a stranger across the county.
John was quick. Load was stuck on blocks from another driver that dropped it. Came out quick and was able to lift the machine up and get the blocks out from under the machine.
JOLIET AND THE SURROUNDING AREA
We cover Joliet and the towns around it — Morris, Aurora, New Lenox, Rockdale, and Gardner — with quick reach to the I-80/I-55 junction, Route 53, and the CenterPoint intermodal that keeps this corridor moving.
WHAT IT COSTS — BEFORE WE ROLL
No surprises. Mobile road service is billed port-to-port — from when we leave the shop to when we get back, the industry standard for service calls. The price only changes if the job changes.
You’ll hear our hourly rate, our minimum, and any surcharges before we roll. Stranded doesn’t change the rate.
