Professional Heavy Duty Wreckers for Commercial Towing Operations

Heavy duty wreckers are the backbone of serious towing and recovery operations. These aren't the trucks that handle roadside assistance calls or light-duty tows—they're purpose-built machines designed to recover semi trucks, motor homes, commercial vehicles, and heavy equipment when nothing else will do the job.

We've been selling Miller Industries heavy duty wreckers for over 30 years across the Southeastern US. Every unit we sell is backed by the best warranty in the towing industry, and our factory-trained technicians provide the service and support you need to keep your equipment earning.

Heavy Duty Wrecker Models We Carry

Our heavy duty wrecker lineup covers the full range of recovery scenarios you'll encounter. Each model delivers capabilities to match different operational needs, whether you're running a single-truck operation or managing a regional fleet.

Our heavy duty wrecker lineup covers recovery capacities from 16 tons up to 75+ tons, handling everything from motor homes and delivery vans to semi trucks and heavy commercial equipment. Popular models like the Century 4024 and Vulcan V-30 offer the sweet spot for many operations with 16 to 20-ton recovery booms, dual planetary winches, and extended underlift reach for longer wheelbase vehicles. The Holmes DTU (Detachable Towing Unit) provides unique versatility by mounting to your fifth wheel, letting your chassis pull trailers between recovery calls.

For operators handling heavier commercial work, we stock higher-capacity models including the Century 5130, 5230, and 7035, plus the Vulcan V-70 , Vulcan V100, Century 9055 & 9055XL. We'll help you match the right configuration to the work you do. Visit our inventory page to see current availability and detailed specifications on every unit we have in stock.

What Sets Our Heavy Duty Wreckers Apart

Quality matters when your business depends on equipment staying operational. Every heavy duty wrecker we sell comes with the industry's best warranty coverage: five years or 300,000 miles on engines and aftertreatment systems, plus seven years unlimited on transmissions. That's real protection that keeps your truck earning while others are in the shop. As a Miller Industries authorized dealer with exclusive territory rights, our factory-trained technicians know CenturyVulcan, and Holmes equipment inside and out. We mount our equipment on International, Freightliner, Peterbilt, and Kenworth chassis because these manufacturers build frames engineered to handle the constant stress of heavy recovery work.

Understanding Heavy Duty Wrecker Capabilities

When you're comparing heavy duty wreckers, the specifications tell you what's possible, but understanding how those capabilities translate to actual jobs is what matters for your business. Recovery boom capacity determines the weight you can safely lift and the angles you can work—a 20-ton boom like the Century 4024 handles most commercial recovery situations, from repositioning disabled delivery trucks to uprighting overturned vehicles. Underlift systems handle heavy duty towing work, and extended reach like the 103 inches on the 4024 means you can safely secure longer wheelbase vehicles like motor homes and commercial buses without causing additional damage.

Winch configurations make or break your recovery capabilities. Dual planetary winches, standard on most Miller Industries heavy duty units, give you options for complex pulls:

Control systems have evolved significantly in recent years. Wireless remote operation, dual control stations, and hydraulic lanyard systems let your operators work safely from multiple positions. When you're managing a recovery on a busy highway or working in hazardous conditions, being able to control your wrecker from the safest vantage point isn't a luxury—it's essential.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a heavy duty wrecker?

A heavy duty wrecker is a specialized tow truck built to handle large-scale recovery operations that light and medium-duty equipment can't manage. These units feature recovery booms rated from 16 to 75+ tons, powerful winch systems, and reinforced chassis designed to safely recover semi trucks, motor homes, buses, and heavy commercial vehicles. Heavy duty wreckers handle everything from repositioning disabled delivery trucks to uprighting overturned tractor-trailers.

What's the difference between heavy duty wreckers and rotators?

Heavy duty wreckers use fixed or pivoting booms for recovery and towing operations, while rotators feature booms that rotate 360 degrees for maximum positioning flexibility. Rotators excel at complex recovery scenarios like overturned vehicles or tight spaces where you need to work from multiple angles. Most towing operations build their capabilities with heavy duty wreckers first, then add rotators as their business grows into specialized recovery work.

Do you sell used heavy duty wreckers?

Yes, we maintain inventory of both new and quality pre-owned heavy duty wreckers. Every used unit undergoes thorough inspection before reaching our sales floor, and we maintain detailed service history records for each piece of equipment. Used heavy duty wreckers provide excellent value for growing operations, offering proven reliability at lower upfront costs while maintaining the performance your business demands.
