Head-On Collision Requires Tractor Trailer Towing in Sidney, Iowa
A head-on collision between two tractor trailers makes for a big mess! Fortunately, Sidney, Iowa truck drivers know to call Benefiel for expert tractor trailer towing services. We were able to handle a stressful situation with ease.
Benefiel Truck Towing was dispatched to a two tractor trailer accident on Highway 2 at the Percival Corner by the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office in Sidney, Iowa. Upon hearing the details of the incident, we sent out a 75-ton rotator, 25-ton integrated wrecker, incident response unit, two heavy duty road service trucks, a heavy duty rollback, and a skid steer with attachments.
Our tractor trailer towing team worked on one of the trucks involved to get the scene cleared. When we arrived on scene, the crew found two freightliners involved in a head on collision. The truck we were tasked with caring for had heavy front end damage and heavy damage to the front of the trailer due to shifting cargo.
As a professional tractor trailer towing company, we immediately went to work. This started with winching the units apart. The team hooked the unit to the 25-ton wrecker and prepared it for towing to Benefiel Truck Repair Nebraska City for storage. With the scene cleared, the tractor trailer towing team picked up the debris and truck parts that had come loose.
The affected trailer was placed in our inside storage facility at our secured west storage lot in Nebraska City to prevent the load of paper plates from being exposed to the elements.
In the days that followed, the tractor trailer towing team made arrangements to cross dock the freight. Our crew of 8 performed the work for this and the load will be towed to Omaha, Nebraska.
Although the head-on collision created a big backup and mess, Benefiel tractor trailer towing was able to step in and assist. Great work to our team!
