ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
EQUIPMENT CHECKLIST.

What a Canadian roadside-assistance business runs on — the service-truck platform and the battery, tire, air, power and lighting equipment behind every call, as a planning checklist.

A roadside-assistance business is a service platform on wheels: the truck, the organized equipment it carries, and the accounts that pay for both. This checklist walks the equipment layer — the service-truck platform and the battery, tire, air, power and lighting equipment behind every call.

Equipment context only: service procedure, roadside positioning and vehicle-entry technique belong to trained operators and are not covered anywhere in this checklist.

THE SERVICE-TRUCK PLATFORM

Service body with organized drawers and compartments
Truck-mounted crane or winch hoist where the work needs it
Onboard air — compressor, storage and reels
Auxiliary power and inverter systems
Work lighting and scene-light systems
Serious tool storage

THE SERVICE EQUIPMENT (existing FixFin authorities)

Battery boosters, testers and professional jump-start systems — Battery & Electrical equipment
Mobile tire changers, inflators and roadside tire tools — Tire & Mobile equipment
