This year our employees got together and decided to do a backpack and school supplies drive. Some community members dropped off supplies, some cash. 

We raised enough to buy 15 backpacks, fill them with supplies as well as a large stock of various supplies. 

Thank you all so much for your contributions and support. 

This is a detailing of the buyback process that we dealt with recently so that others will have a heads up should they have to contend with a big company buyback of any kind. No big surprise here:  you are a number – a VIN number to be exact. To be fair, others’ experiences may be different, but this is a synopsis of ours.

A little history…

When we bought the truck in 2011, we were ecstatic. It was an exciting day. It was a 4wd flatbed and would allow us to do calls in places we had previously had to call in others to assist, or get stuck trying to do it ourselves. Mind you, we’ve been creative and mostly managed, but this was a cool tool to have!

It soon became apparent that it had front end issues. At 4,000 miles + / – we had to replace the brand new tires. The truck never [...]

The mission is to collect as much food and toys as possible between now and the New Year to help avert as much hunger in the community as possible. Times are tough. Making those times a bit easier is the goal of all of us here at Totman's.

This head on collision clearly outlines why people should NOT be texting and driving. Initially they were not sure if the texting driver would survive, but he did. Fortunately for him, the other driver was not badly injured, but that is rarely the case.

  We have towed small planes, boats, cars, classic and antique cars, equipment (including lathes, excavators, tractors, etc.), small buildings and more.  Recently we were hired to offload a swimming pool and transport it to a residence.

  Brian Totman has over 30 years of towing and recovery experience, having worked with his Dad, hands-on in Billerica, Massachusetts for many years, since he was very young, and has been doing recoveries on his own since the age of 16. Brian is versatile, experienced, friendly and professional. He has earned a reputation locally since 1994 of being able to get vehicles out of many precarious places with minimal effort, as well as providing prompt, courteous and professional service to our local law enforcement agencies (Maine State Police and Waldo County Sheriff’s Department). He also provides that same level of service to [...]

Many people appear to be unaware that there is a law (Title 29-A §2054) in Maine that requires drivers to move over to a non-adjacent lane or if not possible, to use prudent speed to pass safely, emergency vehicles INCLUDING wreckers working on the side of the road to load or extricate vehicles from various undesirable positions along roadsides here in Maine.

We have had many unpleasant experiences dealing with drivers who either don’t know there is such a law or could care less about the safety of those people working on the side of the road. We have made every attempt to ensure that our drivers and vehicles are visible in any kind of weather. Our uniforms are in compliance with State and Federal law requiring ANSI Class 3 level for emergency personnel working on the roadside, we have reflective lettering on our trucks and emergency lights and beacons on our trucks. These measures [...]

 

 

Winter? REALLY? Yep, it’s coming!  Despite all the warmth this fall, my ride with Brian on the motorcycle last night finally convinced me that it may have been the last ride of the year. It was COLD! Bummer, BUT winter in Maine is beautiful, and it’s why most of us live here is to enjoy the four seasons. Part of that enjoyment is being PREPARED.

Is your vehicle ready? Have you checked your tires, antifreeze, windshield washer fluid that won’t freeze, and overall condition of your brakes and suspension for winter? Give us a call and we’ll go over it for you to make sure it’s safe to drive and get you through.

This winter is projected to be as challenging as last year – don’t wait til you’re calling us to winch you out or tow you. We don’t mind going out to get ya, but prefer making sure you’re safe so [...]
