Mobile Truck Repair vs. Towing: Which Saves You More in Southern Colorado?

When your truck breaks down on the road, you have two options: call for mobile repair or get towed to a shop. While both can get you back in business, they’re not equal in cost, time, or convenience.

At CCC Repair and Trucking, we specialize in 24/7 mobile truck repair throughout Trinidad and the surrounding areas. Before you pay for a tow, here's why mobile service often makes more sense—both for your schedule and your wallet.

What Is Mobile Truck Repair?

Mobile truck repair means our technicians come to your location—whether that’s roadside, a lot, or a job site. Our mobile units are equipped with diagnostic tools, replacement parts, and everything needed to fix most problems on-site.

What Are the Costs of Towing?

Towing a heavy-duty diesel truck can cost anywhere from $300 to $1,000+, depending on:

• Distance to the nearest shop
  
  
• Weight of your vehicle
  
  
• After-hours service fees
  
  

And that’s before any actual repair work begins.

Mobile Repair vs. Towing: Cost Comparison

In most cases, mobile truck repair costs significantly less and gets you back on the road faster.

When Mobile Repair Makes the Most Sense

Mobile repair is ideal for:

• Tire blowouts
• Battery issues
• Fault code diagnostics
• Electrical failures
• Brake line leaks
• Minor coolant or air leaks
  
  

These are the same problems CCC fixes weekly—on-site, without the added hassle of towing.

When Towing May Still Be Required

Towing is still necessary for:

• Major engine rebuilds
• Transmission failure
• Complete axle or frame damage
• Collision recovery
  
  

If this is the case, CCC will advise and help coordinate a tow to our shop.
