Why Truckers and Fleets Call Us First
-
One price, no add-ons. Many heavy duty road service companies charge a service call fee plus labor. We charge a flat $100 anywhere we serve, and that is the whole bill.
-
We only do jump starts. No repair queue and no waiting for a tech to finish another job. When you call, we head out.
-
Local to Broward. Not a national call center dispatching whoever is free.
-
Fleet discount. $90 per heavy duty jump after your third each month. See fleet pricing.
Heavy Duty Pricing
Semis, box trucks, buses and RVs are a flat $100 anywhere we serve, truck stops included. Hollywood, Hallandale Beach, Dania Beach, Pembroke Park, West Park, Port Everglades, Fort Lauderdale, Davie (including the Florida 595 Truck Stop), Miramar, Pembroke Pines, Plantation, Pompano Beach and the Seminole Travel Center on US-27 are all the same $100. That is the whole price, day or night, weekends and holidays. No service call fee and no labor charge on top.
Trucks We Jump
Nearly every Class 8 truck built for the US market runs a 12V system with three or four batteries wired in parallel. We also handle 24V buses, imports and equipment. Give us the make, model and year when you call and we confirm before we roll.

12V or 24V, We Check Before We Clamp
Most US trucks are 12V. 24V shows up on many motor coaches, European imports, military-style vehicles and larger construction machinery. Either way, we test your system with a meter before connecting anything, so the right voltage goes to the right posts every time. If you are not sure what you have, just tell us the make, model and year.
Before We Arrive
Please have the battery box open when we get there. We do not open compartments or remove covers, for liability reasons and because it is your equipment. Open box, clean access, and we are clamped on and cranking in minutes.
Where We Cover
Why Truck Batteries Die
Heavy trucks carry a bank of batteries, and a bank is only as good as its weakest member. One failing battery drags the rest down and the whole thing reads dead.
Add the way trucks actually get used. Long idle periods at a yard or a terminal. Hotel loads, inverters, fridges, APUs and electronics pulling current with the engine off. Florida heat cooking the batteries year round. And drivers sleeping in the bunk running accessories overnight. What each no-start sound means.
We Will Tell You Straight
A jump gets you running. It does not fix a bad battery, a dead cell or an alternator that stopped charging. After we get you started we check charging voltage and tell you honestly what we see, so you can plan a repair instead of getting stranded again at the next stop.
FAQs
Q: How much is a heavy duty jump start?
A: A flat $100 anywhere we serve, truck stops like Pompano Beach and US-27 included, for any semi, box truck, dump truck, bus or RV, 12V or 24V. No service call fee and no night or weekend surcharge. Diesel pickups and vans are our standard $70.
Q: Is my truck 12V or 24V?
A: Almost every US-built Class 8 tractor is 12V with batteries in parallel. Many motor coaches and imports are 24V. We handle both and confirm with a meter before we clamp.
Q: Do you carry enough power for a big diesel?
A: Yes. We use commercial-grade jump equipment built for large diesel engines and fully dead truck banks, not a car booster.
Q: What if the truck will not start after the jump?
A: Then it is not the batteries. Could be starter, charging system, fuel or air. We will tell you what we are seeing so you can call the right person instead of another jump service.
Q: How do I pay?
A: Cash or Zelle at the truck. We do not take credit cards. Need a receipt for your company? We will email one the same day.
Q: Can you jump my reefer or APU battery?
A: If the battery is accessible and the box is open, usually yes. Describe the setup when you call.
