Tow Truck Driver Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, Opening hook: During my time on the road I’ve found that solid preparation before a tow makes the job safer and quicker. At my last role I routinely planned routes and checked all equipment the night before, which meant on shift I could cut scene time by about 15 minutes per job. I’m ready to bring that same practical approach to [Company Name]. Skills alignment: I’ve spent years driving tow lorries, doing winching on tilt decks, and handling heavy salvage with care. I’m comfortable with attaching towing gear, keeping accurate records, and performing basic equipment maintenance after shifts. I’m keen to work with a team that values safe towing procedures and clear handovers, and I’ve got hands-on experience with vehicle recovery techniques and upright winches. Evidence story: A memorable week at [Previous Company] had me on three city incidents in one night, including a multi-vehicle rollover. I mapped a safe recovery sequence, secured the scene, and completed two recoveries with minimal disruption to traffic and no further damage to vehicles. The depot checked the winch and spreader bar after each job, and I logged each part and service needed so the next driver had a smooth handover. Professional close: I’m available to discuss how my practical approach fits [Company Name] and the role. I can be reached most days after 9am, and I’m happy to provide references from current colleagues. Kind regards, [Your Name]
