The People Behind Every Tow
Robert doesn't just hire anyone with a CDL and a hydraulic lift operator endorsement. When Robert puts his name on the side of a truck, the person behind the wheel has to earn the right to represent it, every single day.

What Every RJ Towing Driver Brings
These aren't aspirational, they're the baseline. A driver who doesn't meet every one of these doesn't drive for RJ Towing.
Every driver at RJ Towing undergoes a comprehensive background check before they ever take a call. This isn't a formality, when you're stranded on I-5 at midnight or your daughter's car broke down in a parking garage after her shift, the person who shows up needs to be someone you can trust without question.
Tow truck operation in California requires specific licensing and training. Every driver holds a valid California driver's license with appropriate class and endorsements, professional towing certifications, and training in proper vehicle loading, securing, and transport protocols for every truck type (flatbed, wheel-lift, medium-duty). They know California CPUC regulations for tow carriers, and operate within them on every call.
There's no corporate training manual at RJ Towing. Robert trains every driver personally, vehicle handling, customer communication, route knowledge, and safety protocols. That's how a Tesla gets loaded without engaging regen braking, how a lowered sports car clears a flatbed lip, how a distressed customer gets talked through their worst day.
Not negotiable. Every driver speaks English and Spanish fluently. In a city where 30% of residents speak Spanish at home, and in neighborhoods like Chula Vista and National City where that number exceeds 60%, bilingual drivers are a baseline requirement, not a bonus feature.
Our drivers know which freeway shoulders are safe and which aren't. Which parking structures have height clearance for a flatbed. Which residential streets in Golden Hill need a wheel-lift instead of a rollback. Where the border-crossing staging areas are for cross-border tows. You can't get that from GPS.
Meet the Team
Our team profiles below represent Robert and the drivers who cover San Diego County and the Tijuana border corridor. Full profiles with names and photos are updated as drivers opt in to public listing.
Owner · Founder · Lead Driver
Robert started RJ Towing with one truck and a phone over 15 years ago. He's still the person most likely to answer when you call at 2 AM, and still the name on the side of every truck.
Flatbed Specialist
Our flatbed lead handles the high-care transports, Teslas, AWD vehicles, classics, and motorcycles. Precise loading, soft straps, zero shortcuts.
Central + East County
Our wheel-lift driver specializes in the fast-response situations, parking-garage extractions, tight residential streets, and the urgent dispatches where minutes matter.
Commercial + Cross-Border
The driver who handles the heavy stuff, commercial fleets, motorhomes, and the binational transports between San Diego and Tijuana. Knows the border logistics cold.
Bilingual Dispatch · 24/7
The voice you hear when you call. Fluent in both languages, calm under pressure, and able to match the right truck to your situation in under two minutes.
Driver names and photos shown where drivers have opted in to public listing. Every driver dispatched to your call is background-checked, trained, bilingual, and accountable to Robert.
Most towing company websites don't have a drivers page. They show stock photos of generic trucks and anonymous workers. You have no idea who's showing up at your location until the truck arrives.
We think that's wrong.
You're letting a stranger handle your vehicle, often at night, often in a vulnerable situation. You should know who's coming. You should know they're background-checked, trained, bilingual, and accountable to a business owner who cares about your experience.
That's what this page is for. Real names. Real faces. Real people who take pride in helping San Diegans get back on the road.
