Air Brake Repair in Wilmington, DE
Everything a fleet manager or owner-operator needs to know before booking a air brake repair call in Wilmington.
What is air brake repair, exactly?
Wilmington sits where I-95, I-495, and I-295 meet, which is why most breakdown calls here come off a highway rather than a side street. A truck stopped on one of those is a traffic problem before it is a repair problem, so the first thing our dispatcher asks is which road you are on and which way you are pointed.
The trucks that cover Wilmington also run Edgemoor, Bellefonte, Penns Grove, and Philadelphia, out to about 30 miles at Cherry Hill. So a call from the edge of New Castle County reaches the same people as one from the middle of town, and you are not handed off to a different dispatcher because of a county line.
