Jacksonville sits at a busy crossroads along Highway 69 and Highway 79, connecting Tyler, Palestine, and the surrounding East Texas region. As one of the larger commercial hubs in the area, Jacksonville sees consistent traffic from local drivers, regional commuters, and commercial fleets, which means demand for fast, professional towing and recovery service stays steady throughout the week.
Vehicle emergencies rarely happen at a convenient time, and Jacksonville drivers need a towing service that responds immediately at any hour. Big Mike’s Wrecker Service operates around the clock, so breakdowns, collisions, and roadside emergencies in Jacksonville are handled without unnecessary delay. Our dispatch team evaluates each call to determine the right truck and equipment before a driver is ever sent out, keeping response times fast and ensuring the job is done correctly the first time.
Emergency towing calls in Jacksonville are frequently coordinated with local law enforcement, insurance carriers, and national roadside assistance networks.

Jacksonville’s busy commercial corridors and steady highway traffic mean a wide variety of vehicles need towing support. Big Mike’s Wrecker Service handles passenger cars, motorcycles, and small SUVs with flatbed towing available when needed to protect vehicles during transport, particularly following an accident or mechanical breakdown. Medium-duty towing supports box trucks, delivery vans, and utility vehicles used by the many local businesses and distribution operations based in and around Jacksonville.
For larger jobs, our heavy-duty towing capabilities cover semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, and heavy equipment that frequently travel through Jacksonville along Highway 69 and Highway 79. These recoveries require specialized equipment and experienced operators who can manage load shifts and complex recovery scenarios without putting people, cargo, or property at further risk.
Not every issue on Jacksonville’s roads requires a full tow. Big Mike’s Wrecker Service also provides roadside assistance for drivers who need a jump start, tire change, fuel delivery, or lockout service resolved on the spot. These calls are common throughout Jacksonville’s commercial districts and along the highway routes that pass through town, where a sudden mechanical issue can strand a driver far from home.
Our roadside assistance technicians carry the tools needed to resolve many issues without a tow, helping Jacksonville drivers get back on the road quickly. If a repair isn’t possible at the roadside, our team transitions directly into towing service so there’s no gap in communication or coverage for the driver.
Jacksonville’s mix of highway frontage, rural back roads, and surrounding farmland means vehicles don’t always stay on the pavement. Big Mike’s Wrecker Service provides winch-out services, ditch extractions, and off-road recovery for vehicles that become stuck or disabled away from the road. This includes recovery from mud, soft shoulders, and drainage areas common throughout the Cherokee County countryside.
We also perform vehicle up-righting after rollovers and manage controlled, technical recovery for accident scenes that require careful planning and execution. Each recovery is assessed on-site before equipment is deployed, ensuring the safest method is used to protect the vehicle and the surrounding property. Given Jacksonville’s higher traffic volume, our team places extra emphasis on scene safety and clear coordination with responding officers during any recovery near the highway.

Current ownership brings hands-on experience as a professional wrecker operator along with a background in the oilfield industry, giving the team a deep understanding of heavy equipment, safety standards, and demanding recovery environments.
