Dating back to ’84
Strickland Road Service has a rich history rooted in a commitment to quality and service excellence. The company was founded in 1984 by Charles Strickland, who had already established a strong reputation in the automotive industry with Strickland Tire, his previous business in Wichita, Kansas. From 1970 to 1982, Strickland Tire operated a bustling tire and repair shop with eight service trucks running 24/7, becoming a trusted name for drivers in the region. After a brief return to the family farm, Charles launched Strickland Road Service with a single service truck in Hunnewell, Kansas, bringing his extensive expertise back to the road.
Growing into the Future
In 1986, a growing need for efficient roadside assistance led Charles to purchase his first tow truck, marking the company’s expansion into towing and recovery. Over the years, Strickland Road Service continued to grow, adding skilled employees, advanced equipment, and a diversified fleet capable of handling vehicles of all sizes. By 1995, the company had built a state-of-the-art facility at Exit 4 on Interstate 35 to support its growing operations. This growth allowed Strickland Road Service to become a trusted provider of towing, roadside assistance, and mechanical services across Kansas and Northern Oklahoma, maintaining its reputation for reliability and exceptional service for nearly four decades.
