Scruff's Towing Services LLC 86-1213578 | Government Grant Application

Scruff's Towing Services LLC | Application Preview

 

Scruff's Towing Services LLC is applying for government grants to pay off an existing business loan and acquire essential winter equipment. They seek funding for truck winterization, new tires, updated oil, protective outerwear for staff, and a jumpstart kit to enhance service capabilities during the winter months.

The company operates in a rapidly growing area where existing towing services struggle to meet the needs of the increasing population. Scruff's plans to establish contracts with motor clubs to expand their reach, particularly in the winter, which is expected to be a peak income season. Future growth plans include hiring additional drivers.

Scruff's emphasizes its Christian values, focusing on honesty and commitment to customer service. They pride themselves on transparent pricing and reliable service, distinguishing themselves from competitors. Notably, Gesslers Towing, although established, has received complaints for service refusal, and Roskopf's Towing has been criticized for poor customer support and pricing issues. Apple Towing, while generally well-reviewed, lacks 24-hour service and often declines jobs.

Scruff's competitive edge lies in its relatively new status and its unwavering commitment to courteous, professional service, ensuring honest delivery on ETAs without overbooking calls. This positions them as a trustworthy alternative in the local towing market.

  • Funding Usage

    We are looking to pay off a business loan we have as well as fund some equipment we need for the winter months. The truck is in need of winterization, new tires, different oil and a few other updates. We also need the winter protective outerwear to keep warm and dry. We are also looking to get a jumpstart kit and some other items to ensure we are able to fully help our customers

  • Business Plan

    The area we are based in has had significant growth over the last 10 years and is continuing to grow. The other companies in this industry near me do not have the necessary means to help the growing population. We also plan to have contracts with other motor clubs as we are able to add what is required to our insurance policy. Winter is going to be our biggest income growing season. We are also looking to eventually hire more drivers. We are a Christian based company that strives in honesty and commitment. We are honest with customers on pricing and ETAs. We are listed with Out of Network motor clubs as an honest company. They call us before some of their contracts. Towing is something most people have needed or will need in the future. We aim to make sure we are working to provide customers a necessary service without gouging them on price.

  • Self Identified Competition

    Gesslers Towing has been in our area since 1974 and has an average of 4 star reviews. Since we have been in business we have received calls from customers and motor clubs telling us that they called Gessler's but they were refused service. Roskopf's is located in Menomonee Falls and is a 24/7 business. They have been in business since 1984. After reading reviews we see that they have poor customer service and gouge in pricing. People complain of waiting long past their given ETA. Apple Towing is located in Pewaukee and has been in business since 2009. They have good reviews but are not 24 hours. They turn down work as well and don't go out of their area often We are a new company that opened during the pandemic. We believe in honesty, courteous service and professionalism. The driver is uniformed and polite. We are honest on out ETAs and do not stack calls.
