The History of PJ Towing: Serving Dallas, GA with Pride

The History of PJ Towing: Serving Dallas, GA with Pride

Every company has a story, and at PJ Towing, ours is rooted deep in the heart of Dallas, GA. What started as a small operation with a single truck has grown into a trusted name in heavy-duty towing and recovery across Paulding County. Our journey is one of hard work, community spirit, and a passion for keeping North Georgia’s roads safe and open. Here’s how PJ Towing came to be—and why we’re proud to call Dallas home.

Humble Beginnings

Back in the early days—let’s say the late ‘90s—PJ Towing was just an idea sparked by our founder, “PJ” Shon Reid (we’re keeping it simple here; adjust the name or date as needed!). A Dallas native with a knack for mechanics, PJ saw a need in his hometown. Big rigs were rolling through on Highway 278, construction was booming, and accidents were tying up roads with no one equipped to handle the heavy stuff. With a used tow truck, a lot of grit, and a promise to help his neighbors, PJ got to work.

The first job? Hauling a stranded delivery truck off a muddy shoulder near Burnt Hickory. It took hours, but PJ got it done—and word spread fast. Soon, locals knew who to call when a tractor-trailer broke down or a wreck needed clearing.

Growing with the Community

As Dallas, GA, grew, so did we. By the early 2000s, PJ Towing upgraded from that lone truck to a small fleet, adding heavy wreckers to handle the bigger jobs popping up around Paulding County. Businesses started relying on us to move equipment, truckers counted on us for roadside rescues, and families appreciated our quick response to highway snarls. We weren’t just towing—we were becoming part of the fabric of this community.

A turning point came when we invested in our first rotator. That beast of a machine let us tackle rollovers and complex recoveries, like the time a cement mixer flipped on Highway 61. Jobs that once took all day were done in hours, and PJ Towing’s reputation as the go-to heavy-duty crew solidified.

Today: A Legacy of Service

Fast forward to 2025, and PJ Towing is stronger than ever. We’ve got a full fleet—rotators, wreckers, lowboys—and a team of skilled operators who know Dallas and its backroads like their own backyard. We’re still family-run, with PJ’s values at our core: show up fast, work hard, and treat every client like a neighbor. Whether it’s a midnight emergency or a planned equipment haul, we’re here 24/7, proud to serve the same community that gave us our start.

Why Dallas, GA Means Everything to Us

This isn’t just a job—it’s personal. We’ve watched Dallas grow from a quiet town to a thriving hub, and we’ve grown with it. From clearing wrecks during storms to helping truckers keep their deadlines, every call we answer is a chance to give back. Paulding County’s people, businesses, and roads are why we do what we do—and why we’ll keep doing it for years to come.

Looking Ahead

The future’s bright for PJ Towing. We’re always upgrading our gear, training our team, and finding new ways to serve. But one thing won’t change: our commitment to Dallas, GA. So next time you see one of our trucks rolling down Highway 278, know it’s more than a tow—it’s a piece of local history, driven by pride.
