Gonna keep this brief, I’m a young guy graduating college in a year, my grandfather has a small towing company of which he is owner and operator. Two light to medium load flatbed trucks. Small town where he’s the only towing company, and is on rotation every other week (could be wrong abt this). Weeks he’s not on rotation he’s doing other towing jobs. Makes very good money for himself (would ballpark that he nets close to 300k).

He’s getting old and it’s about time for him to quit working as hard as he does. Would it be ridiculous to step on and learn the business with the idea of expanding in the future? Learn how to operate the business, get to where I can do things on my own, but he’s still around to guide, and eventually hire a driver so that I no longer have to do the dirty work.

From the outside looking in it seems like a very scalable business. He does well for himself as the only driver, but there’s plenty of times he’s too busy to pick up other jobs. He has no website, no advertising, the business pretty much comes from him and people who know of him.

Ps. I am an accounting major
