The Memphis Opportunity

Memphis Drivers Deserve Better Roadside Service.

Memphis is a major metro with thousands of daily roadside incidents — and drivers who expect fast, modern service. Most local operators still run on pen and paper.

Every day, drivers get stranded from Beale Street, Graceland, Memphis International, and out to the I-240 loop — commuters, rideshare drivers, families, and tourists who need help fast and don't care who owns the tow truck. They just want someone reliable to show up.

Most people who try to start a roadside business in Memphis begin from zero: no software, no brand, no customers, no dispatch infrastructure. They spend years — and hundreds of thousands of dollars — trying to build a business.

As the DRIVE Roadside franchisee for Memphis, you skip all of that. You start with a proven, direct-to-consumer roadside platform refined through real jobs since 2018 — with the training, playbooks, and support to own your market from day one.

We're not dependent on low-margin motor club work. Our model is built on direct-to-consumer customers at healthy margins — unusual for a service franchise in the Memphis market.

Low Overhead

No Tow Truck. No Tow-Truck Insurance. No Heavy Equipment.

Use a regular vehicle. Most Memphis roadside jobs — battery, tire, lockout, fuel — don't need a truck.

Skip commercial tow insurance. Without a tow truck, you avoid the premiums that come with operating one.

Inexpensive tools. The equipment you need costs a fraction of a truck — keeping operating expenses low.

Or outsource to your local network. Providers sign up every day. When one signs up in your Memphis territory, we send you the referral to add to your local network — thinner margins, very little hands-on work.
