Semi Truck Repair Wendell, Idaho
Semi truck repair in Wendell, Idaho doesn't have to mean a long wait. We're just up the road in Jerome, with mobile service to I-84 exit 157 and full shop bays open 7 AM to 10 PM every day. Call (208) 696-9888 — a local picks up.
Dairy and hay hauling, close to home
Wendell runs on dairy and hay. Milk tankers roll every day of the year, and hay season stacks loaded trucks on every road out of town. Both kinds of hauling are hard on equipment: heavy loads, tight schedules, and no good time for a breakdown.
The good news is you're close. Wendell sits at exit 157, one exit stretch from Jerome, so both our mobile response and the drive to our shop are short. Plenty of Wendell drivers just limp in to 2745 Tucker Ct Ste A and get seen the same day.
Breakdown at exit 157? Stay put
If the truck won't move — won't build air, won't start, derated to a crawl — don't fight it. Call (208) 696-9888 from the shoulder. We quote the flat call-out fee before we roll, then send a tech with parts for the most likely fixes: air leaks, brake chambers, batteries, starters, belts, and coolant leaks.
Cold snap in January? That's when the gelled fuel and derate calls start, and black ice on I-84 keeps the tow trucks busy. Summer flips the script — hay and grain season means loaded trucks running long days. We're open until 10 PM year-round because breakdowns don't watch the clock.
Full service in the Jerome shop
Our bays handle the whole rig. Trucks: Kenworth, Peterbilt, Freightliner, Western Star, Volvo, Mack, International. Engines: Cummins, Detroit Diesel, PACCAR, CAT. Trailers: Great Dane, Utility, Wabash, dry vans, flatbeds, cattle pots, and the dairy tankers Wendell knows well. Reefers: Thermo King and Carrier.
Brakes, electrical, check engine lights, DPF cleanings and regen problems, coolant systems — we quote the job first, and the price we quote is the price you pay.
DOT annuals without the runaround
Truck and trailer each need their own annual inspection, and we do both in one visit. Inspections are performed by qualified inspectors per FMCSA 49 CFR 396.19, and we keep your reports on file for 14 months. For a dairy or hay outfit in Wendell, that's one short trip to Jerome and both units are legal for the year.
Driver questions
How fast can you get to Wendell?
Wendell is close — exit 157 is a short run from our Jerome shop, so response there is usually quick. Straight answer: it still depends on where our trucks are when you call. We quote the call-out fee and a real arrival time before we roll.
Can you work on my milk tanker?
Yes. Dairy tankers are regular visitors in our bays — brakes, lights, air systems, and DOT annuals. Dairy hauling puts real schedule pressure on a rig, and we work to turn tankers around fast.
What does a mobile call to Wendell cost?
We state a flat call-out fee before we roll — you hear the number on the phone, not on the invoice. The repair itself gets quoted before work starts, and the price we quote is the price you pay.
