As a Roadside Service Technician (Tow Truck Driver) for AAA Oregon/Idaho, you’ll be operating a AAA-owned service truck (either flat-bed or wheel lift truck) within the Greater Boise area, responding to roadside assistance requests from AAA members. 

Your job is to provide outstanding service while working with members to safely and quickly find the best solution to their issue. Our focus is to keep them ‘On the Go’ by providing options such as tire changes, fuel delivery and minor mechanical repairs. When a ‘Go’ isn’t achievable, we provide a tow to the member’s chosen place of repair.  

AAA is a not-for-profit, service-based organization. AAA is famous for our roadside assistance and is the number one reason why members join and continue to renew. Your job as a roadside hero is critical to our success. Your sense of urgency, expert training, and desire to help others builds amazing relationships with our members on a daily basis.
