The activities culminated with Jerr-Dan team members giving back to the community with the ‘Good to Give Back Week’ initiative that involved Jerr-Dan employees donating their time to a variety of charitable institutions and non-profits by engaging in several community service activities.

In 45 years, the company that began building EZ-Dumpers and tow trucks in 1972 in Greencastle, Pennsylvania., today is a single brand leader in the towing and recovery business because of its innovations to the industry. Jerr-Dan developed the first extruded aluminum deck for a carrier in the industry, and designed a wheel lift-type wrecker that is now standard in the towing world. Jerr-Dan has earned several patents around the world for its products, including the advanced wrecker wheel-lift and the lightweight/rust resistant carrier body. In 2004, Jerr-

Dan was acquired by Oshkosh Corporation, which designs and builds specialty trucks, truck bodies and access equipment. With manufacturing operations in nine countries, Oshkosh employs 13,100 people around the world and its products and services are sold in more than 130 countries.
