A blowout on I-95 stops your day fast. Call LCH Trucking and a mobile commercial tire technician comes to you: steer, drive or trailer tire, day or night.
What we handle on I-95
I-95 is the main north-south freight route through Richmond, and it carries long-haul and regional trucks around the clock. When a tire fails you need someone who brings the right commercial tire, the tools and the know-how to change it where you stopped, without a tow and without losing the load.
- Blowouts, shredded casings and lost treads
- Flats and slow leaks found on the shoulder or at a truck stop
- Steer, drive and trailer positions
- 22.5 and 24.5 commercial tire sizes
- Patch and plug when the casing can be saved
How to get help fast
- Get the truck as far from traffic as you safely can and turn on your hazards.
- Call (804) 821-0538 and tell us the highway, direction and the nearest exit or mile marker.
- Tell us the tire position (steer, drive or trailer) and the size on the sidewall if you can see it, for example 295/75R22.5.
