Truck Help in Jesup, Waycross & Tifton

Southeast Georgia between I-95 and I-75 is mostly timber country on two-lane US highways, with log trucks, rail traffic and long distances between shops. Jesup and Waycross are where you can get a truck fixed; Tifton is the closest I-75 town inside our 150-mile radius.

The roads

US-84 is the main east–west route: it leaves I-95 at Midway, runs through Hinesville and Ludowici to Jesup, and continues to Blackshear and Waycross. US-341 connects Brunswick to Jesup, US-301 runs north–south through Jesup toward Glennville and Statesboro, and US-82 links Brunswick and Waycross to Tifton on I-75. None of these towns is on an interstate, so plan fuel and repairs around them.

Jesup

Jesup is about 30 miles inland from I-95. Georgia Fleet Services on Savannah Hwy (US-341) does truck repair including diagnostics and aftertreatment work, and B7 Family Auto Care and Mobile Service, a few miles closer to town, handles semi and RV tires and comes to you. The large Rayonier Advanced Materials plant brings a steady stream of log and chip trucks through town.

Waycross

Waycross is a railroad town — CSX's Rice Yard is one of the largest rail yards in the Southeast — and a crossroads for US-1, US-82 and US-84. Tom Nehl's Waycross store has a heavy-duty service department for Freightliner and Western Star, and Tom Nehl also lists an emergency line in Jacksonville. Corbitt Truck and Tractor Repair on Knight Ave offers mobile service and is listed as open 24 hours on Trucker Path, and Boulevard Tire Center on Memorial Dr sells commercial truck tires, with 24-hour roadside service for commercial and fleet customers.

Tifton and I-75

Tifton, where US-82 meets I-75, is right at our 150-mile limit. Stephen's Wrecker Service there is a third-generation heavy towing company with a 40-ton rotator, and it also covers Waycross and US-82. The Pilot (Exit 60) and Love's #325 Truck Care (Exit 59) are the truck stops.

Safety on two-lane highways

On a two-lane US highway there's often no real shoulder. If you can't get fully off the road, turn on your flashers, put triangles out well behind you and call 911 — a truck stopped in a travel lane at night is an emergency.
