My Uncle had a tow service and yard for a long time. He did pretty well but was the only driver so was on call 24/7. He did almost entirely wrecks since we don’t really have any parking laws around here. I think he got $35-$50 bucks for a tow but that was some time ago.
When he died his son tried to keep it going but more or less as a 9-5 gig. He didn’t last long before he folded up. Seems like you have to be available to take what you can get when you can get it, might be different in a metro area.
