History
Established in 1973.
Family owned and operated, Wally Shriner started business as a Shell service station way back in 1973. Wally was inducted into the towing and recovery hall of fame in 1995 for his outstanding commitment and integrity. Sadly, Wally passed away in 1999, but his tradition for excellence still remains with us. Broad & James closed the Shell station, getting out of the gas business in 2008, allowing them to concentrate on auto repair and towing.
Wally’s sons, Tom and Jim Shriner have successfully run the business for the past 15-years, growing the company into one of the largest and most capable towing companies in Ohio. Employing more than 40 workers and expert technicians, Broad and James is able to quickly respond to any and all automotive emergencies 24⁄7. Broad & James currently works with eight police departments, many auto clubs, several new car dealers, numerous independent garages and body shops, and hundreds of private property impounds.
