Nunn Better Towing & Recovery: Towing Spartanburg One Chicken at a Time?

If there’s one thing we’ve learned after 15 years of towing Spartanburg, it’s that you never know what the day will bring. Flat tires, dead batteries, fender benders—those are the usual calls. But every now and then, something truly unforgettable happens. Yesterday, just in time for the 4th of July, we were reminded of that in a way no one could have predicted.


Early, just after 7 a.m., an 18-wheeler crashed at mile marker 26. What made this wreck unique wasn’t the accident itself, but what it was hauling—chicken carcasses. Hundreds of them. The entire load spilled across the highway, shutting down the road for hours and giving everyone in the area a pretty good reason to reconsider fried chicken for lunch.


We’ve been towing Spartanburg for a long time, but this one? This one gave us a front-row seat to what might be the best real-life version of “why did the chicken cross the road” we’ve ever seen. Except this time, the chickens didn’t make it across—and the road paid the price.


4th of July Reminder: Don’t Drink and Drive

While we can laugh a little about chicken spills and strange traffic incidents, there’s nothing funny about drinking and driving. As we head into the 4th of July holiday, we want to remind everyone in Spartanburg to celebrate responsibly. Accidents caused by impaired driving are tragic and entirely preventable.

If you’ve had a few drinks, don’t get behind the wheel. Call a friend, get a ride, or stay where you are. Our team will be working throughout the holiday, towing Spartanburg around the clock, but we hope we won’t be towing anyone because of a bad decision behind the wheel.
