    Most small to large companies have a group of people that have this job. Thats all they do for a few weeks is bring trucks back.

    I just recovered a 2012 KW T600 and reefer trailer for one of the smaller mega carriers last week.

    We arrived with a heavy tow, but ended up picking the ignition and driving the truck/trailer back to our yard.

    The company flew 2 drivers out to pick up the truck several days later -- the bill for recovery with storage was over $2K.
