Not all diesel mechanics work in a garage or at a single location. Mobile diesel mechanics go where the jobs are. They fix diesel trucks and diesel equipment at locations in Dallas like the side of the road, on farms and at various businesses where trucks and equipment need repairs. They also travel to clients to perform routine maintenance.
Work as a mobile diesel mechanic is interesting because you’re constantly dealing with new customers, new vehicles and new challenges. If you enjoy being on the move and want your work environment to change every day, work as a mobile diesel mechanic may be for you.
Mobile Diesel Truck Repair in Dallas Job Description
Diesel mechanics work on engines and machinery that power large vehicles and equipment, like transportation trucks, buses, cranes and bulldozers. Mobile diesel mechanics go directly to the customer. Instead of servicing vehicles and equipment in a single repair shop, on-the-go diesel mechanics drive out to the client and bring their repair equipment with them.
A day in the life of a mobile diesel mechanic might look like:
- Getting a job assignment from the general manager
- Heading out to the client to perform a repair or to do maintenance, which may include running diagnostic tests, replacing vehicle engines and repairing transmissions and braking systems
- Professionally communicating with the client and the general manager on the job status
- Maintaining a safe service truck and effective equipment
Mobile diesel mechanics may not always work the typical 9-to-5 job schedule. If you crave flexibility, you might be interested in a mobile diesel technician job because it could involve working nights and/or weekends, if that’s what you’re looking for.
Some mobile diesel mechanics form their own mobile diesel mechanic businesses, which allows them to control their workload and schedule.
Some mobile diesel mechanic jobs will require that an applicant has worked in a shop for a number of years. Sometimes, having formal diesel mechanic training is enough to get an entry-level job as a mobile diesel mechanic.
