Family and locally owned since 1961
We love our community, and we show up in it
A company that has been on Clearwater Ave since the late ’70s gets to know the Tri-Cities. Jacobs and Rhodes has shown up at parades, home shows, school events and local causes, and Big Red has rolled in the Christmas Parade. This page is a plain list of where.

Neighbors first, customers second
Since 1961 the company has been a Tri-Cities name, and the Lysher family, owners since March 2023, keeps up the habit. Big Red is the famous Jacobs and Rhodes truck, and Ted the Tin Man is the company mascot, so the two are easy to spot at an event.
