Item 1.  CHANGE IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.

         On July 20, 2000, Blue Truck Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company ("Blue Truck") which is controlled by KPS Special Situations
Fund, L.P. ("KPS"), purchased 613,073.27 shares of Series A Participating
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred
Stock"), of United Road Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
for $25 million in cash consideration (the "Blue Truck Investment"). The funds
for the Blue Truck Investment were obtained by Blue Truck from a capital
contribution provided by KPS and KPS Supplemental Fund, L.P., Blue Truck's other
member. KPS and KPS Supplemental Fund, L.P. obtained such funds from
contributions by their respective limited partners. According to the Schedule
13-D filed by Blue Truck and KPS on July 28, 2000 (the "Blue Truck 13-D"),
Michael Psaros, Eugene Keilin and David Shapiro are the controlling members of
KPS.

         The Blue Truck Investment was made pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement, dated as of April 14, 2000 and amended as of May 26, 2000, between
the Company and Blue Truck (the "Blue Truck Purchase Agreement"), which was
described in the Company's definitive proxy statement mailed by the Company to
its stockholders on or about June 14, 2000. At a special meeting of the
Company's stockholders held on July 20, 2000, the Company's stockholders
approved the Blue Truck Investment. As a result of its investment, Blue Truck
acquired a controlling interest in the Company.

         Pursuant to the Blue Truck Purchase Agreement and in accordance with
the terms of an investors' agreement (the "Investors' Agreement"), dated as of
July 20, 2000, between the Company and Blue Truck, four of the Company's
directors resigned from the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and
certain persons nominated by Blue Truck (the "Blue Truck Nominees") have been
appointed to a majority of the seats on the Board. As a result, the Blue Truck
Nominees now control and constitute a majority of the Board. The foregoing
changes to the Board were described in an information statement, pursuant to
Section 14(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule
14(f)-1 thereunder, mailed by the Company to its stockholders on or about June
14, 2000 and which is incorporated herein by reference. There was no previous
controlling person from whom control of the Company was assumed.

         Blue Truck is the record and beneficial owner of 613,073.27 shares of
Series A Preferred Stock. As of July 20, 2000, based on a conversion price of
$4.0778 and assuming conversion by Blue Truck of all of the shares of the Series
A Preferred Stock owned by it, Blue Truck is the beneficial owner of 6,130,732.7
shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 (the "Common Stock"), which, according to
the Blue

                                     Page 2

<PAGE>

Truck 13-D, represents the beneficial ownership of approximately 74.55% of the
Common Stock of the Company.

         Blue Truck and KPS have entered into an assignment agreement, dated as
of July 20, 2000, pursuant to which Blue Truck has assigned to KPS Blue Truck's
rights to elect and designate directors to the Board of Directors pursuant to
the Investors' Agreement.

Item 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

         On July 20, 2000, in connection with the Blue Truck Investment, KPS
arranged, and the Company and each of its subsidiaries entered into a new $100
million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with a
syndicate of banks, agented by General Electric Capital Corporation, a New York
corporation. The Credit Facility has a term of five years. In connection with
its entering into the Credit Facility, the Company terminated its credit
facility for which Bank of America, N.A. acted as agent, and repaid all amounts
outstanding thereunder.
