What to tell us when you call

For drivers, dispatchers, and fleet managers. These details help us send the right equipment the first time.

  1. Exact location

    The highway, direction of travel, and nearest exit or mile marker.

  2. The vehicle

    The type, make, and model, plus the axle setup if you know it.

  3. Trailer and load

    Whether a trailer is attached, and whether it's loaded or empty.

  4. Where it's going

    Your terminal, a truck repair shop, a dealership, or another address.

Every heavy tow starts with a plan

Heavy vehicles can't be hooked up and pulled away like a car. Before we tow, we look at the vehicle's weight, axles, and air brake system, where it's sitting, and how traffic is moving around it.

That planning protects your vehicle and keeps everyone on the road safe.

Staying safe at a heavy breakdown

A stopped semi or bus is a hazard to everyone around it, especially on I-44 and US-65. While you wait for us:

  • Get as far onto the shoulder as you safely can and turn on your hazard lights.
  • Set out your warning triangles behind the truck, the way your training shows, if it's safe to walk there.
  • Stay off the travel side of the vehicle. Passing traffic comes close and fast.
  • Keep passengers together in a safe place away from traffic, especially on a bus.
  • Call us with the details: direction of travel, nearest exit or mile marker, the truck and trailer, and whether it's loaded.
  • If anyone is hurt or the vehicle is on fire or leaking, call 911 first.

We'll plan the tow before we arrive, so the right truck and equipment show up the first time.
