Working the roads in Carroll County

Carrollton, the county seat, sits at the junction of US-24 and US-65 in the south-central part of Carroll County, and US-65 runs north from there toward Chillicothe in Livingston County. Route 10 enters from Ray County on the west, passing through Norborne on its way from Richmond, and Routes 41 and 139 are the county's other main highways. The Missouri River lies south of both Carrollton and Norborne, and two railroads, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and the Wabash, pass through Norborne. From our Liberty yard, Route 10 through Richmond is the road into the Norborne side of the county.

This is farm country. Norborne is mostly an agricultural community and calls itself the Soybean Capital of the World, with a Soybean Festival every August, so farm trucks and equipment share the roads around it. Bogard and Tina lie north of Carrollton and Hale to the north-east, and the rural shoulders and field entrances out there can go soft after rain. When you call, name the highway or county road, the nearest village and which way you were heading, and say whether a trailer is loaded, since a loaded farm trailer off the edge is a different job from an empty one. Near the US-24 and US-65 junction at Carrollton, tell us which highway you are on.

Towing service and heavy-duty recovery in Carrollton, MO

Carroll County's seat, Carrollton, stands where US-24 meets US-65 in the south-central part of the county, with the Missouri River to the south. It was established in 1833 and won the National Civic League's All-America City Award in 2005. The Carroll County Court House, the Sheriff's Quarters and Jail, the post office and the Wilcoxson and Company Bank all carry National Register listings, and the courthouse is an easy landmark to give dispatch.

Towing service and heavy-duty recovery in Norborne, MO

Route 10 runs through Norborne in south-west Carroll County, west-southwest of Carrollton and east of Richmond, with the Missouri River to the south. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and the Wabash railroads both cross the town. It was founded in 1868 by Norborne B. Coates, a civil engineer for the railroad, and the Farmers Bank Building made the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.

Towing service and heavy-duty recovery in Hale, MO

Hale lies north-east of Carrollton and south-east of Chillicothe. The town was platted in 1833 and honors John P. Hale, a state legislator. Its school district, Hale R-I, takes in parts of both Carroll and Livingston counties, so a breakdown out here can fall on either side of that line; give us the county as well as the road.

Towing service and heavy-duty recovery in Bogard, MO

Bogard began as Bogard's Mound, after a burial mound near the site that a pioneer named Bogard used as a lookout. The post office opened as Bogard Mound in 1872 and dropped the "Mound" in 1884, the year the town was platted. It lies north of Carrollton and belongs to the Carrollton R-VII school district. Give us the road you took north out of Carrollton and the nearest crossroad.

Towing service and heavy-duty recovery in Tina, MO

Named for Tina Gilchrist, a railroad official's daughter, when it was laid out in 1892, Tina is a village in north-east Carroll County, north of Carrollton and south of Chillicothe. Its post office is older than the plat, dating from 1884. The Tina-Avalon R-II elementary and high schools are here, and the school building is the obvious thing to mention when you call.

What we can do for you here

Carroll County towing — common questions

Can a loaded farm truck be pulled out of a soft field entrance near Norborne?

Yes. Titan Tow & Repair winches out and recovers loaded farm trucks, grain trailers and the pickups pulling them, with heavy wreckers and WreckMaster-certified operators. Norborne is mostly agricultural, with the Missouri River to the south, and field entrances and shoulders around it can go soft after rain. Tell us whether the truck is loaded, how far its wheels are off Route 10 or the county road and whether it is still upright; that decides between a winch-out and a heavy recovery.

Where should a broken-down rig wait near the US-24 and US-65 junction at Carrollton?

As far from the junction and the traffic lanes as it can safely get. Titan Tow & Repair would rather hook a truck well along the shoulder than work in the middle of the intersection where US-24 meets US-65 at Carrollton, the Carroll County seat. Put your hazards on, set out your triangles, and tell us which highway you are on, which way you were heading and whether the trailer is loaded, so we send the right wrecker.

What if my truck stalls on the railroad tracks in Norborne?

Get everyone out and well clear of the tracks first, then call 911 and the emergency number posted at the crossing so the railroad can stop its trains. Titan Tow & Repair can pull the truck off once police or the railroad say it is safe to work there. Two lines, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and the Wabash, pass through Norborne, so tell us the street or road where you crossed and what you are driving. Do not try to push a stalled truck off the rails yourself.

A semi jackknifed on US-24 and US-65 between the Waverly Bridge and Carrollton. Who clears it?

Titan Tow & Repair clears it, day or night. One of its heavy wreckers, or the heavy-duty tow unit, arrives with WreckMaster-certified operators to pull the rig straight and reopen the lanes. Between Carrollton, the county seat, and the Waverly Bridge across the Missouri River, US-24 and US-65 run as a single road, so give dispatch your direction, whether you are nearer the bridge or the town, what is on the trailer and whether cars can still get past. Call (816) 888-8732.
