Services

Eight services, one yard, one phone number

Titan Tow & Repair provides eight services across Kansas City, northwest Missouri and northeast Kansas, on both sides of the state line: heavy-duty towing, mobile truck repair, trailer repair, mobile tire service, fleet and commercial towing, winch-outs and accident recovery, light-duty flatbed towing, and RV and motorhome towing. All eight run 24 hours a day from one yard in Liberty, Missouri, on (816) 888-8732.

Heavy-duty towing

A loaded tractor-trailer is not a bigger car. It needs a rated wrecker, a rated operator and a plan before anything gets hooked. That is what we send.

Mobile truck repair

Our service truck carries the parts and the tools. Faster for your driver, cheaper for your office, and the load keeps moving.

Mobile trailer repair

Most trailer faults do not stop a trailer moving. They stop it being legal to move, which is worse — the load sits while the paperwork says it cannot go anywhere.

Winch-outs & recovery

Bad rigging wrecks loads and hurts people. Recovery is the part of this job where training is the whole difference.

Mobile tire service

A blown tire is the most common thing that stops a truck, and the one most often fixed on the shoulder. We bring the tire to you rather than the truck to a shop.

Light-duty towing

The same yard that runs the heavy wreckers runs the rollbacks, so a car gets the same answer at 3am that a semi does.

RV & motorhome towing

A motorhome is a house built on a truck chassis, and the chassis decides the tow. Tell us the class and the length, and the truck that fits it is the one that leaves the yard.

Picking the right service

Most calls sort themselves out with one question: what are you driving, and is it drivable? A semi, box truck, bus or loaded trailer that needs to move is heavy-duty towing. A car, pickup or van is light-duty flatbed work — and if you are unsure whether yours needs a flatbed specifically, the guide to flatbeds versus wreckers settles it in two minutes. An RV, motorhome or camper sits across both, so it has its own page: RV and motorhome towing explains which class goes on which truck.

If the vehicle will not move but is not going anywhere either — in a ditch, off a dock, buried in mud or snow — that is winch-out and recovery, which is separate work from the tow that may follow it. And if the truck simply will not run, it may not need towing at all: a large share of breakdowns are air leaks, batteries, starters and brake chambers that mobile truck repair fixes at the roadside for less than a tow-plus-shop bill.

Companies running trucks across the metro should look at fleet and commercial towing — one account, one number, dispatch by unit number instead of a payment conversation on the shoulder. Pricing, insurance and response-time questions for all eight are answered on the FAQ page, and the service area shows how far each of them reaches.

Every one of these runs from the same yard at 2751 Liberty Landing Rd., staffed around the clock — the truck that answers a 2 a.m. call is the same truck that answers a 2 p.m. one. Being based in Liberty puts us minutes from the I-35 and Route 291 corridors, which is why response times hold up across Kansas City, the Northland and the towns along I-35 as far as St. Joseph. Wherever you are stopped, the number is the same, and a person answers it.

Service by city

The pages people search for

Where a service and a city both matter, they have their own page — the corridors, the interchanges and the failure modes for that combination rather than a generic list.

Heavy-duty towing in Kansas City

Kansas City is a freight city before it is anything else, and a heavy call here is usually an interstate call in traffic. Where the unit sits decides everything about how it comes out.

Mobile truck repair in Kansas City

A tow is the expensive answer to a breakdown. It is also often the wrong one. If the fault can be fixed where the truck is standing, that is the call we would rather make.

Heavy-duty towing in Liberty

This is home. The yard is inside the city, so a Liberty call does not start with a drive — and a vehicle can be dropped to us or collected at any hour.

Winch-outs & recovery in Kansas City

A recovery is a rigging problem, not a strength contest. The angle, the anchor and the sequence are what decide whether the unit comes out undamaged.

Mobile truck repair in Riverside

Riverside runs on regional distribution rather than long-haul, and that changes what fails. Short runs, repeated cold starts and a lot of low-speed yard maneuvering produce a different fault list than a truck that has just come 600 miles on the interstate.

Mobile truck repair in Liberty

A breakdown in Liberty is the one call where the service truck is already in town. That takes the distance out of the decision, so the question is only about the fault: whether it can be fixed where the unit sits, or whether it has to be towed.

Heavy-duty towing in Kansas City, KS

The state line is the only thing about this side of the metro that looks simple on a map. Which agency runs the scene, which number you dial and where the mile markers start all change the moment a truck stops in Wyandotte County.

Heavy-duty towing in St. Joseph

St. Joseph is the top of the run, not another metro suburb, and a call up here is a real drive for us. That is exactly why describing the unit accurately matters more here than anywhere else we cover — we would far rather get it right on the phone than arrive with the wrong truck.

Heavy-duty towing in Oak Grove

From Route 7 in Blue Springs, I-70 is down to two lanes each way, and at Oak Grove it leaves Jackson County for gently rolling country. A tractor-trailer that stops in a lane out there has shut half its side of the interstate, so on an Oak Grove call we ask where the rig is sitting before we ask what it is.

Heavy-duty towing in Topeka

Topeka is where I-70 turns into a toll road on its way east, and where the interstate squeezes through downtown on a viaduct while I-470 loops around the south side. Which of those roads a truck stopped on decides who runs the scene and which way the wrecker comes in.

Mobile truck repair in St. Joseph

A roadside repair in St. Joseph starts with reaching the truck, and the city has its own ways of making that harder: I-229 ramps that only work in one direction, US highways whose exits carry no numbers, and plant gates that want a name before they open. Get those right on the phone and the repair itself goes faster.

Mobile truck repair in Topeka

Topeka is the Kansas capital, but behind the statehouse it is a freight town, with BNSF as its biggest transportation employer and I-70, I-470 and I-335 all running through it. The repair that keeps that freight moving happens wherever the truck gave out: a turnpike service area, a plant dock or the shoulder of the loop.

Winch-outs & recovery in St. Joseph

St. Joseph sits on the Missouri River with farm fields past the edge of town, and the two catch trucks in different ways. River bottom stays soft long after the water has gone; a field beside a rural interchange looks firm until a loaded axle breaks through the crust. The ground decides where the anchor goes before anything is pulled.
