Roads and landmarks around Agency in Buchanan County
Agency was a ford on the Platte River before it was a settlement, and it was laid out in 1865 on the former site of an agency for the Sac and Fox Indians, which is where the name comes from. The village sits south-east of St. Joseph, with Easton to the north-east, Gower to the east, De Kalb to the south-west and Dearborn to the south. The main roads nearby tie those towns to St. Joseph and Kansas City. US-169 and I-29 both run between the two cities, Route 31 crosses Easton on its way between US-36 and US-169, and Route Z and Route Y serve Dearborn, just east of US-71. The Platte River is the feature to plan around, because a vehicle that leaves the road near the water usually needs a winch-out before it can be towed.
Give dispatch the road you are on and the last town you passed, whether that was Easton, Gower, Dearborn or St. Joseph. If you are near the Platte River, say which side of it you are on, because the river decides which way our truck comes in.

Truck recovery and heavy-duty towing by the Platte River at Agency
Agency grew up at a ford on the Platte River, and the river is still what shapes a heavy job here. The village lies southeast of St. Joseph in Buchanan County, with US-169 and I-29 nearby, both running between St. Joseph and Kansas City, and Route 31 leaving US-169 southeast of the city to head north through Easton to US-36. For an 18-wheeler, bus or loaded dump truck that breaks down, jackknifes or leaves the pavement in this corner of the county, Titan Tow & Repair brings the heavy-duty tow unit or a heavy wrecker. Its WreckMaster-certified operators anchor on firm ground and set up the winch-out, the uprighting or the accident recovery, which matters when a unit has slid down toward the water.
Cars and pickups get the same help, whether one is nose-down in a ditch, stuck at a muddy field edge or buried in a snowbank: the vehicle is pulled free, then loaded on a rollback flatbed if it cannot be driven. When you call from Agency, name the road, your direction, the last place you went through (Gower, Easton, Dearborn or St. Joseph), which bank of the Platte you are on, and whether the truck is hauling a load or running empty. Heavy-duty towing and light-duty calls both leave the Liberty yard 24 hours a day.

Towing in Agency: common questions
My car slid off toward the Platte River near Agency. Can it be winched back up?
Yes. Titan Tow & Repair winches cars, pickups and trucks out of mud around Agency, including vehicles that have slid off toward the Platte River, the river Agency first grew up beside as a ford. Tell dispatch how far the vehicle is from the pavement, whether there is standing water around it and whether it is still upright. The wrecker or rollback flatbed works from firm ground with its winch line, then carries the car to the garage you choose. If anyone is hurt or the vehicle is in the water, call 911 first.
Which roads should I mention if I break down between Agency and St. Joseph?
Name the numbered highway first, then the last town you passed. Titan Tow & Repair dispatches to any road between Agency and St. Joseph around the clock, and the main routes are US-169 and I-29, which both run from Kansas City up to St. Joseph, and Route 31 through Easton, which links US-36 and US-169. On I-29, add your direction and the mile marker or the last exit. On a county road, a crossroad name, a farm entrance or a church tells us more than a guess at the distance.
