Roads and landmarks around Independence in Jackson County
Independence is one of the two county seats of Jackson County, and a small part of the city extends into Clay County. I-70 connects it with Kansas City, Columbia and St. Louis, and I-470 follows Route 291 south from 39th Street and I-70 into Lee’s Summit. Route 291, once the US-71 Bypass, links Independence with Sugar Creek and Liberty over the Liberty Bend Bridge. On I-70, the Noland Road and Route 291 interchanges are the landmarks to give us.
On I-70 the priority is getting your driver off the live lane before anything else. Triangles out, get behind the barrier, then call.

Towing in Independence, the Queen City of the Trails
Independence is known as the Queen City of the Trails because the California, Oregon and Santa Fe Trails set out from it. US-24, known in town as Winner Road and Independence Avenue, links it with Kansas City and Buckner, forms part of the northern border with Sugar Creek and passes the Fairmount Business District, the Truman Presidential Library and Museum and William Chrisman High School, north of the Independence Square. US-40 forms part of the southern border with Kansas City and carries on to Blue Springs.
Truman Road connects Independence with downtown Kansas City: it enters the city with Route 12, passes Van Horn High School, the Maywood Business District, the Truman home and the Square, and leaves with Route FF. Route 7 links US-24 with Blue Springs past the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, and I-435 runs just outside the western city limits. The Harry S. Truman National Historic Site, the Community of Christ Temple and the Temple Lot are fixed points any driver can name when an address is not to hand.
Semi towing and heavy recovery on I-70 and Route 291 in Independence
I-70 crosses Independence east of I-435 and meets I-470 at a busy cloverleaf southwest of the Independence Center mall, where I-470 and Route 291 turn south together toward Lee’s Summit. Past that interchange the interstate keeps six lanes on to Blue Springs. North of I-70, Route 291 passes over a Kansas City Southern line by Van Hook Park and a Union Pacific line just before Truman Road, then reaches US-24, while Route 7 runs by the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant. Wherever an 18-wheeler, coach, dump truck or box van comes to a stop along them, Titan Tow & Repair can put a heavy wrecker on it, and WreckMaster-certified operators rig the winch-out, stand a toppled trailer back up or clear the accident scene.
Heavy-duty towing is not the whole list. A car nosed into a culvert, or a pickup stuck in mud or snow or halfway down an embankment, is winched back to the pavement as a vehicle recovery, and a rollback flatbed takes it wherever you say. The wrecker reaches Independence from the Liberty yard over the Liberty Bend Bridge on Route 291, day or night. On the phone, give the road, your direction, the closest interchange (Noland Road, Route 291, 39th Street, Truman Road or US-24) and whether you are hauling freight or running empty.

Towing in Independence: common questions
Do you tow on I-70 through Independence?
Yes, 24 hours a day in both directions, including the Noland Road and Route 291 interchanges. Give us the exit or mile marker, your direction and whether you are on the shoulder or in a lane. A loaded unit gets the heavy wrecker; an air, brake or tire fault may be a roadside repair instead. A truck is usually with you within about 60 minutes, with a real ETA on the phone.
How quickly can you reach Independence at night?
A truck is usually with you within about 60 minutes at any hour, and the ETA you get on the phone at 3am is a real one. Titan Tow & Repair is staffed 24 hours a day, so a person answers rather than an answering service taking a message for the morning. Tell us the road, the nearest exit or cross street, and what you are driving.
Who clears a semi stuck at the I-70 and I-470 cloverleaf in Independence?
Titan Tow & Repair does, at any hour, with a heavy wrecker or the heavy-duty tow unit coming from Liberty over the Liberty Bend Bridge on Route 291. The cloverleaf sits southwest of the Independence Center mall, where I-470 and Route 291 meet I-70, so tell dispatch which ramp or loop the truck is on, the direction it was heading, whether it is loaded or empty and whether anything is leaking. Call (816) 888-8732.
