Roads and landmarks around Lathrop in Clinton County

Lathrop sits on the south side of the intersection of Route 33 and Route 116, three miles west of I-35, so getting here means the interstate to Exit 40 and a short hop west into town. Route 116 carries on west to Plattsburg, the county seat, and Route 33 runs south to Holt on the Clay County line. The town was platted in 1867 as a stop on the Cameron Cutoff Branch of the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad, and in the early 1900s it was known as the Mule Capital of the World, when the firm of Guyton and Harrington sold mules and horses to the British Army during the First World War. Mule Barn Road, east of town, keeps the name. Beyond the state routes the roads are rural, and a wheel off the edge after rain calls for a winch-out, not just a hook.

Say which road you are on: I-35, Route 33 or Route 116. On the interstate, the mile marker and direction of travel place you; in town, the Route 33 and Route 116 intersection or the nearest cross street does the job.

Semi towing and truck recovery at I-35 Exit 40 and Lathrop

Truck traffic reaches Lathrop from I-35. Route 116 leaves the interstate at Exit 40, three miles east of town, and runs west past the south side of Lake McGinness; about two miles east of the interchange it meets US-69 at a roundabout by the Clinton–Caldwell county line. West of Lathrop, Route 116 and Route 33 share one road for about five miles toward Plattsburg, and Route 33 also heads south past Lake Arrowhead to Holt. Stalled semis, tractor-trailers, buses and dump trucks on those roads get heavy-duty towing from Titan Tow & Repair: a heavy wrecker comes up from Liberty, or the heavy-duty tow unit if it suits the load, and our WreckMaster-certified operators rig whatever the scene needs, from a straight winch-out to uprighting a trailer or full accident recovery.

A car or pickup that has slid off Route 33, Route 116 or Mule Barn Road into a ditch, soft mud or drifted snow is winched back to the road, and a rollback flatbed hauls it away if it will not run. When you call about a Lathrop breakdown, give dispatch the road, your heading, the closest landmark (Exit 40, the US-69 roundabout or the spot where the two state routes join) and whether you are hauling a load. Our Liberty yard sends trucks out 24 hours a day, and a person answers.

Towing in Lathrop: common questions

Which direction will the wrecker come from if I break down near I-35 Exit 40 at Lathrop?

From the south. Titan Tow & Repair dispatches from Liberty, so the truck comes north on I-35 past Kearney. In the northbound lanes it can pull up behind you; in the southbound lanes the driver has to get turned around before reaching you, which is why your direction of travel matters as much as the mile marker. Tell us, too, whether you are on the interstate itself, on a ramp or on the road into Lathrop, and what the vehicle is and whether it is loaded.

My pickup died on Route 33 south of Lathrop in the middle of the night. Will a person answer?

Yes. Titan Tow & Repair answers (816) 888-8732 around the clock, and a person picks up, not a voicemail box. Route 33 runs south from Lathrop to Holt on the Clay County line, so tell us which town you are nearer, whether the pickup is on the pavement or off the edge, and whether a trailer is hitched. A rollback flatbed carries a pickup with all four wheels off the road. If it is a dead battery, a flat or a thrown belt, the mobile service truck may get you going where you sit.
