Roads and landmarks around Plattsburg in Clinton County

Plattsburg is the Clinton County seat, north of us on the far side of the I-35 corridor. Route 116 runs east through town and meets Route 33, and the two run together across to Lathrop where the nearest interstate access is, at I-35 Exit 40. So a Plattsburg call is an interstate run followed by a stretch of two-lane, and the second half is what sets the timing.

Nearest interstate access is I-35 at Lathrop rather than anything in town, so tell us whether you are in Plattsburg itself or out on the Route 116 stretch.

Towing in Plattsburg, the Clinton County seat

Plattsburg was first called Concord, then Springfield, and finally took the name of Plattsburgh, New York; Clinton County, like its New York namesake, is named for George Clinton. In the 1830s the town held a federal land office for the northern Missouri country opened to settlement by the Platte Purchase, and when Kansas City was a major beef processing center, Plattsburg was known as the Beef Capital of the World. David Rice Atchison, US senator from 1844 to 1855, lived here and is buried here.

In town, Route 116 meets Route C and crosses the Little Platte River, which runs south-west below Plattsburg after Horse Fork joins it from the east side of town. Leaving eastbound, the highway jogs a mile north-east before the Route 33 junction. Westbound, Route 116 runs about six miles to US-169, the road south to Smithville and north toward St. Joseph. Either side of town, a route letter or a named creek crossing places you better than a mailbox number.

Heavy-duty towing and big rig recovery on Route 116 at Plattsburg

Plattsburg has no interstate exit, so heavy trucks reach it on Route 116. From the west, it runs about six miles in from US-169. From the east, it leaves I-35 at Exit 40, passes through Lathrop and shares five miles with Route 33 before the two split roughly two miles northeast of town, where Route 33 turns north for 13 miles to US-36. In town, Route 116 meets Route C and crosses the Little Platte River, and Horse Fork runs down the east side to join it. A big rig, bus, dump truck or box truck in trouble on any of those roads is a job for Titan Tow & Repair's heavy wreckers or its heavy-duty tow unit; WreckMaster-certified operators set the rigging, stand a rolled unit back up and take on accident recovery.

Passenger vehicles are covered the same way. If a car or pickup slides into a ditch or sinks in mud or snow on a county road outside Plattsburg, a winch-out sets it back on solid ground, and a rollback flatbed carries it if it will not start or steer. Tell dispatch the road, your direction, the last junction you passed (Route C, Route 33, US-169 or the Lathrop turn), and whether any truck involved is carrying a load. Heavy-duty towing and flatbed calls go out from Liberty, where a person answers 24 hours a day.

Towing in Plattsburg: common questions

Do you tow in Plattsburg?

Yes, 24 hours a day. Plattsburg is inside our service area north of Liberty, reached by I-35 to Lathrop and then Route 116 east, and we cover heavy, medium and light duty as well as recovery. There is no interstate access in the town itself, so tell us whether you are in Plattsburg proper near the Route 33 junction or out on the Route 116 stretch.

Can you recover a truck on the two-lane roads around Plattsburg?

Yes. We handle off-the-edge recoveries on the roads between Plattsburg and Lathrop, including at the Little Platte River crossings, where the ground either side stays soft. A photo of how the unit is sitting tells us more than a description does and helps us pick the truck and rigging before we leave, which matters on a run this far north.
