Roads and landmarks around Riverside in Platte County
Riverside is squeezed between the bluffs and the Missouri River, so the through-routes are narrow and the industrial park at Horizons carries more truck traffic than the road width suggests. Route 9 along the river and the I-635 approach are the main truck routes, and river-bottom ground stays soft long after the rain stops.
Soft ground near the river is the hazard here. If a trailer has sunk rather than slid, say so — it changes the rigging plan.

Towing in Riverside, from Horizons Parkway to the Route 9 river road
I-635 crosses the Missouri River from Kansas into Riverside, and on it the exit number is the clearest way to tell us where you are. Exit 9 is Horizons Parkway and exit 10 is US-69; US-69 then runs with the interstate for a short way and leaves at Route 9, exits 11A and 11B. About a mile further north, I-635 ends at I-29 and US-71, exits 12A and 12B. Give us the last exit you passed and your direction, and whether you are on the ramp or the main line.
Off the interstate, US-69 follows Route 9 east for half a mile, then turns north through Northmoor toward Gladstone. Riverside incorporated in 1951, after both Parkville and Kansas City had shown interest in annexing it, and for years it was known for the Riverside Race Track. Today the Argosy casino stands on the river, and the Renner Village Archeological Site is on the National Register of Historic Places; either one works as a landmark.
Tow trucks and roadside truck repair in Riverside
In Riverside, a car, pickup or van goes on a rollback flatbed if roadside help will not get it moving, and semis, loaded trailers and buses get the heavy wrecker. For a commercial truck with an air, electrical, lighting or tire fault, mobile truck and trailer repair in Riverside brings the service truck to where it stopped. We do not run a repair shop in Riverside; our only premises is the Liberty yard, open at any hour for dropping off or collecting a vehicle.
Riverside semi recovery, from the I-635 bridge to Horizons Parkway
Freight enters Riverside on I-635, which crosses the Missouri River from Kansas and then feeds Horizons Parkway at exit 9, US-69 at exit 10 and Route 9 at exits 11A and 11B before it ends at I-29 and US-71. Horizons Parkway serves the Horizons business park, and the town lies between the bluffs and the river, where the low ground along Route 9 and near the Argosy casino stays soft well after rain. If a box truck, a bus, a dump truck or an 18-wheeler quits there, Titan Tow & Repair takes on the heavy-duty towing with whichever fits the load, a heavy wrecker or its heavy-duty tow unit. A rig that has sunk, jackknifed or rolled over is rigged by WreckMaster-certified operators for the winch-out, uprighting or full accident recovery.
Cars and pickups get help in Riverside as well. A car nosed into a ditch or a pickup spinning in mud or snow is winched free, and anything that cannot be driven afterward goes on a rollback flatbed. Dispatch sends every truck from the Liberty yard, 24 hours a day. Tell the dispatcher the last I-635 exit you passed and your direction, or name a landmark such as Park Hill South High School or the Argosy casino, and say if the trailer has freight on it or is running empty.

Towing in Riverside: common questions
Do you cover the Riverside industrial park?
Yes. We cover the Horizons industrial area and the Route 9 corridor 24 hours a day from the Liberty yard, and a truck is usually with you within about 60 minutes. Horizons is a modern distribution park with its own parkway and I-635 interchange, so access is easy once you tell us the building. The constraint there is usually finding the right dock, not getting into the site.
Can you recover a trailer that has sunk in soft ground near the river?
Yes. River-bottom ground around Riverside stays soft long after the rain stops, and a trailer that has sunk needs a different rigging plan than one that has slid — the pull has to come from a different angle and often needs matting under it first. Tell us how deep it is sitting, whether it is loaded and whether the drive axles are still on firm ground.
