Tommy's accepts customer-requested inquiries for Clay County, Missouri. This page does not claim countywide guaranteed coverage, a Clay County office or permit, a truck stationed in the county, police tow rotation, public-agency affiliation, County road authority, or completed work in every listed community. Live dispatch must confirm lawful authority, the exact pickup, current operating range, equipment, access, destination, and price before assignment.

Clay County road and pickup contexts

I-35, I-29, and river approaches

I-35 and I-29 share closely spaced North Kansas City and Kansas City approaches before separating. Bridges, ramps, industrial streets, and direction changes require the exact interstate, direction, signed exit, ramp movement, and shoulder side.

Liberty and MO 291

I-35, U.S. 69, MO 33, MO 152, and MO 291 serve Liberty commercial, residential, campus, and industrial areas. Report the route, direction, cross street or interchange, exact entrance, and whether rail or construction access is involved.

U.S. 169, Smithville, and north county

U.S. 169, MO 92, MO 152, Smithville, and rural north-county roads include high-speed segments, curves, bridges, lake approaches, gravel, and ditches. Share direction, nearest junction, surface, slope, and a precise pin.

MO 9 and western Clay County

MO 9/Burlington, North Kansas City, Avondale, and western county routes combine urban arterials, river and rail approaches, industrial access, and city-boundary changes. Name the municipality, road, direction, and public entrance.

Kansas City, Gladstone, and boundary streets

Kansas City, Gladstone, Pleasant Valley, and nearby communities share mailing areas and boundary corridors. Give the municipality, ZIP code, cross street, lot or building entrance, and map pin instead of relying on a neighborhood name.

Unincorporated roads and agency ownership

Clay County Road & Bridge maintains roads it controls in unincorporated areas; cities maintain city streets and MoDOT maintains interstate, U.S., and Missouri-numbered highways. Confirm the jurisdiction before relying on closure, maintenance, or access information.

What to tell dispatch

  • Name the exact Clay County city or say that the pickup is in an unincorporated area.
  • For I-35, I-29, I-435, U.S. 69, or U.S. 169, give direction, exit or marker, mainline or ramp, shoulder side, and a map pin.
  • Distinguish MO 9, MO 92, MO 152, MO 291, the exact municipality, and the public or private entrance.
  • Report wheels, tires, steering, brakes, keys, crash damage, leaks, vehicle size, surface, grade, and whether the vehicle can roll.
  • Name the destination and confirm that the property or receiving facility authorizes access and can accept the vehicle.
  • Check the County road map, Missouri Traveler Information Map, and correct city; call 911 for immediate danger and never cross live traffic.

Ask live dispatch to confirm the complete price before assignment. Pickup, destination, mileage, access, roadside materials, loading or recovery work, waiting, tolls, storage, and required equipment can affect the estimate. Police-directed, impound, abandoned-property, or statutory charges are not presented here as Tommy's voluntary-service rates.

Common road-rescue requests

Roadside safety

Call 911 for injury, fire, hazardous spill, a vehicle blocking a live lane, or another immediate danger. On I-35, I-29, I-435, U.S. 69, U.S. 169, a bridge, or a ramp, do not cross lanes, stand in a gore point, or walk along a narrow shoulder. Follow responder, MoDOT, City, County, property, and facility instructions and stay clear of traffic-facing wheels and the loading path.

Questions drivers ask

Does this page guarantee service everywhere in Clay County?

No. It is an inquiry guide. Dispatch must confirm the exact pickup, current operating range, lawful authority, truck and equipment availability, access, destination, and price.

Does Tommy's have a Clay County office or county contract?

This page makes neither claim. It also does not claim police rotation, public-agency affiliation, county-road authority, or a truck stationed in the county.

Why must I name the city inside Clay County?

Kansas City, Liberty, Gladstone, North Kansas City, Kearney, Smithville, Excelsior Springs, smaller communities, and unincorporated areas can have different road owners, access rules, police jurisdictions, and destinations.

Who maintains the road where I am stopped?

Clay County states that its Road & Bridge Department maintains roads it controls in unincorporated areas, cities maintain streets within city limits, and MoDOT maintains interstate, U.S., and Missouri-numbered highways.

What should I report from I-35 or U.S. 169?

Give the exact route, direction, exit or mile marker, mainline or ramp, shoulder side, nearest landmark, vehicle description, and a map pin. Do not cross traffic to meet a truck.

Can Tommy's handle a police-directed or impound tow?

This page covers customer-requested inquiries and does not claim police rotation, municipal contract, impound authority, or custody of a vehicle held by another provider. Contact the responsible agency or storage operator.

How much does a Clay County tow cost?

Price is job-specific. Dispatch must confirm pickup, destination, mileage, access, loading or recovery, waiting, tolls, storage, roadside materials, and required equipment before assignment.
