Call live Kansas City dispatch at 816-588-8888 for current availability.
Local dispatch starts with the exact pickup
Lee's Summit requests can involve I-470 and U.S. 50 interchanges, state highways, busy city arterials, downtown streets, neighborhoods, lake-area roads, construction, and unimproved shoulders.

Tommy's accepts customer-requested inquiries for Lee's Summit, Missouri.

Road environments around Lee's Summit
MO 291 through Lee's Summit
MO 291 runs north-south through commercial and residential areas and crosses U.S. 50. Include northbound or southbound, the nearest signal or interchange, and the exact driveway, lot, or shoulder.
MO 150 and southern access
MO 150 crosses the southern part of the city and reaches areas near Pryor Road, Ward Road, and MO 291. A mailing address alone may not reveal the safest approach, so share a map pin, cross streets, surface, and any construction or gate condition.
MO 350 and the northwest approach
MO 350 connects Lee's Summit with Raytown and I-435. Give direction, nearest interchange or cross street, shoulder side, and whether the vehicle is on the main road, a ramp, frontage access, or nearby property.
Directional street prefixes
Lee's Summit addresses use NE, NW, SE, or SW prefixes. Include the prefix in both the pickup address and cross street—for example, NE Todd George Parkway or SW Pryor Road—because leaving it out can identify the wrong side of the city.
Downtown, neighborhoods, and edge roads
Downtown streets, Longview-area roads, neighborhood cul-de-sacs, lake-area access, steep ditches, and unimproved shoulders have different loading conditions. Report parking position, width, slope, surface, overhead limits, and room to approach or turn around.
What to tell dispatch
- Say 'Lee's Summit, Missouri' and share a verified address or map pin
- Include every NE, NW, SE, or SW prefix in the street name and cross street
- On I-470, U.S. 50, MO 291, MO 150, or MO 350, give direction, nearest exit, and shoulder or ramp position
- Identify a driveway, lot entrance, frontage access, bridge, gate, neighborhood entrance, or recognizable cross street
- Describe the vehicle, keys, drivetrain, damage or leaks, and whether it rolls, steers, and brakes
- State whether police, fire, property security, MoDOT, a railroad, or another tow provider controls access
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, impound, or statutory charges are not presented here as Tommy's voluntary-service rates.

Local scene safety
Call 911 for injury, fire, hazardous material, a vehicle blocking a live lane, or immediate danger. When a crash has no apparent serious injury or death and the vehicle can move safely, Missouri law generally requires reasonable efforts to move it from the travel lane to a safe location. Move as far onto the right shoulder as safely possible, activate hazard lights, and stay inside when exiting would expose you to traffic. Do not change a tire beside a live lane. Missouri's *55 reaches the State Highway Patrol for highway assistance.
Questions drivers ask
What location details should I give dispatch in Lee's Summit?
Give the complete address with NE, NW, SE, or SW prefix, road direction, nearest exit or cross street, exact shoulder or parking position, map pin, vehicle description, and visible hazards.
What should I do during a highway breakdown?
Move as far right and out of traffic as safely possible, activate flashers, and remain inside when exiting would expose you to moving traffic. Do not attempt a tire change beside an active lane. Call 911 for injury or immediate danger.
Should I move my vehicle after a minor crash?
When a crash has no apparent serious injury or death and the vehicle can move safely, Missouri law generally requires reasonable efforts to move it from the travel lane to a safe location. If the vehicle cannot move safely or anyone may be hurt, call 911 and follow scene instructions.
Can I request a towing company after a crash?
Ask the officer or scene authority whether a customer-requested provider may respond. Police, fire, highway personnel, traffic hazards, legal authority, insurance handling, and vehicle condition can control access and removal.
How can I ask about a police-directed tow in Lee's Summit?
Use the Police Department's current FAQ and contact information to ask which unit or provider can help; the linked pages do not advertise a dedicated online tow locator. Have the plate, VIN if available, vehicle description, and last known location. An already-impounded vehicle is separate from ordering voluntary roadside service, and Tommy's cannot release a vehicle held by another provider.
What if a vehicle was removed from private property?
Check the posted towing notice, obtain the towing company's information, keep receipts and photographs, and review Missouri DOR abandoned-property resources promptly. Dispute and hearing deadlines may be short. This page provides general information, not legal advice.
Where can I check current road closures?
Use the City's road-closure page for current local information and MoDOT's Traveler Information Map for state highways, incidents, cameras, work zones, and weather. Conditions and dates change, so verify them at the time of travel.
