Call live Kansas City dispatch at 816-588-8888 for current availability.
Olathe calls can involve interstate shoulders, three distinct I-35 interchanges, high-volume state routes, city arterials, active railroad crossings, business entrances, neighborhoods, and rapidly developing southern corridors. An exact route, direction, interchange, cross street, and map pin matter more than an Olathe ZIP code alone.
Tommy's accepts customer-requested inquiries for Olathe, Kansas. This page does not claim an Olathe office, City towing license, Kansas certificate, police rotation, KDOT or KHP affiliation, or a truck stationed nearby. Live dispatch must confirm lawful service authority, pickup access, availability, equipment, destination, and price before assignment.
I-35 at 119th Street, Santa Fe Street, and Old 56 Highway/Mahaffie Street are separate dispatch areas. Give direction, nearest exit, full ramp movement, and whether the vehicle reached a right shoulder, median, frontage road, or lot.
Within Olathe, K-7 is also identified as Parker Street. South of the I-35 interchange, K-7 runs concurrently with U.S. 169. Repeat the exact route name shown on the nearest sign, direction, and cross street so dispatch does not infer the wrong segment.
For K-10 and nearby interchanges, report eastbound or westbound, the nearest exit, shoulder side, and whether the pickup is actually inside Olathe or in an adjacent Johnson County jurisdiction.
Useful city cues include 119th, 127th, Santa Fe/135th, 143rd/Dennis, 151st, 159th, Lone Elm, Ridgeview, Black Bob, Mur-Len, Quivira, Woodland, and Kansas City Road. Include the full intersection and entrance.
Near a railroad crossing, identify the crossing street, which side of the tracks the vehicle is on, whether a train is blocking access, and any gate or industrial-property instructions.
Newer neighborhoods, construction zones, unimproved edges, and county transitions south of central Olathe can make a mailing address unreliable. Share a map pin, cross streets, surface, slope, and safe approach route.
Ask live dispatch to confirm the complete price before assignment. Pickup, destination, mileage, access, roadside materials, loading or recovery work, waiting, tolls, and required equipment can affect the estimate. Government-posted or impound rates are not Tommy's voluntary-service rates.

Call 911 for injury, airbag deployment, a nondrivable vehicle in danger, hazardous material, fire, or occupants who cannot exit safely. When nobody appears injured and the vehicle can move safely under its own power, Kansas law generally requires reasonable efforts to clear an obstructed interstate, U.S. highway, or multilane road. If exiting is unsafe, remain buckled, activate hazard lights, and follow 911 or law-enforcement instructions.
Share the road, direction, nearest exit or intersection, exact shoulder or parking position, map pin, and vehicle details. On K-7, also say whether the sign shows U.S. 169 or Parker Street.
When nobody appears injured, no hazardous material is involved, and the vehicle can move safely under its own power, Kansas law generally requires reasonable efforts to clear an obstructed interstate, U.S. highway, or multilane road. Call 911 when safety is uncertain.
Call for injury, airbag deployment, fire, hazardous material, a nondrivable vehicle in a dangerous position, or whenever occupants cannot exit or wait safely.
Kansas requires approaching drivers to move into a nonadjacent lane when safely possible—or slow and proceed cautiously—when a stopped vehicle displays hazard lights, flares, cones, caution signs, or reflective triangles.
Use the City's dated road-closure page for local streets and KanDrive or 511 for current state-highway conditions, cameras, weather, incidents, and detours. Temporary information should always be rechecked.
For a police-directed removal—or a qualifying private-property removal whose operator is unclear—Olathe Police non-emergency may be able to identify the responsible operator. Use the City's current Police contact page and provide the plate, VIN if available, vehicle description, and last known location. For a voluntary tow, contact the provider you authorized. An already-removed vehicle is separate from ordering roadside service.
Possibly. Kansas law permits an out-of-state destination with consent from the driver or owner, their motor club, or the insurer processing the claim or its agent, as applicable. Availability, route, destination, and price must also be confirmed.
