When Standard Isn't Enough
Class 8 trucks, motorhomes, and rolled rigs need heavy-duty wrecker service.
A grain truck jackknifes on Highway 71 during harvest season. A fifth-wheel motorhome loses brakes on I-435. A commercial box truck tips on a residential street. These calls don't go to a light-duty wheel-lift. They need rotators, heavy-duty wreckers, and operators trained in complex recovery.
When you call Kansas City Tow Truck with a heavy-duty situation, the operator asks for vehicle make, length, GVWR, and what went wrong. That information routes the right rig from the network. You get an upfront quote, realistic arrival time, and confirmation before any equipment rolls. Pricing on heavy-duty towing typically ranges $80 to $150 for the initial hook-up, then $3 to $6 per kilometre. After-hours calls between 10 PM and 6 AM may carry a $20 to $50 surcharge, stated before work begins. Our heavy-duty towing page walks through the full scope. For accident scenes, see our collision recovery service. Commercial fleets can set up account-managed towing for priority routing.
