Roads and landmarks around Smithville in Clay and Platte Counties
Smithville splits into two kinds of work. On US-169 it is commercial — trucks running between the north metro and St. Joseph. Around the lake it is boats, trailers and pickups, and vehicles that have dropped a wheel off a gravel launch approach or a campground track.
Boat and camper trailers need a different hook than a car does. Tell us what is attached and whether it can be unhitched where it sits.

Tow truck service in Smithville, from US-169 to the lake
Smithville lies along the Little Platte River in western Clay County and reaches over the line into Platte County. US-169 crosses the whole city on its west side, divided in the southernmost quarter and undivided in the north half. Coming up from the metro, it leaves the Arrowhead Trafficway at I-435 as a four-lane divided expressway, and north of Smithville it turns into a two-lane rural highway through Trimble and Gower to St. Joseph. On US-169, tell us your direction and the nearest cross street.
Route 92 crosses the southern third of the city, west to Platte City and east past the south side of Smithville Lake to I-35 and Route 33 at Kearney. Main Street downtown is Route DD, which carries on east toward the lake. In the north-east, the unsigned Route F follows North Bridge Street, East 1st Street, Spelman Drive and Northeast 172nd Street, and Route KK is a short route in the north-west. The lake is the Little Platte itself, dammed just east of the city.
Roadside assistance in Smithville: jump starts, tires and lockouts
Not every call in Smithville needs a tow. A dead battery in a driveway off Route DD, a flat on US-169 or a locked door at the lake gets roadside assistance first: a jump start, a tire change or a lockout, done where the vehicle sits. If it will not start or steer after that, a rollback flatbed or the heavy wrecker takes over, and dispatch tells you which one is coming.
Car, pickup and semi towing in Smithville
Smithville is named for Humphrey “Yankee” Smith, who settled at the site in 1822; the town was first known as Smith’s Mill, and its downtown is a historic district on the National Register. If a car or pickup there is still dead after we have tried to start it, change the tire or open the door, it rides a rollback flatbed to your mechanic, a dealer or our Liberty yard. On US-169, a semi or loaded trailer is towed by the heavy wrecker unless its air, tire or electrical fault can be repaired on the shoulder.
Smithville car towing and roadside assistance, from the lake parks to the school lots
Smithville Lake covers 7,190 acres behind an earthen dam about 4,000 feet long, and the Jerry L. Litton Visitor Center sits by the dam. The Clay County parks around the lake include Camp Branch Park, Crows Creek Park, Little Platte Park and Smith's Fork City Park. In town, Smithville High School and a Mid-Continent Public Library branch are fixed points. At the lake, name the park you are in; in town, name the school or library and the nearest cross street.
A car or pickup with a dead battery or a flat in a park lot is a roadside call first: a jump start, a tire change, or a lockout where we can do one. If it will not go, flatbed towing for cars puts it on a rollback and takes it to your mechanic, a dealer or home. A truck with an air or electrical fault may get a repair where it sits.

Towing in Smithville: common questions
Can you recover a truck and trailer at Smithville Lake?
Yes. A vehicle stuck on a launch approach or campground track around Smithville Lake is a winch-out, and it is usually a traction problem rather than a weight one. Tell us what is hitched to the vehicle and whether it can be unhitched where it sits — a boat or camper trailer needs a different hook than a car does, and unhitching in place often turns one recovery into two simple pulls.
Do you cover US-169 through Smithville?
Yes. US-169 is one of the corridors we cover between the north metro and St. Joseph, and Smithville sits on it where Route 92 and Route DD come in. It is a mixed stretch — farm traffic, lake traffic and through freight — so tell us what you are driving as well as where you are.
Is there a 24-hour towing service in Smithville, MO?
Yes. Titan Tow & Repair covers Smithville 24 hours a day from its yard in Liberty, and a person answers (816) 888-8732 at any hour. Cars and pickups ride a rollback flatbed, a semi or loaded trailer on US-169 gets the heavy wrecker, and an air, tire or electrical fault may be repaired on the shoulder instead. Tell us the road, your direction and the nearest cross street.
How far around Smithville do you tow?
About 50 miles in every direction. Smithville is one of the centers of our service area: we cover roughly 50 miles around it, as we do around St. Joseph and Cameron, on top of the Kansas City metro and about 60 miles around the Liberty yard. Every service, car and pickup towing included, runs across all of it, 24 hours a day. Call (816) 888-8732 with where you are and where the vehicle is going.
Who offers towing services and roadside assistance in Smithville, MO?
Titan Tow & Repair does, 24 hours a day, from its yard in Liberty. One call to (816) 888-8732 reaches a person who sends the right truck: a rollback flatbed for a car or pickup, the heavy wrecker for a semi, and a jump start, tire change or lockout where that will get you moving. Give the road, your direction and the nearest cross street.
How long does a tow truck take to get to Smithville?
A truck is usually with you within about 60 minutes, and you get a real ETA for your exact spot on the phone before you agree to anything. Smithville is reached from the Liberty yard via Route 92 west, and US-169 runs along the west side of the city. Tell us which road you are on, your direction and the nearest cross street, and what you are driving.
Can you jump a dead battery in a Smithville Lake park lot?
Yes. Dispatch answers 24 hours a day at Titan Tow & Repair, and a truck from the Liberty yard is usually at the lake within about 60 minutes. Call (816) 888-8732 and tell dispatch which park you are in, such as Camp Branch Park or Crows Creek Park, what you drive and whether it clicks or does nothing. If a jump does not work, a rollback flatbed takes it.
