For a farm road or highway call

Tell the dispatcher at (731) 202-9868:

  • The road, direction and the nearest crossroads or field entrance
  • Truck, trailer or machine, with weight class
  • Whether it is loaded and with what, including ag chemicals or fuel
  • What happened, and whether it is blocking the road
  • Who pays: you, the farm, a fleet or an insurer

We give an honest arrival estimate after we know where you are.

Bypass versus business route

The US 64 route description says US 64 follows a new bypass south of Whiteville while US 64 Business goes through downtown. The bypass is for through trucks. The business route is for people going to local stores and downtown. A tractor-trailer that takes the wrong one and gets stuck at a downtown corner is a common call in towns like this, and we handle those with care for curbs and overhead lines.

SR 100 and SR 179

SR 100 begins at US 64 in Whiteville at its western end and runs east toward Henderson, about 30 miles by the town's Wikipedia page. SR 179 ends at US 64 in Whiteville after 43.4 miles from SR 54 near Covington, all of it two-lane road, with an I-40 interchange at exit 47 near Dancyville. For a truck coming off the interstate, that is a long two-lane run past fields and creeks. Two-lane means one wrecker, one lane and a careful setup.

Soft ground

Whiteville sits at 490 feet near the headwaters of Hickory Creek, which flows north to the Hatchie River. Farm ground is soft after rain, and a heavy truck that drops a wheel off the road can need a pull from a wrecker with a long winch line. Loaded grain, cotton and fuel trucks each add a different risk, so tell us what is on board.

Prison traffic

Two privately owned prisons, Whiteville Correctional Facility and Hardeman County Correctional Center, are in Whiteville, and a Tennessee College of Applied Technology location is also there. If you are stopped near one of those sites, tell us the road and the nearest gate or entrance when you call.

Storage and typical rates

Published rate sheets show storage at about $65 to $100 a day for heavy units, such as the Louisville and Idaho sheets. Rates vary by unit, distance, scene and time of day. Your written invoice estimate is the price.

Two-lane scene setup

On a two-lane farm road there is rarely a place to park a heavy wrecker out of traffic. The operator may hold traffic with a flagger, set cones and lights well back, and work the winch line from the pavement so the unit comes out straight. If a trailer is across both lanes, we close the road in one direction until it is clear. Recovery by the hour on a heavy wrecker runs about $350 to $850 per hour, per the Louisville, Idaho and Flagler County rate sheets.
