Lenoir City, TN · dispatched from Knoxville · 24/7
Towing in Lenoir City, TN
Lenoir City is the Loudon County stop on I-75 before the interstate joins I-40. Exit 81 is US-321, the commercial strip, and it also points toward SR-95 and Oak Ridge. Fort Loudoun Dam holds the lake the Tennessee River becomes through Knoxville.
Getting a Truck to the Right Spot in Lenoir City
Exit 81 mixes truck traffic with local cars. If you are on the ramp, name the direction. If you made it to the stores on 321, say whether the car is in a lane or a lot.
US-11, Kingston Pike on the Knoxville side, runs through town toward Farragut. A breakdown on that road is a surface-street tow, not an interstate recovery.

Day or night
24 Hour Towing in Lenoir City

How a Lenoir City Call Is Handled
One Knoxville desk
Lenoir City uses the same phone as the rest of this dispatch. There is not a second after-hours number.
Roads, not a pin drop
US-321 at I-75 exit 81, Highway 95, Kingston Pike (US-11), and Fort Loudoun Dam.
Price before the wheels roll
Including calls that come in after the businesses along the main road have closed.
No counter to visit
We meet the vehicle. Do not look for a street address to drive to.
What We Move in Lenoir City
Cars, pickups, SUVs, motorcycles, and light commercial trucks. Say if a trailer is still attached.
Cars
Commuter cars and crossovers along US-321 at I-75 exit 81.
Trucks
Pickups and work trucks. Diesels need a pack built for them, so mention it.
SUVs
All-wheel-drive SUVs go on a flatbed rather than a wheel-lift.
Light commercial
Cargo vans and short box trucks. Give the length when you call.
Towing Jobs in Lenoir City
Emergency Towing
Knoxville does not go quiet at midnight. The overlap through West Knoxville, the I-640 loop, and Alcoa Highway still have cars on the shoulder. A dispatcher answers, and you hear a price before anyone is sent.
Learn more →Accident Towing
A crash tow has two jobs: clear the lane, and leave a record a shop or an insurer can use. The driver photographs the car before it moves.
Learn more →Flatbed Towing
When all four wheels need to be off the ground, the truck is a flatbed. That is the usual load for all-wheel drive, a missing wheel, or a car too low for a wheel-lift.
Learn more →Long-Distance Towing
Some vehicles should not be driven another exit, let alone another city. A long tow from Knoxville follows I-40, I-75, or whichever route actually reaches the address you give.
Learn more →Private Property Towing
A vehicle blocking a fire lane, or sitting in an assigned space after the property has already given notice, is a private-property tow. It happens only when the person who controls the lot authorizes that vehicle.
Learn more →Winch-Out
A winch-out is for a vehicle that is no longer on the pavement: a soft shoulder, a ditch, mud after a storm, or a car that will not roll onto a bed.

Vehicle Lockout
Keys in the car at Market Square, in a Turkey Creek row, or in a campus lot are a lockout when the car itself does not need a tow.
Learn more →Jump Start
If the engine will not crank and the vehicle is somewhere a technician can stand safely, a jump start is the job. If it starts and then dies, the conversation turns into a tow.
Learn more →Fuel Delivery
Fuel delivery is a few gallons of the fuel you name, enough to reach a station. It is not a full tank, and it is not priced like the pump.
Learn more →Flat Tire Change
A usable spare turns a flat into a roadside change. A missing spare, a shredded spare, or a bent wheel turns it into a flatbed ride to a tire shop you choose.
Learn more →Where the Roads Pinch in Lenoir City
SR-95 leaves exit 81 toward Oak Ridge and also meets I-40 at exit 364, on the Nashville side of the I-40/I-75 split. If you are on 95 between those two interstates, say which one you last passed.
The dam and the lake roads southwest of town have short shoulders. A car that slid off toward the water is a winch-out.
South of exit 81, the next I-75 exits are Sugar Limb Road and Loudon. If you are already past Lenoir City that way, give a mile marker so the truck does not stop at 321.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the price change because the car is in Lenoir City rather than downtown Knoxville?
The number you hear is for the job in front of you, including how far Lenoir City is from the truck and what the vehicle is doing. It is quoted before anyone is sent, including calls after midnight. If the scene does not match, dispatch calls before the work changes.
I am not sure of the cross street in Lenoir City. What should I look for?
Use the roads drivers actually name there: US-321 at I-75 exit 81, Highway 95, Kingston Pike (US-11), and Fort Loudoun Dam. A direction of travel helps on a ramp. A store, a bridge, or a signal helps on a surface street.
Which Lenoir City roads should I name when I call?
Start with US-321 at I-75 exit 81, Highway 95, Kingston Pike (US-11), and Fort Loudoun Dam. Add the direction you were heading if you are on a ramp.
Can the vehicle go from Lenoir City to a shop in Knoxville?
Yes, when that is the drop you want. Name the shop on the call so the distance is inside the quote. We do not pick a shop for you.
