Common towing and roadside calls in US-75 Corridor
Most highway calls in Melissa happen right on the 75: a blowout on the shoulder, a car overheating in summer traffic, a fender-bender at the Melissa Road exit. The frontage roads and on-ramps see their share too. Texas summer heat is hard on tires and batteries, and the occasional winter ice glazes the US-75 overpasses. A local operator works the corridor and routes to your exact spot and direction of travel.

Why drivers in US-75 Corridor call
Drivers on US-75 want off a fast shoulder quickly and a straight answer on timing. A local Melissa operator knows the exits and the frontage roads and brings the right truck for a highway recovery.
The model is simple: you call, you tell a dispatcher what happened and where you are, and a local tow operator takes it from there. Help is available 24 hours a day, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Ask for an upfront price for your situation before the truck rolls.
What to do while you wait
Once help is on the way, move the car out of a travel lane and onto a shoulder or into a lot if you can, and turn on your hazard lights. On a highway like US-75, the safest place is often outside the vehicle and well away from traffic, behind a barrier if there is one. Keep your phone handy so the operator can confirm your cross street, and have your destination in mind, the shop, home, or dealership you want the car taken to.
