Serving St. Peters, O'Fallon, Wentzville, and the river roads in between.
St. Charles County Towing Done Right
Interstate 70, Highway 364, and miles of rural two-lane roads keep Lewis Towing busy helping drivers across St. Charles County.
Local Towing Beyond the River
St. Charles County has grown fast, and the roads show it. Interstate 70 carries heavy commuter and freight traffic through St. Peters, O'Fallon, and Wentzville, while Highway 364 and Highway 370 link the county to St. Louis across the Missouri River. Farther west and north, the landscape opens into farmland, river bottoms, and two-lane routes like Highway 94 and Highway 79. That mix of busy suburbs and open country means drivers face everything from rush-hour fender benders to vehicles sliding off soft shoulders after a storm. Lewis Towing is a family-owned company ready to help across the entire county. We send professional operators with equipment matched to your vehicle and situation, and we keep you informed from the first call until your car, truck, or trailer reaches its destination.
Winching, Recovery, and Towing Services
Many calls start with a recovery before any towing happens. Lewis Towing provides controlled winching to pull cars, pickups, and trucks out of ditches, muddy fields, and embankments without causing added damage. Once the vehicle is back on the pavement, our towing fleet takes over. Light-duty towing handles passenger cars, SUVs, and pickups with flatbed and wheel-lift equipment. Medium-duty towing moves box trucks, landscaping rigs, cargo vans, and service vehicles. Heavy-duty towing is available for semis, dump trucks, and equipment traveling the I-70 corridor. Roadside assistance rounds out our services with jump-starts, tire changes, lockout help, and fuel delivery, so a small problem does not become an expensive one. Our operators assess each scene carefully, explain what they plan to do, and work safely from start to finish.
Trusted Help From I-70 to Highway 94
Winching is often the first thing St. Charles County drivers need, especially along the river bottoms near Portage des Sioux and West Alton or on rural roads west of Wentzville, where heavy rain softens shoulders quickly. Our recovery equipment gets vehicles back on solid ground carefully. Along the I-70 corridor, heavy-duty towing clears disabled tractor-trailers, while medium-duty trucks help the contractors and delivery companies building up the county's newer subdivisions. Light-duty towing takes care of commuters in St. Peters and O'Fallon, and roadside assistance handles dead batteries, flat tires, and lockouts in parking lots and driveways. Being family owned means we treat every customer like a neighbor. You can expect honest answers, respectful service, and professional operators who take pride in doing the job right the first time.
What should I do if my car stalls in floodwater on a road?
If water is rising, leave the vehicle and move to higher ground immediately, since even shallow moving water can sweep a car away. Do not try to restart the engine, because water in the intake can cause serious damage. Once you are safe and the water has receded, call for a recovery and tow the vehicle to a shop for inspection.
How should I prepare my car before it is towed a long distance?
Remove valuables and important documents, take photos of the vehicle from all sides, and note the mileage. Let the operator know about any aftermarket parts, low ground clearance, or existing damage. Leave the keys with the driver if requested, and confirm the destination address and contact person so the vehicle is received properly when it arrives.
What should I do if my vehicle breaks down on a bridge?
Turn on your hazard lights and try to coast to the far edge or off the bridge if possible. Bridges often have little or no shoulder, so staying buckled inside is usually safer than walking in traffic. Call for help, give the bridge name and direction of travel, and call 911 if your vehicle is blocking a lane.
