I-675 Heavy Duty Towing in Clayton County, GA
24/7 heavy-duty towing and recovery on I-675 (The Clayton Bypass). Dispatched from Union City, GA.
I-675 exists to move trucks around the southeast side of the metro without touching the Connector. It runs roughly 11 miles from I-75 in Stockbridge up to I-285 in DeKalb, and it carries a disproportionate amount of the metro's south-side distribution freight because it connects the two warehouse belts directly.

Segment by Segment: Where I-675 Breaks Down
Every stretch of I-675 has its own failure pattern. This is what dispatch knows before the truck rolls.
South End
The I-75 merge is a high-speed interchange where loaded trucks enter at speed and immediately meet grade.
Middle
The warehouse belt. Distribution centers line the interchanges and trucks turn in and out at all hours.
North End
The merge into I-285 where traffic volume jumps and lane changes get tight.
Known Breakdown Hazards on I-675
These are the specific spots and conditions that generate the most heavy wrecker calls on this corridor.
- The I-675 / I-75 junction: high-speed merge with an immediate grade.

- Jonesboro Road and Ellenwood interchanges: heavy turning traffic from distribution centers.
- Overnight warehouse shifts: trucks entering the interstate at all hours with heavy loads.

| Tire service | Common failure on daily warehouse runs |
| Winch-out kit | Shoulder drop-offs and soft ground at warehouse entrances |
What Dispatch Needs When You Call
- Which corridor and which direction — I-675 northbound, southbound, eastbound, or westbound.
- The nearest exit or mile marker — this is the single most useful thing you can give us.
- What you are driving — tractor-trailer, box truck, bus, RV, container chassis, or equipment.
- Loaded or empty — this changes the truck we send and the recovery plan.
- What failed — tire, brakes, air, engine, or a load shift. A load shift is a different job.
- Whether anyone is hurt or a lane is blocked — that moves you to the front of the queue.
That is enough to commit the right wrecker the first time. Call (678) 933-1672, 24 hours a day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cover the I-675 / I-75 junction?
Yes, in both directions. That junction is a common breakdown spot because of the merge grade.
How fast can you reach Ellenwood or Forest Park?
Those are among our closest interchanges. Dispatch will give you a live window.
Do you tow from warehouse entrances too?
Yes. A truck that breaks down inside a distribution center lot is the same job, and often easier because there is room to work.
Can you handle a loaded trailer at night?
Yes. 24 hours. Overnight warehouse shifts mean night calls are common on I-675.
Truck down on I-675?
One call. The right wrecker for the corridor, rolling now.
