Towing in
Lexington
Lexington has its own local line — (859) 489-1275 — answered by the same dispatch desk.
Lexington calls usually come in off I-75 and I-64, the bypass loop, or the back roads out to the horse farms. Tell us the cross street or mile marker and we'll tell you which truck to ask for.
