Serving Marshalltown and Marshall County for Heavy-Duty Diesel Service
Marshalltown is approximately 45 minutes east of our Ames shop on US-30. Marshall County has a strong industrial and manufacturing base that generates consistent commercial truck and heavy equipment activity. The food processing facilities, construction contractors, and manufacturing operations in Marshalltown all run diesel-powered vehicles that need specialist service.
US-30 between Ames and Marshalltown is a route we know well - it is where we see breakdown calls from truckers hauling between agricultural operations of central Iowa and the processing and distribution points farther east. Mobile response to Marshalltown is available 24/7. For in-shop service, the US-30 drive from Marshalltown to our Ames facility is direct and avoids Des Moines metro traffic.

Marshalltown's industrial operations create a specific diesel service pattern. Manufacturing and food processing facilities run second and third shift operations, which means diesel truck problems at 2am are not unusual - and cannot wait until 8am. Our 24/7 mobile response covers exactly that situation.
Fleet Maintenance for Marshalltown Operations
Marshall County fleet operators - industrial contractors, food processing logistics, commercial haulers on US-30 - benefit from our proximity relative to Des Moines. Fleet accounts receive priority scheduling and preventative maintenance programs that work around your production schedule.
When a truck in Marshalltown cannot be repaired on-site, Central Iowa Towing and Recovery handles transport to our Ames facility. You call one number. We dispatch the mobile tech and, if needed, the tow. No coordinating two separate companies from the side of the road.
