Towing in Menomonee Falls: I-41 exits 48 to 52, Main Street and Appleton Avenue

Almost every Menomonee Falls call we finish is a tow: 20 of the 21 completed jobs in the 12 months to October 2026, with a single jump-start making up the rest. Nine of those tows went into Milwaukee and five never left the Falls. The freeway clips the northeast corner, where six exits are mapped in about three miles. (414) 279-5510 gets you a dispatcher, a price for the run and an arrival estimate.

Off the freeway

Main Street, Appleton Avenue and Pilgrim Road, by their route numbers

Three roads meet near the middle of the Falls, and each has a number on its signs as well as a name:

Main Street
Signed WIS 100 toward the freeway and mapped as a designated truck route. Signals at Fond du Lac Avenue, Pilgrim Road, Shady Lane and Appleton Avenue.
Appleton Avenue
WIS 175, running northwest through the Falls. Signals at Good Hope Road, Lilly Road, Menomonee Avenue, Main Street, Shady Lane and River Crest Drive.
Pilgrim Road
County YY, north to south. Signals at Main Street, Good Hope Road and Lisbon Road; the police department is mapped just off Pilgrim Road near Appleton Avenue.
Silver Spring Drive
County VV, across the south side. Signals at Lilly Road, Marcy Road, Lannon Road and Town Line Road.
Village Centre
The one named district on our map downtown, at Appleton Avenue & Main Street.

Up by Exit 52, the stores are the easier landmark: Target, Kohl’s, JCPenney and Metro Market are mapped west of the interchange, with Costco southeast of them, toward Pilgrim Road.

Low entrances at Froedtert Menomonee Falls Hospital

Three low-clearance points are mapped in Menomonee Falls, and two of them are mapped at Froedtert Menomonee Falls Hospital: one at 10 ft 6 in and one at 13 ft 11 in. The third, 13 ft 6 in, is north of Main Street between Pilgrim Road and Shady Lane.

Ten and a half feet is tight for a tall vehicle riding on a flatbed deck. If the car is under a covered hospital entrance or inside a structure, tell the dispatcher before the truck is chosen, and say whether the car can roll out in neutral. We run 3 flatbeds and 2 wreckers, and that answer decides which one comes.

Electric and all-wheel-drive cars ride flat

A Rivian Service Center is on our Menomonee Falls map, on the southeast side between Silver Spring Drive and Mill Road, east of Lilly Road. An electric vehicle, or any all-wheel-drive car, should travel with all four wheels off the ground. Ask for a flatbed by name when you call and give the model, because weight matters as much as drivetrain.

Other shops mapped here: Firestone on Appleton Avenue near Pilgrim Road, Wittlin’s by Appleton Avenue and Shady Lane, and Midas up near County Line Road.

Menomonee Falls jobs and where the tows ended

Completed jobs in the 12 months to October 2026, by ticket reason:

  • Tows 20
  • Jump-starts 1

21 completed jobs

Of the 20 tows, nine were dropped in Milwaukee, five stayed in Menomonee Falls, one each went to Brown Deer and West Allis, two were long runs to Hartford and Oshkosh, and two have no drop-off on the ticket. The rate is the same for all of them, $85 plus $4 per loaded mile: $105 for a 5-mile tow across the Falls, $130 for 10 miles and $300 for 50. Longer trips are covered on the long-distance towing page.

Nine named neighborhoods and the road nearest each

Most of the subdivision names on our map are on the south side. Give the name and the main road beside it:

NeighborhoodNearest main road
Village CentreAppleton Avenue & Main Street, downtown
Elm Lane, Ravenwoods, Creekwood CrossingSouth of Silver Spring Drive, just west of Pilgrim Road
Creekwood Highlands, Quail HavenSouth of Silver Spring Drive, east of Marcy Road
Marcy, Cranes CrossingLisbon Road (County K), around Marcy Road
Silver Spring EstatesNorth of Silver Spring Drive, by Town Line Road on the far west side

Twelve posted weight limits are mapped in the Falls. Fond du Lac Avenue and Water Street are posted at 6 tons; Mill Street, Shady Lane, Tamarack Trail, Grand Avenue and Roosevelt Drive at 3 tons. A loaded tow truck avoids those, which can change the side of the street the driver comes from. For a truck or van heavier than a pickup, see heavy-duty towing.

Menomonee Falls questions

I broke down between Exit 50 and Exit 51. Which do I give?

Give the last exit sign you passed and your direction. The 50 and 51 ramps are mapped less than a mile apart, at Main Street and Pilgrim Road, so “northbound, just past 50B” is clearer than either number alone.

Who handles a crash report in Menomonee Falls?

The Menomonee Falls Police Department, mapped off Pilgrim Road just north of Appleton Avenue. Call 911 if anyone is hurt; Froedtert Menomonee Falls Hospital is the hospital on our map. After the officer gives you a report number, call (414) 279-5510. The accident towing page walks through it.

My car was towed in the Falls. Is it in Milwaukee?

If we towed it, yes: our storage lot is at 206 W Layton Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53207. If police ordered the tow, the police department can tell you which company has it. The City of Milwaukee’s own tow lot only holds cars towed on a Milwaukee order; see the Milwaukee tow lot guide.

Next to Menomonee Falls

Butler and Brookfield are south of the Falls and Milwaukee begins east of 124th Street, with Brown Deer farther east along Brown Deer Road. Wauwatosa is southeast. For the rest of our map, open the service areas page; for a plain breakdown, start at towing.

Exit or cross street, then the drop-off

Most of our Falls tows end in another city, so the destination is part of the quote. Give both ends and the vehicle, and the dispatcher handles the rest.
