Wauwatosa towing around the medical center, Mayfair Road and the Zoo Freeway

Three parts of Wauwatosa shape how a tow goes here: a hospital campus full of multi-level garages, a busy retail stretch of Mayfair Road, and the freeway exits that connect them. We completed 32 Wauwatosa jobs in the 12 months to October 2026, and 29 were tows. Dial (414) 279-5510 and a person answers, prices the job and tells you when to expect the truck.

Hospital parking

Towing out of the Milwaukee Regional Medical Center garages

Our map shows three multi-level parking garages on the campus. If your car will not start after an appointment or a shift, these names help the driver find the right building:

Parking 1
Run by Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin, roughly 130 meters from Froedtert Hospital.
Parking 6
On the east side of the campus, nearest the Medical College of Wisconsin.
Specialty Clinics Parking - Orange
Run by Froedtert & the Medical College, between Children’s Wisconsin and Froedtert Hospital.
Pavilion Parking - Pink
A surface lot, so there is no clearance bar to worry about.

In a garage, tell us the level and the clearance posted at the entrance. Then try one thing: put the car in neutral. Many newer cars with push-button shifters only go into neutral with the engine on or with a specific button sequence, and the owner’s manual shows it. A car that will not leave park, or one with all-wheel drive, goes on a flatbed. We have 3.

Zoo Freeway exits inside Wauwatosa

The Zoo Freeway (I-41, US 41, US 45) runs up the west side of the city. Each exit below is listed with the street it is mapped closest to.

ExitClosest mapped street
39, 40A-BWatertown Plank Road, the medical center end, near Discovery Parkway and Swan Boulevard
42A, 42A-B, 42BNorth Avenue and West Center Street
43Between Center Street and Burleigh Street, off Mayfair Road
44North Menomonee River Parkway
45The northern city line, toward Capitol Drive

Give the exit, then say northbound or southbound. If you stopped on a ramp rather than the main shoulder, say that too.

If you are stopped on the Zoo Freeway

  1. Hazards on, and steer as far onto the shoulder as the car will go.
  2. If there is a barrier and you can get to it on the side away from traffic, wait behind it. If not, stay belted in.
  3. Call (414) 279-5510 with the exit number and direction. Stay on the line until the dispatcher has what they need.
  4. When the truck arrives, stay put until the driver tells you where to stand.

Breakdowns on Mayfair Road and in the mall lots

North Mayfair Road is WIS 100 and a mapped truck route through Wauwatosa. Its signals at Center Street and Capitol Drive are the easiest crossings to name. Further south it meets North Avenue, Watertown Plank Road and Bluemound Road.

In a big retail lot like Mayfair Mall, The Mayfair Collection or Burleigh Square, give the store entrance closest to you and the row if it is marked. Surface lots have no clearance limit, so the main job is finding the car.

Eight low clearances in Wauwatosa

These matter for tall vehicles and for anything riding high on a flatbed deck. Most of them sit near Mayfair Road or on Swan Boulevard.

A crash inside Wauwatosa brings the Wauwatosa Police Department. Get the report number from the officer, then call (414) 279-5510 for the accident tow.

Off the main roads, a neighborhood name narrows things down. Our map has 35, among them Tosa Village, Tosa East Towne, Washington Highlands, Mayfair Park, Pasadena, Wellauer Heights and the Church Street Historic District.

Milwaukee lies to the east, West Allis to the south and Brookfield to the west. Elm Grove and Menomonee Falls have their own pages.
