Two I-10 Exits, Two Rivers and an Industrial Corridor
Heavy Duty Towing in Moss Point covers a city of 12,147 people (2020 census) that sits between two rivers and straddles the Gulf Coast's main east-west interstate. I-10 runs through its northern part, US 90 forms its southeastern edge and MS 63 and MS 613 cross it north to south. Heavy trucks mix with plant-service rigs, dump trucks and through traffic bound for Mobile. Dispatch answers 24/7 at (251) 355-4026.
Exit 68, Exit 69 and the causeways
Mississippi's I-10 list gives Exit 68 as MS 613 toward Moss Point and Pascagoula, and Exit 69 as MS 63 toward East Moss Point and East Pascagoula. Near the city, I-10 crosses the Escatawpa River and its wetlands on a shorter causeway, and the West Pascagoula River and then the main channel of the Pascagoula River on a long causeway. Causeways have low or no shoulders and no room to turn a long wrecker around. When you call from one, name the direction and mile marker so we know which way to come in.
The US 90 and MS 63 industrial corridor
The city's own industrial corridor page describes a belt of industrial firms along US 90 and Highway 63 near the Escatawpa River, with a rail line among its logistics assets. Tenants named there include MRC Global (pipe, valves and fittings), Dixie Rubber & Belting (conveyor belting and hose), HPC Industrial (plant cleaning and services) and Analytic Stress Relieving (heat treating). It also says Ingalls Shipbuilding bought property in Moss Point in 2014. These are mostly supply and service businesses, so the trucks are flatbeds, box trucks, service rigs and vacuum or cleaning trucks. Tell dispatch the street or gate if you are inside the corridor.
North on MS 63
MS 63 crosses the Escatawpa River and reaches I-10 near the Trent Lott International Airport, then goes on through Escatawpa, where it meets MS 613 and passes Plant Daniel, and on north through Wade and into George County. Fairly open, rural, four-lane divided road changes the kind of tow. A loaded semi on the shoulder of a divided highway needs a safe approach and good lighting, but the work is straighter than one in a plant lane.
Flat, low ground
Moss Point sits at 16 feet, on the east side of the Pascagoula River, with the Escatawpa River flowing east-west through the city. Rain and storm surge move water here fast, and heavy rain leaves ditches full along both US 90 and the river roads. A truck in a ditch beside river wetlands is a winch-out first and a tow second. Tell us how far off the pavement it is.
