D&J Towing handles heavy-duty towing in Wheatland, WY, plus recovery and equipment hauling for the semis, trailers and machines that work around town and on I-25. Our Wyoming work is built around Wheatland, and one dispatch line answers day and night.
Wheatland is the center of our Wyoming operation, and the work here sits at the heavy end of what we do. Long gaps between towns mean the right truck and gear have to roll on the first trip, so tell dispatch what you are running and how it sits.
Buses, box trucks, work trucks and other heavy units towed off I-25 and the roads out of town, with recovery when a unit is in the ditch, jackknifed or on its side.
Where it happensThe open stretches of I-25 north and south of town, and county roads off the business loop.
Heavy-duty towingTractors and tractor-trailers that break down or leave the road near Wheatland, loaded or empty, towed to the shop, yard or destination you name.
Where it happensI-25 between Chugwater and Dwyer Junction, including the wind-prone ground around Bordeaux.
Semi truck towingPlanned moves for tractors, loaders, excavators and other machines between farms, ranches, job sites and yards, with offloading where access is tight.
Where it happensFarm and ranch ground around town, plus job sites off WYO 34 and US 26.
Equipment haulingOur Wheatland work is heavy-duty and commercial. If you need a passenger car towed, a jump start or a tire change in Wyoming, call (303) 674-0198 and ask dispatch what we can do where you are.
WYDOT closes I-25 between Cheyenne and Wheatland to light, high-profile vehicles when the wind picks up, and winter storms have shut that stretch entirely. Pick the road status and what you are running to see how to handle the call.

Empty or light trailerThese are the units most at risk. After a December 2025 windstorm, WYDOT noted that many blown-over vehicles were underweight and some trailers were empty.
Loaded semiA full load sits heavier in the wind, but closures are posted by vehicle weight, so check whether yours is covered. Tell dispatch the load if it goes over, since it changes the recovery.
Bus or box truckTall, flat sides catch the wind. Treat it as a high-profile unit, and tell dispatch the length and whether anyone is still aboard.
Machine on a trailerTell dispatch the machine, the trailer type and whether the load shifted. A shifted machine can need recovery before anything gets towed.
The heavy traffic around Wheatland comes from three directions at once. Irrigated farm and ranch ground spreads out from town, an industrial power plant sits to the east, and I-25 carries freight between Colorado and the rest of Wyoming straight through.
That mix puts equipment moves on the roads around Wheatland all year. A tractor or loader going between fields, a machine headed to a job site, a disabled truck going to a shop: each one is planned around the weight, the access at both ends and the weather on the day.
When something goes wrong off the pavement, like a unit stuck in a soft field or down a ditch on a county road, the call becomes a recovery. Tell dispatch whether the ground is dry, muddy or snow-covered and how far the unit sits from a road a heavy truck can use.
The Wheatland Irrigation District draws on the Laramie River and serves about 850 users, so tractors, implements and farm trucks share the roads around town.
Basin Electric's coal-fired power plant sits east of Wheatland. Industrial sites like it are where heavy equipment and service trucks come and go.
The short way to Laramie climbs over Morton Pass, and winter storms can close it. Tell dispatch which road you took out of Exit 73.
In February 2023, blowing and drifting snow closed roughly 60 miles of I-25 between Cheyenne and Wheatland, and the closure later stretched north to Orin Junction.

Answers for carriers, owner-operators and equipment owners. Anything else, call dispatch and ask.
Yes. We haul heavy equipment and offload it where access is tight. Have the machine, its weight and size, both addresses and the date it needs to move ready when you call.
Dispatch can talk it through on the call once they know the unit, the load, where it sits and where it has to go. Payment is cash, Mastercard or Visa.
Give us the exit or mile marker, what you are running and how it sits, and we will plan the tow, the recovery or the haul from there. Family-owned since 1984, with one 24/7 line from the Colorado foothills to the Wyoming I-25 corridor.
