Cross Auto Body & Towing

Cross Auto Body & Towing 24/7 towing and full service auto repair facility. Over 40 years in business and still going strong. Since then, we have grown even more!

Gary and Terry Cross started our auto body collision repair business in a garage at their parents house. Later, their brother Craig Cross joined the business and he brought the idea of adding towing to the services that we offer. Due to the quality of our work, and word of mouth, the business soon outgrew the garage and we moved just down the road from our original location to a bigger shop. We no

w have 12 full time employees and 7 tow trucks. However, we still offer the same family oriented service that you have come to know and expect. In 2016 we celebrated our 40th year in business.

Heads up everyone!! Updated downtown road conditions/closures.

NORTH MAIN STREET UPDATES: We have some downtown construction updates and important traffic changes to make you aware of:
✅ VANDALIA STREET, which has been closed to the east and west of Main Street since Monday for water main work, is set to REOPEN by late afternoon/early evening TODAY (Friday, March 27), providing full access at the Vandalia/Main intersection.
🚫 NO LEFT TURN FROM (southbound) MAIN ONTO EAST VANDALIA: Drivers traveling southbound on North Main Street will no longer have the option of making a left turn onto East Vandalia at the Main/Vandalia intersection. The Illinois Department of Transportation asked the City to make this change until further notice during this construction out of an abundance of caution for drivers at the intersection (it’s a state highway). Digital signage will be updated to note the change, left-turn road signs will be removed, and the left turn traffic signal at the intersection will be covered to avoid any confusion. This change takes effect with the reopening of Vandalia (today -- Friday, March 27).
🚧 DEDICATED RIGHT-TURN LANE TEMPORARILY CLOSED: The dedicated right-turn lane from West Vandalia onto (southbound) South Main Street will be blocked (likely through next Thursday, April 2). Right turns will be permitted from the through traffic lane.
🚧 HILLSBORO AVENUE CLOSURE AT NORTH MAIN: Hillsboro Avenue access to and from North Main Street will again be blocked for sanitary sewer work that is scheduled to begin Monday, March 30. This work is expected to last for seven to 10 business days (expected wrap-up is approximately April 8-10). Local access for MCT buses will be maintained. Drivers who typically access the downtown public lot near City Hall, 118 Hillsboro, and adjacent businesses from Hillsboro are advised to use Plaza Court (off East Vandalia) or North Kansas to access the lots.
Thank you for your patience while this important infrastructure project is underway. You can find the latest details, including a projected timeline, for this downtown project, for the Goshen Commons project and other City projects at: www.cityofedwardsville.com/cityprojects

Welcome new truck 3 to the fleet. Chris finally got to take out his new truck today and I think he is quite happy. When a good deal presents itself, you take it. So we are now proud owners of a new 2024 Ram 5500 with a Century 2465 wrecker bed. Another throwback design was done, rebirthing a stripe design used on a wrecker Terry Cross drove back in the 90’s. Once again thanks goes out to Purpose Wrecker Sales for the excellent deal made for the truck, and ADgraphix - St. Louis for the quick turn around on the graphics.
