Hagerstown Community College on Robinwood Drive

Hagerstown Community College sits on Robinwood Drive on a 319-acre campus. The college was founded in September 1946 as Hagerstown Junior College, and classes began on this campus in 1966. Students, staff, deliveries and shuttle and charter buses all use the roads around it. Tell us whether your bus has passengers on board and whether you are on campus property or on a public road.

Housing and traffic

Robinwood covers 3.81 square miles, all land, at 587 feet. It has 3,104 housing units and 2,906 households, and the median age is 38.8. A suburb that dense means residential streets, driveways and parked cars, and a heavy truck stuck in a driveway or a cul-de-sac calls for a different recovery than a truck on a highway shoulder. Moving vans, delivery trucks and RVs get stuck in places like these.

Buses, RVs and height

Bus and RV recoveries depend on three numbers: height, length and curb weight. A coach with passengers on board gets a plan for the passengers first and the vehicle second. RVs often have low-hanging parts and awnings that a standard tow can damage. Give us what you know. We bring the right wrecker and, when needed, a second unit.

Reaching the interstates

The I-70 exits that serve the south side of Hagerstown are Exit 28 (MD 632, Downsville Pike), Exit 29 (MD 65, Sharpsburg Pike) and Exit 32 (US 40, the National Pike). I-81 Exit 6 is also US 40. We confirm the nearest ramp on the call, because the right route out depends on where you are stopped.

What we need to know

• The street or cross street, and any landmark
• Whether you are on public road, a campus lot or a driveway
• Unit type, length, height and load
• Passengers on board, yes or no
• Driver, fleet, school or insurer paying

Why we ask about the lot

Community colleges, shopping lots and apartment complexes have parking structures, speed bumps and landscaping that limit what a wrecker can do. If your unit is on private property, tell us who manages it. A property manager may need to approve the tow, and we handle that conversation on the call.

Median age, median trucks

Robinwood's median age is 38.8, and its households (2,906 in 2020) mean steady daily traffic: school runs, work commutes, deliveries. A broken-down truck during rush hour on a local road backs up quickly. Tell us the time you stopped and whether the road is blocked so the dispatcher can weigh the call properly.

Winter and heat

Hagerstown's January mean is 32.9 degrees, with a record low of minus 27 degrees on January 13, 1912. In July the mean is 77.6. Heavy units struggle in both.
