Farm town, interstate exit

Gordonsville incorporated in 1909 and takes its name from the Gordon family, early settlers. The town counted 1,363 people in 2020 and says plainly that farming and agriculture are central to its identity. Most homes are single-family houses, many with agricultural land around them, and the Caney Fork River, which the town lists among its recreation spots, is close by. Ivy Agee Park and Gordonsville High School are community anchors.

At the same time, the I-40 interchange at State Route 53, known locally as Gordonsville Highway, brings travel plazas and highway services to the south side of town. That combination means calls here could come from a family farmhouse one day and from a business serving interstate travelers the next.

The kinds of jobs we see

On the residential side, people call about deaths at home, medical emergencies, sewage or septic backups, rodent waste in barns and sheds, and hoarding situations that have grown over time. Farm properties often add outbuildings, equipment and vehicles to the scope.

Around the interchange, businesses may need help with restroom contamination, discarded needles, a blood incident involving a customer or employee, or a vehicle that needs biohazard cleaning before it can go back on the road. We work with managers to limit disruption and describe the scope in plain language. TDOT has planned improvements at exit 258, so if road work is underway we will factor it into our arrival.

How we reach you

We have no office in Smith County. Our mobile service is based in the Nashville area and come east on I-40 directly to exit 258, which makes Gordonsville one of the more straightforward trips in this part of the Upper Cumberland. State Route 53 then carries us north about five miles to Carthage, the county seat, and to South Carthage.

If a death or crime is involved, the medical examiner or law enforcement must release the property before we begin. We do not remove the person who died, handle evidence or perform plumbing or structural repairs. For more about vehicle work, see our vehicle biohazard cleanup page. Call 615-513-5112 any time.
