Liberty is Clay County, 27.3 miles from the shop at 426 Miami Street. It is across the north side of the metro rather than up the Kansas side, which makes it the odd one out on this list in more ways than the drive.
Liberty does not share its hail with Clay County. The record below shows that clearly, and it changes the practical advice: when Liberty gets hit, the Kansas side shops are usually empty, and when Clay County gets hit, Liberty was often dry.
Which is good news for a Liberty driver. You are rarely queueing behind a county full of other people, so the twenty seven miles buys immediate bench time rather than a place in a line.
The NOAA Storm Events Database logs 25 confirmed hail reports inside twelve miles of Liberty between 2024 and 2026. That is the smallest record of the six towns on this wave, and the interesting part is when they happened.
Liberty did not take the March 2024 outbreak that worked over the Kansas side. Its day was 19 May 2025.
That afternoon produced four of its six largest reports inside an hour. Two and a half inches at Kearney at 2:30, 9.5 miles out. One and three quarter inches at Kearney in the same minute, 10.4 miles. Then a one and a half inch report from Gashland at 2:03, 8.8 miles, and one from Liberty Mitchell Airport at 2:17 which is only 4.1 miles from the middle of town. By 3:03 there was a two inch report back at Kearney.
The other one worth noting is 8 May 2024 at 6:24 in the morning, a one and a half inch stone at Linden, 7.9 miles out. Same early-morning system that hit the Kansas side two hours earlier.
So Liberty is the town on this list that gets its own weather. Twenty five reports in three years, a maximum stone of two and a half inches, and one afternoon in May 2025 that accounts for most of it. One and a half to two and a half inch hail does not write a car off, and it does cover a roof in dents that are easy to undercount.
Which is why a walkaround estimate is a bad idea here. The dents that get missed are the ones that drop off the claim.
Liberty is Clay County, Missouri: salvage at repairs over eighty percent of the vehicle's value, against Kansas's seventy five on the other side of the metro.
Liberty's record is the lightest of the six towns here, and that changes the useful advice. One and a half to two and a half inch hail almost never totals a car. What it does is leave a high count of shallow dents across a roof and a hood, which is the damage most likely to be undercounted by an estimate written outdoors. On a lighter record the question is rarely whether the car is a write-off. It is whether the estimate found everything, because what gets missed does not get paid for.
There is no appointment fee, no inspection charge, and no obligation attached to any of it.
No appointment needed. Call ahead if you would rather pick a time.
The Argus scanner captures every panel in one pass, with 100% accurate, insurance-grade documentation.
Built from the scan, the same visit. If you want to file, we handle the carrier from there.
$0 out of pocket on most claims. We file it, deal with the adjuster, and bill your carrier direct. Most carriers waive the deductible on paintless repair, because a paintless file runs light on supplements and finishes cheaper than replace and respray. If your carrier does not waive it, you get the exact number before any work starts, not after.
Insurance billed direct. We handle the claim and the adjuster. $0 out of pocket on most claims.
Lifetime warranty, in writing. Every repaired panel, transferable to the next owner.
Free loaner. No daily rate, no mileage cap. Swap keys and drive home.
2 to 7 days on most repairs. Exact timeline at the scan, before we take your keys.
Hail is the only thing we fix, and we fix it without paint. No filler, no respray, no replaced panels. A technician works each dent back to shape from behind the panel, reading the surface through a light board, and the factory finish stays exactly where the factory put it. That is why paintless repair does not show up in vehicle history reporting and does not follow the car to trade-in as a paint-depth reading on a resprayed panel would.
Where it stops: cracked or chipped paint, torn or stretched metal, panels with old filler underneath, and areas with no access behind them. If the scan shows one of those, we say so at the estimate rather than after the car is apart.
Liberty cars come to Miami Street. So do Basehor and Tonganoxie cars, and Leavenworth's own. The scanner and the light boards do not travel, so every customer vehicle is read in the same building, on the same equipment, by the same crew.
We run a second address and it is worth being plain about what it is. North Kansas City, MO is a dealership repair site where our crew works dealer inventory on the lot. It is dealer work only. If the car is yours, this page is your shop.
The Leavenworth page covers the building itself in more detail, and the about page covers the barn and the machine. If you would rather start with a number than a drive, the free estimate takes about two minutes, or go back to the home page for the short version.

Yes. The NOAA Storm Events Database lists 25 confirmed hail reports within twelve miles of Liberty between 2024 and 2026. The closest was a one inch stone at Wadsworth Station on 18 October 2025 at 1:30 in the morning, 1.7 miles from town. The largest in range was three inches at Pomeroy on 10 March 2026, 10.4 miles southeast.
No. Drive in during shop hours and pull through the Argus scanner. Liberty is one of the larger towns we take cars from on the shop, which makes it the easiest one to simply come from. Call ahead if you would rather pick a time.
$0 out of pocket on most claims. Hail is a comprehensive claim, we bill your carrier direct, and most carriers waive the deductible on paintless repair. We confirm your specific coverage before any work starts and tell you the exact number up front if a deductible does apply.
No. Hail is filed under comprehensive, not collision, so the claim is not an at-fault loss and does not raise your rates.
Most repairs finish in 2 to 7 days from an approved estimate. You get the exact timeline at the scan rather than after we have your keys, and a free loaner covers the gap.
No. Paintless dent repair never touches your factory paint and is not reported to vehicle history services, so your record and your resale value stay intact.
Every dent on record, your claim built on hard data, insurance handled. You drive out with your estimate the same visit.
