Car towing without the runaround

Most car tows start with a simple problem: the car won’t go, or it needs to be somewhere it can’t drive itself. Whether that’s a flat battery that won’t take a jump, a gearbox that’s given up, or a car that’s been sold and needs delivering, the job is the same — load it safely, secure it properly and deliver it without new damage.

Every car we move goes on a tilt tray with all four wheels off the road. That protects automatic gearboxes and all-wheel-drive systems, avoids scraping low bumpers, and means the vehicle doesn’t need to roll or steer to be moved in most situations.

Been in a crash? If your vehicle is at an accident scene in the Melbourne controlled area, the tow is arranged through Victoria's official accident allocation system — not booked directly with a trade towing company. Once your vehicle has been cleared from the scene (for example to a holding yard, repairer or your home), we can help move it from there. How accident towing works in Victoria.

Questions

Car Towing FAQs

Do I need to be there when the car is picked up?

Not always. If the car is accessible and we know where the keys are, we can often collect it without you present. Let us know in the booking notes and we’ll confirm the arrangements with you first.

Can you tow a car with a flat tyre or no wheels?

Usually yes. Tell us which wheels are affected and whether spares are available — we’ll confirm the right loading approach before we arrive.

Can you take my car to any mechanic I choose?

Yes. It’s your car and your choice. Give us the workshop’s name or address and we’ll deliver it there.
