The work of a towing company is not limited to the everyday car. In fact, tow truck services work with a wide variety of vehicles that have broken down, bogged or require extra special care when transporting. In this week’s blog, we discuss the tow truck service industry and the varying situations that they can be required.
Machinery tow truck service
When transporting machinery, a modern data dispatch and GPS technologies are used so that the vehicles are tracked from pick up to delivery. This also allows delivery on-request reporting, real-time reports on the status of the tow, where it is and its estimated time of arrival.
Machinery and industrial equipment are transported from government agencies, individual clients, organisations and companies across a range of industries.
Machinery & Equipment Type include:
- Forklifts
- Tractors
- Scissor Lifts
- Portable Toilets
- Cherry Pickers
- Site Sheds
- Bobcats
- Containers
- Sweepers
- Generators
- Booms
- Portable lights
- Cranes
- Trucks
- Transport vehicles
Enclosed vehicle tow
This service is designed for prestigious car shows, displays and other high-end events, where cars need to be protected from dust and dirt. However, the enclosed vehicle tow is also popular with those who want to ensure their car is in good hands, especially if it is travelling interstate.
Enclosed vehicle tow is only operated by skilled, experienced staff, who will load and unload the car with due care. This service will ensure:
- All vehicles are tracked by GPS for minute-by-minute status updates
- Storage facilities are CCTV monitored
- All staff are fully trained and undergo a police check
Specialised tow
Specialised towing ensures that vehicles are safely and appropriately towed. These services include:
- Corporate promotions
- Prestige, vintage and classic cars
- Concourse Show Cars
- Race cars
- Prototypes
- Motorcycles
- Boats
- Trailers
- Caravans
- Floats
These vehicles are towed with state-of-the-art equipment including tilt-slide tray and wheel-lift tow trucks. The fleet also includes an enclosed Car Transporter, ideal for premium and VIP vehicles that require extra protection.
Salvage tow
From bogged vehicles deep in the forest, in rivers and embankments, in off-road crashes, in canals or abandoned, the salvage tow will ensure that your vehicle is taken to a salvage yard near you.
However, if you require a tow, make sure you are in a safe position before attempting to call for a salvage tow.
Low distance tow
A long-distance towing service provides customers with peace of mind when it comes to their vehicle. The towing service is fast, safe and reliable with all tow trucks fitted with GPS trackers which means you’ll receive real time updates.
Low-distance tow trucks can be open or covered towing vehicles so you can make the decision based on what’s best for your vehicle.
