Towing and Roadside Assistance will be operating as usual
Gardenstate Towing continues to remain proactive in our efforts to keep our staff, customers and community safe during the Covid-19 pandemic. As an essential service, we are continuing to operate to ensure nobody is stuck on the roads during this time. Our top priority is keeping our community safe. We are proud that Australians have adhered to the Covid-19 guidelines and we are seeing positive results countrywide – but our team knows that we must not become complacent and we will continue to implement all the necessary safety procedures diligently.
Our Gardenstate team would like to assure all our customers that we are taking all the necessary precautions to keep ourselves and those we come into contact with safe. We are following the advice from the Australian Government, the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the Australian Centre for Disease Control (CDC) and keeping up to date with the latest facts and recommendations.
