Careful Recovery & Support
We approach every Evans Head tow with a focus on safety, access and clear communication. Our tilt tray trucks are set up to manage vehicles with damage, mechanical issues or limited mobility. If a car is stuck, locked or located in a tight spot, we’ll use tools like wheel dollies or winches to load it without causing further damage.
Before moving any vehicle, we do a full site check and confirm the transport plan. You’ll receive written confirmation of the tow, and we’re happy to provide drop-off details for insurers or repairers. We understand that Evans Head includes both residential areas and open roadways, so we plan each job around access, timing and local conditions. If you’re not at the scene, we can still carry out the job with the right instructions.
Our records are always clear, and we take care to keep everything traceable from start to finish. It's all about delivering the service the right way, every time.
Does towing void my car warranty or safety certificate?
Towing your vehicle typically does not void the manufacturer’s warranty or any existing safety certificate. However, improper towing methods—such as dragging an all-wheel-drive vehicle without a flatbed—can cause drivetrain damage, which might not be covered. Most warranties include clauses about misuse or negligence, so if damage occurs due to incorrect transport, the cost may not be reimbursed. It's important to follow the manufacturer’s recommended towing guidelines and ensure the operator uses the correct technique. Always document the tow for your records, especially if the car is under warranty.
Do I have to use the first tow truck that arrives at an accident?
No, you are not obligated to use the first tow truck that arrives at the scene. In New South Wales, tow operators must provide a written authorisation form and cannot remove a vehicle without your consent. You have the right to ask for identification, confirm licensing, and review fees before agreeing. If you're unsure or feel pressured, you can decline the service and request another provider. Take your time to make an informed decision, especially in high-stress situations.
What documents do I need to submit for towing claims?
To support a towing claim, you’ll generally need a detailed invoice that includes your name, vehicle registration, pickup and drop-off addresses, and the total cost. Some insurers may also request proof of why the tow was required—such as an accident report, breakdown diagnosis or repair booking. Photos or a job summary can also help verify the circumstances. Check your insurer’s claims process to see if additional paperwork like a signed authorisation form is needed. Submitting complete documents up front can speed up claim approval.
