Towing in Local Conditions
Towing services in Yamba are delivered with a focus on preparation, safe loading and clear communication. Each job begins with a quick rundown of what’s needed—vehicle type, location, access conditions and destination.
We dispatch the appropriate tilt tray truck and equipment based on that information. Vehicles that are immobile or located in narrow streets or driveways may require skates, winches or dollies to assist with loading. Our operators follow standard load restraint and safety procedures to ensure the vehicle is secured correctly for the duration of the trip.
Once the job is complete, we provide drop-off documentation and communicate any issues encountered during transport. Our process helps reduce confusion and ensures transparency at every stage. In Yamba, where flooding, salt exposure and beach access can affect vehicle condition or access, these precautions help us carry out each job consistently. We tailor each tow to the location and conditions involved.
Can motorcycles be towed like cars?
Motorcycles can be towed, but the process is different from car towing. They require special cradles, wheel chocks or secure anchor systems to prevent tipping or movement during transport. Not all towing companies offer motorcycle towing, so it's important to ask when you book. The truck setup must ensure that the bike is upright and fully secured. Towing a motorcycle improperly can lead to serious frame or wheel damage.
Do I need to sign anything before my car is towed?
Yes, most towing operators require a signed authorisation before moving your vehicle. This document confirms that you’ve requested the service and gives the provider permission to tow your car. It may also include details like pick-up and drop-off locations, vehicle condition and estimated charges. For insurance-related tows, this paperwork is often necessary for claim validation. Some companies now offer digital forms or SMS approvals for convenience.
Can a vehicle be towed with the wheels locked or brakes on?
Yes, but additional tools and care are needed. When a vehicle has locked wheels or engaged brakes, standard loading methods may not be effective. In these cases, operators may use wheel dollies, skates or winches to move the vehicle onto the tray. Towing in this condition takes more time and planning to avoid damage. It’s essential to inform the provider so they can come prepared.
