Our Interstate Towing Process Explained

With a substantial fleet of over 400 vehicles, we are equipped to meet the demands of interstate towing. Our diverse fleet allows us to match the right truck to your specific needs, ensuring efficiency and reliability.

Step 1
Ensure You Are Safe

The first priority in any emergency situation is your safety. If you experience a breakdown or accident, move your vehicle to a safe location away from traffic, if possible. Turn on your hazard lights and stay inside your vehicle until help arrives.

Step 2
Call Us for a Tow

Once you are safe, contact our 24/7 dispatch team. Provide us with essential details such as your location, the type of vehicle, and any specific needs you might have. Our team will quickly dispatch a tow truck to your location.

Step 3
Prepare Your Vehicle for Towing

If time allows, remove any personal belongings from your vehicle and secure any loose items. Ensure that the vehicle is in a position that allows for easy loading onto the tow truck.

Step 4
Stay Safe Until Help Arrives

Stay in a safe area while waiting for the tow truck. If you’re on a busy road, it’s best to remain inside your vehicle with the doors locked. Our professional interstate tow truck drivers will handle the rest.

Common Scenarios Where Emergency Interstate Towing Is Needed

Understanding when interstate towing is essential can help you recognise when to call for assistance. Here are some common scenarios:

  • Breakdowns and mechanical failures can happen unexpectedly. If your vehicle breaks down far from home, especially on an interstate, immediate towing is crucial to prevent further damage and get you back on the road as soon as possible.
  • After a collision, your vehicle may not be drivable. Interstate towing is often required to transport your damaged vehicle to a repair shop or another destination.
  • Whether you’re moving across states or need your vehicle transported to a different location, our interstate towing service can handle the logistics. We ensure that your vehicle reaches its new destination in the same condition it left.
  • If you’re transporting a vehicle for a special event, such as a car show or auction, our specialised towing services ensure it arrives on time and in perfect condition.

Cost of Interstate Towing Services

Understanding the cost of interstate towing helps in planning and budgeting.

The cost of interstate towing depends on several factors including the distance of the tow, the type of vehicle, and any special requirements. Long distances and larger vehicles typically incur higher costs.

We offer transparent pricing and will provide a detailed quote based on your specific needs. Contact us directly for a customised quote, and get your vehicle back on the road as soon as possible.

Harmit was absolutely incredible. My tyre completely popped and I was just expecting to get towed however Harmit took the time to willingly change the tyre no matter how long it took. Then my car battery died and RACV were on the way, I was in the middle of a busy highway in the middle of the night, in pitch black, Harmit stayed with me until RACV arrived ensuring I was safe. Harmit, you were amazing and I thank you for your dedication, hard work and time to stay with me. ☺️

Awesome experience getting car towed home through RACV. Broke down at 3am in the cbd and truck arrived in a half hour. Driver Joth was super friendly and had no out of pocket cost. Sounds like a great company to work for also.

My motorcycle battery decided to cease working a long way from home and I am a Total Care member with RACV. I rang for assistance and a tow truck was allocated from Nationwide Towing. My saviour, Tony Eid (Fleet # 3359) arrived 30 minutes later and he proceeded to put my mind at ease with his knowledge and professionalism with securing and transporting my motorcycle. He treated my bike as if it was his own and he was very respectful of me being a female motorcyclist. I could not have asked for a better experience given the circumstances. My bike arrived home from its long journey without having moved an inch from its resting spot on the back of the truck, even through some of the dodgiest, bumpy highways and roads on the way home. I can't thank Tony enough for saving me and my bike.
