Frequently Asked Questions
Can my 4WD be towed if it breaks down off-road?
Yes, most 4WDs can be recovered by tow services that offer off-road assistance. These companies use vehicles with winches, recovery boards and heavy-duty equipment suitable for rugged terrain. Inform the towing company of your exact location and conditions — sandy tracks, rocky trails or mud all require different strategies. Avoid trying to self-recover unless you have experience and gear. Professional off-road towing ensures your vehicle is retrieved safely without causing further damage or risk.
Do I need to be with my car during a scheduled tow?
While it’s ideal to be present, you don’t always need to be with your car for a scheduled tow. Some companies allow you to leave the keys in a secure location and give access instructions. However, being there allows you to communicate directly with the driver, inspect the process and ask questions. It also lets you retrieve personal items and sign paperwork on the spot. If you can’t be present, confirm all details beforehand.
How do I find my car after it’s been towed?
If your car has been towed, contact your local council, police non-emergency line or nearby impound yards to find out where it was taken. Have your vehicle registration number ready. In many cases, you’ll be required to pay a release fee and provide ID and proof of ownership. If your car was towed from private property, signs at the location may include the towing company’s contact information. The sooner you act, the lower the storage cost.
