For trucks, buses and vehicles that need a lift
Heavy-duty towing and crane recovery
Heavy vehicles and vehicles in difficult places need more than a standard tow truck. Heavy-duty tow trucks haul loaded or unloaded trucks, buses and tempos, and cranes lift vehicles that have gone off the road, into a ditch or onto their side.
Book in about a minute, share what happened and where, and we match the equipment to the job. The fare is shown before you confirm.

When to choose heavy and crane recovery
Trucks and tempos on the highway
A truck with a failed engine, gearbox or axle can block a carriageway. A heavy-duty tow truck clears it and takes it to a workshop.
Buses and large passenger vehicles
Recovery and haulage of buses and large vehicles with the right equipment for their weight.
Vehicles in a ditch or off the road
A crane lifts a vehicle that has gone over the edge, into a drain or into soft ground.
Accident recovery of heavy vehicles
Careful recovery after a collision, clearing the road and moving the vehicle for inspection.
Factory and warehouse call-outs
Moving a failed vehicle from a loading bay, a yard or an industrial road.

Have this ready when you book
The more we know, the better the truck we send.
- The vehicle type, make, and whether it is loaded and roughly how heavily.
- What happened: breakdown, accident, ditch, overturned.
- Your exact location, with the road name or kilometre marker on a highway.
- The drop point: workshop, yard or depot.
- Anything that affects access, such as a soft shoulder, a narrow road or a height limit.
What sets the fare
You see the fare, with every charge listed, before you confirm. These are the things that move it.
Vehicle weight and size
A heavier vehicle needs heavier equipment, which changes the fare.
Type of recovery
A crane lift out of a ditch is more work than a hook-up on level ground.
Distance
The fare grows with the distance, counted both ways because the truck returns.
Tolls and access
Tolls are passed through, and a difficult access point can change the effort involved. All of it is shown before you confirm.
The full picture is on how a tow is priced.
Mistakes to avoid
- Trying to pull a heavy vehicle out of a ditch with a car or a tractor.
- Moving a loaded truck before checking what the tow vehicle can carry.
- Not sharing the exact place on a highway, so the wrong stretch is searched.
