Building And Container Transportation
Our 48ft semi-tilt trailer can comfortably accommodate a standard (40’/12.2m) shipping container.
If you’ve got a prefab building that needs to be transported to a new location, we can get it there for you in one piece.
We have experience in transporting abnormally wide loads.
If required we can organise an additional support vehicle, notify highways and complete all the other tasks necessary to move a prefab from one place to another.
We can carry loads in excess of 44,000lbs (20,185kg), which is the weight limit for a filled, 40′ shipping container.
48ft Semi-tilt Tray Service
A semi-tilt trailer is one that uses a hydraulic lift to elevate the front end of the trailer. This provides a gradual slope that makes it easier to load and unload vehicles.
Our 48′ semi-tile tray is long enough to load most vehicles safely. It also has a generous weight limit (more than 20,000kg) – if you’ve got a large agricultural vehicle or construction machinery that needs transporting, we’ve got the vehicle for the job!
Our team is fully trained in using the semi-tilt tray effectively. When it comes to a large cargo, we assess the load carefully to determine the safest, most effective way of transferring it on and off the towing vehicle.
As a result, our 48′ semi-tilt trailer provides a secure method of moving a wide range of vehicles.
Pilot Vehicle Service
Larger loads, convoys of vehicles, and other abnormal cargos will frequently require an escort during transportation.
We have skilled pilot vehicle drivers and vehicles available, often at short notice.
Our drivers have an excellent knowledge of the requirements, risks, and regulations that need consideration before, during, and after an abnormal load is being transported.
Salvaging
If you’ve had to leave your vehicle at the scene of an accident, we can pick it up and take it where it needs to go.
There’s no need to return to the vehicle or provide us with keys – acting on your instructions, we will transfer the vehicle onto one of our tow trucks and take it to your preferred destination, be that a garage, your property, or the salvage yard.
Emergency 24/7 Coverage
We provide breakdown coverage 24/7/365 across Dubbo, western and central western NSW.
Our team is based in Dubbo, so the nearer you are to the city, the quicker we will be with you. Our team carries everything necessary to transport your vehicle safely.
We will agree on a price with you before we tow – no unpleasant surprises further down the line.

Heavy towing involves the transportation of large vehicles such as trucks, buses and heavy machinery, which differ significantly from standard vehicles in terms of weight, size and requirements for secure towing. Heavy towing services utilise specialised equipment and vehicles, such as tow trucks with greater towing capacity and reinforced recovery mechanisms. This ensures that larger vehicles are transported safely and securely, minimising the risk of damage during the recovery process. Our team is highly skilled in handling these heavy vehicles, ensuring that every operation meets strict safety standards.
Yes, heavy towing can definitely be performed on highways and busy roads. Our operations team is well-versed in managing the complexities that come with busy environments. We employ traffic management strategies to ensure the safety of all road users and our recovery team. This includes using warning signs, signals and, where necessary, traffic diversions to minimise disruption and enhance safety during the recovery process. Whether it’s a breakdown or an accident, our heavy vehicle towing services can efficiently handle situations on busy thoroughfares.
Weather conditions play a significant role in how heavy towing operations are conducted. Adverse weather, such as heavy rain, fog or extreme heat, can impact the safety and timing of recovery and towing processes. Our team is trained to adapt to these conditions, employing different strategies and equipment to handle the specific challenges the weather poses. For instance, visibility equipment and extra safety measures are important in heavy rain or fog. At the same time, extreme heat might require us to prevent machinery overheating and ensure the well-being of our crew and the vehicles involved. Our priority is to conduct heavy duty towing operations safely, regardless of the weather conditions.
