Our Truck Towing Process
- 1
Call us with the truck details — type, size, approximate weight, cargo status, and exact location. Highway callouts require lane and direction information for fastest dispatch.
- 2
We assess the situation remotely and dispatch the appropriate heavy-duty tow truck or recovery vehicle. For complex recoveries, we may deploy multiple units.
- 3
Our heavy vehicle recovery team arrives, assesses the scene, and plans the safest recovery method. This may involve winching, lifting with a crane arm, or straight towing.
- 4
If cargo is involved, we coordinate load transfer to a replacement vehicle before moving the truck. We work with traffic authorities if the road needs partial closure.
- 5
The truck is towed or transported to the nearest truck workshop, depot, or your preferred facility. Full documentation is provided for fleet management and insurance.
Highway truck breakdowns that involve accidents are handled by our accident towing team who coordinate with traffic authorities for safe scene management. For fleet operators, our insurance towing service handles the admin with your fleet insurer directly.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size trucks can you tow?
We can tow and recover vehicles up to 20 tonnes including rigid trucks, horse units, buses, and construction vehicles. For interlinks and super-links, we deploy specialised heavy recovery equipment.
How much does truck towing cost?
Heavy vehicle towing starts from R3,500 for straightforward highway tows of smaller trucks. Complex recoveries involving rollovers, cargo handling, or off-road extraction can range from R8,000 to R15,000+. We quote upfront.
Can you recover a rolled-over truck?
Yes. We have crane-equipped recovery trucks capable of righting rolled-over vehicles. This is a specialised operation that requires safety planning and usually traffic authority coordination.
Do you handle truck breakdowns on the N1?
Yes. Highway truck breakdowns are high-priority because they cause congestion and safety risks. We prioritise N1, N4, N14, and R21 callouts with the fastest available heavy-duty truck.
Can you handle the cargo while the truck is being recovered?
Yes. We coordinate cargo transfer on-site if needed. We can arrange a replacement truck for load transfer, or if the cargo is light enough, recover the truck with its load intact.
Do you offer fleet towing contracts?
Yes. We offer retainer and per-call fleet contracts for logistics companies, courier services, and transport operators. Fleet contracts include priority dispatch and discounted rates.
For lighter commercial vehicles under 3,500 kg, our standard flatbed towing is the most cost-effective option. Contact us and we'll recommend the right equipment for your vehicle's size and weight.
