"Broke down in the middle lane of the Gateway Motorway during pouring rain. 123 Towing had a driver with flashing safety beacons to my car in 18 minutes. Driver was calm, extremely professional, and dropped me safely at my Chermside mechanic. Lifesavers!"

"Needed an lowered Porsche 911 moved from Brisbane CBD to our new house on the Gold Coast. The tilt tray had zero ramp scrape and the driver used soft wheel straps instead of chaining the control arms. Outstanding precision and care."

"Our hire excavator stalled on a building site in Redbank Plains. 123 Towing dispatched a 12-tonne tilt slider within the hour. Slid the excavator up effortlessly and kept our construction schedule on track. Will only use 123 Towing moving forward."

Frequently Asked Towing Questions

Clear, transparent answers about towing regulations, costs, insurance, and response times in Queensland.

Our average arrival time in the Greater Brisbane metropolitan area, Logan, and along the M1 / Gateway motorways is 20 to 30 minutes. When you call, our GPS dispatcher immediately identifies the nearest active unit and provides an accurate, live ETA.
Standard local metropolitan car towing starts from $99 inc GST for local drops. The total fee depends on distance, vehicle condition (whether it rolls and steers freely), access requirements (e.g., low-clearance basements), and urgency. We always quote a fixed, transparent upfront price before dispatching so there are never hidden surprise bills.

Yes. Under standard comprehensive insurance policies in Queensland (including RACQ, Suncorp, Allianz, QBE, NRMA, and Youi), reasonable accident towing and safe holding storage are fully covered. We bill your insurance company directly so you pay nothing out of pocket.
