From Your Call to Drop-Off: How a Tow Works
Being stuck is stressful enough without guessing what happens next. Here’s how our tow truck Hornsby service works, step by step.
Step 1 – Call or WhatsApp Us
Ring 0420 502 202 any time. Tell us where you are – a street and cross street, or a landmark like Hornsby Station – plus your vehicle and what’s gone wrong.
Step 2 – Get Your Quote
Before any truck heads your way, we give you a clear quote. It’s based on your vehicle, the distance and the time of day, and any after-hours rate is confirmed upfront.
Step 3 – We Send the Right Truck
We match the equipment to the job: a tilt tray for a car that won’t start, wheel cradles for a motorbike, or roadside tools if it looks fixable where it sits.
Step 4 – Careful Loading
Your vehicle is secured with the straps and fittings that suit it – soft straps and cradles for bikes, proper tie-downs for cars and trailers – before it moves an inch.
Step 5 – A Roadside Fix if Possible
Flat battery, flat tyre, empty tank or keys locked inside? If we can get you going where you've stopped, we will – it's usually simpler and cheaper than a tow.
Step 6 – Drop-Off Where You Choose
Your mechanic, a dealer, home, storage or a marina – anywhere in Greater Sydney and the Illawarra, plus long-distance towing across NSW.
Breaking Down on Hornsby's Main Roads
Several of Sydney's major northern routes pass through or close to the area, so a call to our tow truck Hornsby team can mean anything from a quiet side street to a busy multi-lane road. Knowing exactly where you are helps us plan a safe pickup.
These are the local spots where a few extra details make the biggest difference when you call:
- Pacific Highway – runs through Hornsby, Waitara and Wahroonga. Tell us your direction of travel and the nearest cross street.
- M1 Pacific Motorway – pull into the breakdown lane as far left as you can, and note the last exit or any distance marker you passed.
- Pennant Hills Road – a busy multi-lane road. If the car still rolls, get into a side street or car park before you stop.
- Peats Ferry Road – shops, bus stops and driveways line much of it, so a nearby side street is often the safest place to wait.
- Westfield Hornsby car park – give us the level, bay number and the entrance you used, plus any height-limit signs you can see.
- Hornsby Station and Hornsby Hospital – commuter and visitor car parks are common spots for flat batteries; a Google Maps pin helps us find you.
Not sure of the street name? Drop a pin in Google Maps and send it to us on WhatsApp at 0420 502 202.
What Our Tow Truck Hornsby Team Can Help With
Six services, one phone number. Each one is available 24/7 across the local area and neighbouring suburbs.
Car Towing in Hornsby
Car won't start on level two at Westfield Hornsby, or lost power on Pennant Hills Road? Our car towing service uses tilt trays to carry your car to a mechanic, dealer or home without dragging it on its wheels. We also handle vehicle recovery for non-running cars sitting in driveways and garages around Waitara and nearby streets.
- Sedans, SUVs, utes, AWD/4WD and prestige cars
- EVs and hybrids carried on a tilt tray
- Breakdowns and cars that won't start
- Non-running cars moved from driveways, garages and car parks
- Long-distance towing across NSW
Motorbikes and Scooters
A bike that cuts out on the Pacific Highway, or won't fire up after a day parked near Hornsby Station, needs more care than a car. We load it upright on a wheel cradle and hold it with soft straps for the trip to your workshop or home.
- Motorcycle towing for road bikes, cruisers and dirt bikes
- Scooters and electric motorbikes
- Wheel cradles and soft straps for a secure load
- Drop-off at your mechanic, dealer or home
- Available nights, weekends and public holidays
Forklifts, Bobcats & Light Plant
Need a forklift shifted between sites, or a mini excavator collected from a renovation job in Hornsby Heights? We move compact equipment for tradies, builders and businesses, either as an urgent callout or a pre-booked move.
- Machinery towing for forklifts
- Bobcats and skid steers
- Mini excavators and light plant
- Urgent callouts or planned moves
Caravans, Campers & Boat Trailers
Heading onto the M1 with the caravan or boat behind you, and the tow vehicle gives up? We can collect the trailer and take it home, to storage, to a workshop or down to the marina, so the trip isn't a complete loss.
- Caravan & boat towing for caravans and camper trailers
- Boat trailers, tinnies and jet skis
- Delivery to home, storage, a workshop or the marina
- Long-distance towing across NSW on request
- Every load checked and restrained before we move – see the National Load Restraint Guide
Roadside Assistance Hornsby
Not every breakdown needs a tow truck. A flat battery in the Hornsby Hospital car park or a flat tyre on a quiet street in Normanhurst can often be sorted right where you've stopped.
- Flat battery? Our roadside assistance includes jump starts
- Flat tyre? We'll fit your spare
- Out of fuel? We'll bring enough to get you to a servo
- Keys locked in the car? We'll help you get back in
- Can't be fixed on the spot? We'll tow it to your mechanic
Clearing Out an Old or Unwanted Car
Got a car that hasn't moved from a driveway in Asquith or a garage in Hornsby Heights for months? Our unwanted car removal service collects vehicles you no longer need. Before pickup, we check the access, how the car is parked and whether the wheels turn, so we bring the right loading gear.
We can take it to a recycling yard, a workshop, storage or another destination you choose. We collect:
- Non-running vehicles
- Unregistered cars
- Old or unwanted cars
- Vehicles with flat tyres or seized wheels
Broken Down Near Hornsby? Do This First
Your safety comes before the vehicle. If you're in danger or there's a hazard on the road, call 000 first. Then work through these steps and call us on 0420 502 202.
1: Get Out of the Traffic Lane
If the car still rolls, steer into the breakdown lane, a side street or a car park. On the M1 Pacific Motorway or Pennant Hills Road, get as far left as you safely can.
2: Switch On Your Hazard Lights
Turn your hazards on as soon as you start slowing down. Only put out a warning triangle if you can do it without walking into traffic.
3: Wait Somewhere Safe
If you can get out on the side away from traffic, wait behind a barrier or well off the road. If you can't get out safely, stay in your seat with your seatbelt on.
4: Pinpoint Your Location
Share a Google Maps pin, or name something nearby – Westfield Hornsby, Hornsby Station, Hornsby Hospital or the closest cross street on Peats Ferry Road.
5: Leave Repairs for a Safe Spot
Don't change a tyre or open the bonnet beside moving traffic. Tempted to limp to a servo on a flat? Read our guide first: can you drive with a flat tyre.
6: Call 0420 502 202
Tell us the vehicle, the problem and where it needs to go. Keep your phone on and the line free so we can call you back if we need more details.
