Underground Towing & Salvage is a locally owned towing and roadside assistance company providing professional towing, vehicle recovery and transport services across Canberra, Queanbeyan, and Tasmania. Since starting the business more than five years ago, we’ve built our reputation on honest communication, reliable service and treating every customer with genuine care.
Our approach is simple: treat every vehicle as if it were our own and every customer as a person, not just another booking. We keep you informed throughout the job, provide upfront pricing where possible, and look for the best outcome. If we can help get your vehicle back on the road instead of towing it, we’ll always try to do that first.
It’s this customer-first mindset, combined with efficient service and genuine Google reviews, that keeps customers coming back and recommending Underground Towing & Salvage to family, friends and colleagues.
Underground Towing & Salvage is owned and operated by Joshua Harrison, who has more than 11 years of experience in the towing and recovery industry.
Joshua founded the business with a clear goal: to provide the kind of towing service he would want to receive himself. That means honest advice, transparent pricing, clear communication and a genuine commitment to helping customers during stressful situations.
“Being stranded or involved in an accident is stressful enough. My job is to make the towing process as straightforward as possible by communicating clearly, arriving when we say we will, and treating every customer’s vehicle with the same care I’d expect for my own.”
Joshua Harrison, Founder
Joshua remains actively involved in the day-to-day operation of the business and has extensive experience with accident towing, breakdown recovery, underground car park towing, roadside assistance, interstate vehicle transport and complex recovery work.
