Had a great experience with these guys. Towed 2 cars for me in the same afternoon for an incredibly reasonable price. 1 car was a bare-shell, the other was a non-starter, and it was almost impossible to find someone who would take the job. Very professional and friendly tow truck driver, who went the extra mile to get the job done quickly and safely. Much appreciated, cheers!

On one of the hottest afternoons of January 2026 (40+°C) Josh rescued me and my vehicle from Kurringa Drive in Spence. It was a Saturday 5pm. Josh was quick to arrive, professional and communicated perfectly with me. My vehicle was transferred to my requested drop off point without fuss. Unfortunately I cannot comment on cost as the tow was booked through Budget Roadside Assist. I will certainly use this provider again if I am in need of this type of service. Thanks Josh!

Absolutely brilliant service. They were so careful with my car and I've never had such an amazing towing experience ever; especially since my car is so low.

Friendly obliging owner and professional service. Having hit a kangaroo at night we decided to leave our car and get a lift; there was no issue with having our car retrieved the next day and we did not need to go along. Price quite reasonable.

I was bogged on federal highway in the pouring rain, thinking the worst. That was until the kind gentleman at UNDERGROUND TOWING AND SALVAGE came to my rescue.
He was polite , helpful, humorous and quick to get working , he had me out in 5 mins or less. A real help in a time of need.

Make sure to hit them up whenever your stuck 🫡💯

Highly recommend. My car was stuck on the third level of the car park in my apartment building. The car park is narrow, low clearance, with steep ramps. I thought it might be impossible to get a tow out of there. But they were there within 30mins of making a phone call. I’m still not sure how they managed to navigate the tricky car park. A really professional service. Incredible value, especially as it was an emergency after hours job.

For most accident towing jobs, we typically arrive within 30 to 45 minutes, depending on your location, traffic conditions and current demand. When you call, we'll provide an estimated arrival time based on where you are and keep you updated if anything changes.

Yes. Accidents don't only happen during business hours, which is why Underground Towing & Salvage provides 24/7 emergency accident towing across Tasmania, including nights, weekends and public holidays.

No matter when you need assistance, you'll speak directly with an experienced member of our team, not a call centre. If you've been involved in an accident, give us a call, and we'll organise the most appropriate tow truck for your recovery as quickly as possible.

To help us dispatch the right tow truck as quickly as possible, we'll usually ask for:

  • Your exact location
  • Your vehicle make and model
  • The condition of the vehicle after the accident
  • Where you'd like the vehicle to be taken
  • Whether emergency services are at the scene

If you're unsure about any of these details, don't worry.

Our experienced team will guide you through the call and ask the right questions to arrange your recovery quickly and efficiently.

If you're unsure where your vehicle should be taken, let us know when you call. We'll explain your options, work with your insurer where required, and help you make the most suitable decision for your circumstances.

It depends on your insurance policy. Many comprehensive car insurance policies include accident towing, but the level of cover and claim process can vary between insurers.

If you're unsure whether your policy covers towing, we recommend contacting your insurer for confirmation. Our team can also explain the towing process and answer any questions you may have before your vehicle is transported.

Every accident towing job is different, so the cost depends on factors such as the vehicle type, recovery requirements, pickup location and destination.

For an accurate quote, call us, and we'll discuss your recovery requirements before dispatch. We provide honest, upfront pricing wherever possible, so you know what to expect before we get to work.

Accident towing often involves more than simply transporting a vehicle from one location to another. Damaged vehicles may require specialised recovery techniques, careful loading procedures and coordination with repairers, insurers or emergency services to ensure they're recovered safely.

With 11 years of towing industry experience, Joshua Harrison and the team understand how to recover accident-damaged vehicles while helping minimise the risk of further damage. Every recovery is planned based on the condition of the vehicle and the circumstances at the scene, ensuring your vehicle receives the care and attention it requires.
