We're Open Now - 7 days a week, 365 days a year
We have trucks working all over the metro area of Melbourne each day, no matter if you break down on the beach or anywhere else in the metro area.
Fitzroy, Southbank, St Kilda, Richmond and all city centres.
Preston, Craigieburn, and Tullamarine.
From Box Hill through to Ringwood and the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges.
Chelsea, Bonbeach, Carrum, Edithvale, and connecting roads to the Peninsula.
Werribee, Footscray and all suburbs along the Princes Freeway.
Reliable 24/7 towing solutions for cars, trade vehicles, tilt trays, and heavy equipment.
Chelsea’s train line and level crossings add a layer most towing jobs don’t have to think about – timing a recovery around boom gates and platform traffic takes local awareness, not guesswork. Summer weekends around the beach bring their own congestion too.
Whatever the cause, you’ll get the same standard from us every time: a clear price before we start, a driver who explains what’s happening, and a vehicle handled properly from start to finish.
Bayside suburbs come with their own quirks, and Chelsea is no exception.
We Time Around the Level Crossing – Boom gate closures at the station are factored into our route planning, not an afterthought.
We Know Beach-Season Traffic – Summer weekends bring extra congestion at the foreshore, and we plan for it.
We Give Honest Arrival Windows – Based on real conditions on the day, not a fixed citywide average.
Usually within 30 to 60 minutes, though this can vary around the level crossing or on busy beach days. A specific street or nearby landmark helps our driver plan the fastest route in.
Yes. We operate every hour of every day, so whether it's a late finish near the foreshore or an early start on the Nepean Highway, someone's on call to help.
We cover cars, SUVs, vans, utes and motorcycles as standard. For anything outside that range, flag it when you call so we send the right truck.
We aim to avoid that entirely by using tilt tray transport wherever possible, which keeps all four wheels off the road for the whole trip.
Mainly by distance, vehicle type and the time of day. We'll walk you through the likely cost before a truck is sent, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
Quite often, yes. Flat batteries and empty tanks are usually solvable roadside with a jump-start or fuel top-up, so your car doesn't need to leave the spot at all.
Some policies include roadside towing as part of comprehensive cover - it's worth checking with your insurer. Either way, our pricing stays fair whether you're claiming or paying directly.
Don't let a level crossing delay or a flat battery ruin your beach day. Roadside Tows delivers dependable emergency towing services day or night in Chelsea.
