Karrinyup towing: the usual callouts
Karrinyup Shopping Centre draws shoppers from across the northern and western suburbs, especially since its expansion added cinemas and a dining precinct. That means a steady flow of car park calls: flat batteries after a movie, cars that won’t start in the heat and keys locked in the boot with the shopping. We know the layout and can usually find a way in for a tilt tray.
Karrinyup Road is the other hotspot. It links Marmion Avenue and West Coast Highway with the Mitchell Freeway, and it’s busy most of the day. Crashes at the lights near the shopping centre and further east are common, and we tow those as accident towing jobs with direct insurer billing.
Around the golf courses and quieter streets, most jobs are standard home breakdowns or cars heading to a mechanic.
Roads and nearby suburbs
Karrinyup Road crosses the suburb east to west, with North Beach Road forming the northern edge and Marmion Avenue the western edge near Trigg. Huntriss Road runs south along the eastern side towards Innaloo, and Newborough Street forms the southern boundary with Doubleview.
Head north and you’re in Carine, and the beach at Scarborough is just to the south-west. For anything that isn’t an emergency, like moving a car you’ve just bought, our vehicle transport service can take it anywhere in Perth.
