A real person on the phone, any hour

Breaking down after dark feels different. Fewer people around, less light, and often a flat phone battery to worry about. When you ring 0419 857 070 at night, a real person picks up, takes your location and tells you which truck is coming.

We have 10+ tow trucks on the road across Perth, so we send the nearest one rather than whoever is free across town. You get a realistic ETA, not a guess designed to keep you on the line.

Staying safe while you wait

Your safety comes before the car. If you can, get the vehicle off the road or as far left as possible, switch on your hazard lights and leave your parking lights on.

  • If you are on a busy road or freeway, get out on the side away from traffic and wait behind a barrier if there is one.
  • If you are in a quiet street or car park and feel unsafe, lock the doors and wait inside until you see our truck.
  • Keep your phone charged. Turn down the screen brightness and close apps you are not using.
  • Do not accept help from anyone claiming to be your tow truck. Our driver will know your name and job details. Ask them before you hand over keys.

If you are injured or in danger, call 000 first. Then call us.

What to tell us when you ring

The more we know up front, the quicker we can get the right truck to you:

  • Your exact location. A street address, nearest cross street, freeway exit or a GPS pin sent by text all help.
  • Make, model and whether it is a manual, auto, AWD or EV.
  • What happened: will not start, overheated, flat tyre with no spare, accident damage.
  • Where you want the car to go, and whether anyone will be there to receive it.

If you have had an accident and are claiming on insurance, tell us your insurer. We can bill your insurer directly for covered claims, so there is usually nothing to pay on the night.

How your car is loaded

We use tilt tray trucks. The tray tilts down, your car is winched or driven on, and it rides fully on the tray. No wheels on the road, no wear on the tyres, gearbox or driveline, and no kilometres added. That matters for AWDs, automatics and EVs, which can be damaged by being dragged.

For a standard breakdown tow, loading usually takes a few minutes once the truck is in position. For accident towing, the driver also secures loose panels and checks for leaking fluids before moving off.

Pricing

Night towing is priced on the same factors as any other job: distance, the type of vehicle, whether it runs, access at both ends and the time of day or urgency. We give upfront quotes with transparent pricing and no hidden fees, backed by our best rates guarantee. Call or text 0419 857 070 for a quote before we send the truck.

Where we work

We tow at night across every Perth suburb, from Two Rocks to Secret Harbour and Cottesloe to Mundaring. That includes the northern suburbs, southern suburbs, eastern suburbs including the hills, the western suburbs, the south-eastern suburbs and the Perth CBD. See all areas we cover.

Stuck tonight? Ring 0419 857 070 and you’ll talk to someone on our night crew, not a recording.

WA authorised crash towing business #810

Accident tow costs are regulated by law

Since the Towing Services Act 2024, only businesses authorised by the WA Department of Transport can tow crashed vehicles, and the charges are capped. Quik Tow & Transport is authorised crash towing business #810. These are the most anyone can charge to tow a crashed car in Perth and Peel (from 1 July 2026):

Maximum crash towing charges for light vehicles in Perth and Peel
Crashed car or light vehicleMaximum
Crash tow (first 50 km)$523
Each extra km after 50 km$4.75
After-hours surcharge$149
Storage, per day$27
Admin fee (one-off)$95
Motorcycle storage, per day$13.50
Motorcycle admin fee (one-off)$95

What the tow charge covers: preparing, loading, transporting and unloading the crashed vehicle, clearing crash debris, and the photos, phone calls and paperwork, for the first 50 km.

What's not capped: extra recovery work where the car is hard to reach or load, such as winching it out of a ditch, is charged at a reasonable rate. We'll tell you before we start.

Authority to Tow: before we move a crashed car, you sign an Authority to Tow form that lists the towing and storage costs and where the car is going. You keep a copy.

Insured? For covered claims we bill your insurer directly, so you usually pay nothing on the day.

FAQ

Your questions

Will someone actually answer if I call at 2am?

Yes. Our line is answered by a real person 24/7, including weekends and public holidays. You will not be talking to a voicemail or a call centre script, and we can tell you straight away which truck is closest.

Do you charge more for towing at night?

Time of day and urgency are one of the factors in the price, along with distance, vehicle type and access. We give you an upfront quote on the phone before we dispatch, so you know the cost before the truck leaves.

Where can you take my car in the middle of the night?

We can take it home, to your mechanic for an after-hours key drop, to your insurer's approved repairer, or to another address you choose. If the workshop is closed, tell us and we will work out the safest drop-off option with you.

Can I ride in the tow truck?

Let us know when you call how many people are with you and we will tell you what the truck on its way can manage. If we cannot fit everyone, sort a lift or rideshare before the truck arrives so nobody is left on the roadside.
