About Traralgon Towing Co. —
Your Local Gippsland Towing Experts
Locally operated and built on the belief that when you’re stranded, you deserve fast help and a straight answer — not a call centre runaround.
Who We Are
Traralgon Towing Co. is a locally operated towing and roadside assistance service covering the entire Latrobe Valley — including Morwell, Moe, Churchill, and Yallourn North — as well as the broader Gippsland corridor between Melbourne and Bairnsdale along the Princes Highway.
Our operators know this region inside out. The tight industrial laneways off Princes Drive, the flood-prone stretches near Rosedale, the sections of the Princes Freeway where you really don’t want to be stranded at night. That local knowledge translates directly into faster response times and smarter, safer vehicle recovery than operators dispatched from outside the region.
We built this service on a simple promise: always pick up the phone, always be honest about ETAs, and always treat every vehicle with care. Today we operate a modern fleet of flatbed tow trucks and roadside assistance vehicles, and that same promise still runs everything we do.
When you call Traralgon Towing Co., you’re talking to a real local operator — not a national call centre. That means real accountability, faster dispatch, and service that actually reflects our community.

What Our Customers Say
“Broke down on the Princes Freeway at 11pm heading back from Sale. They were with me in under 40 minutes — in the dark on a country highway. Professional, calm, and had me sorted quickly. Could not be more grateful.”
“Locked myself out at the Morwell shopping centre carpark. Called these guys, had someone there in 25 minutes. No damage to my car, no fuss. Very fair price too.”
“My son’s motorbike broke down near Churchill. They had a proper chock setup on the flatbed — not just strapping it to the tray. The bike arrived perfect. Will always use them.”
