Heavy Transport Towing

If you're looking for heavy machinery towing in Darwin, you're not alone. A lot of the loads transported around the Northern Territory are very heavy indeed.


As a region dependent on its rich resources, there is a lot of movement of freight from producers to consumers. In fact, the road network carries the vast majority of this within, into and out of the Territory. For this reason, transporting road freight is vital to many people's livelihoods. As providers of transport and towing in Darwin and the surrounding area relies on, we deliver the goods.

Heavy machinery is not designed to travel via road, but to be used in other settings. Diggers, dumper trucks and farm equipment are only fit for the purpose they were made for. Some of these can be extremely heavy and awkward to move around.


Cranes and other heavy equipment can also be extremely difficult to transport. These would not be safe to travel via any road network, for many reasons. In high winds, heavy rain or both, such equipment can be unstable and dangerous. These works require specialist expertise and equipment to transport on public highways.


The latest transportation equipment can handle loads of up to 50 tonnes. Without needing a military or police escort, this kind of load still represents some serious haulage. Being able to cope with this weight in one trip can save business operators a lot of money. This is multiplied many times over the long distances travelled by hauliers in and around the Northern Territory.

LOGISTICAL SOLUTIONS

Of course, a lot of the resources come in containers. Shipping containers are 8ft (2.43m) wide, 8.5ft (2.59m) high and either 20ft (6.06m) or 40ft (12.2m) long. There are also “high cube” containers available, which are 9.5ft (2.89m) high.


Although originally designed for ships, it often makes logistical sense to carry these on trucks. Rather than having to unpack everything inside them and re-stow it, lifting the whole container is much easier.


Containers can be loaded onto trucks via external cranes, or by the trucks themselves. Tilt trays and side loading gear are perfect for this job. They can both pick up and drop off containers in remarkably tight situations. This is just another example of how efficient heavy transport towing has become thanks to industry professionals.

  • What is the most common tow truck?

    The most common tow truck is the flatbed tow truck. This type of truck features a long, flat platform that can be hydraulically inclined to ground level, allowing vehicles to be driven or winched onto it. Flatbed tow trucks are preferred for their versatility and safety, as they can transport many vehicles without causing damage. They are beneficial for towing luxury cars, motorcycles and vehicles with low ground clearance. Flatbed tow trucks are also ideal for transporting vehicles involved in accidents, ensuring they remain secure and stable during transit. If you need a tow truck in Darwin, we’ve got you covered.

  • When to consider towing?

    Towing should be considered in several situations: if your vehicle breaks down due to mechanical issues or a flat tyre, after an accident to remove damaged vehicles from the scene, in cases of illegal parking to clear access and for transporting heavy machinery or equipment that cannot be driven on public roads. Towing ensures these vehicles are moved safely and efficiently. Reach out to us for all your heavy haulage towing needs.

  • How to protect transmissions while towing?

    Always use the right equipment to protect your vehicle’s transmission while towing. Flatbed tow trucks are ideal for automatic transmissions, as they keep all wheels off the ground, preventing stress on the transmission. Disconnecting the drive shaft can prevent damage to rear-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive vehicles. Always consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual for specific towing instructions and drive carefully to avoid sudden starts and stops that can strain the transmission.
