Towing in Newcastle
We move what others can't.
Newcastle Towing
At Easylift Newcastle Tilt & Towing, we understand that every towing job comes with its own set of challenges. Whether it’s a roadside breakdown, machinery relocation or an emergency callout, our Newcastle-based team is ready with the right tools and know-how to handle it efficiently.
We use tilt tray trucks for safer, more stable loading and transport — especially important when dealing with low-clearance vehicles, accident recoveries or heavy equipment. Being local means we know the streets, traffic conditions and access points around Newcastle, allowing us to respond quickly and plan smarter. Our 40-foot self-loading tray gives us added flexibility to manage oversized or awkward loads others can’t.
If you’re in Newcastle and need a tow that’s handled with care and precision, call us on

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a vehicle be towed from a private property or residential street?
Yes, vehicles can typically be towed from private properties or residential streets, though the process may require consent from the property owner or local council. If the vehicle owner is not present, some form of written authorisation may be needed. In cases involving unauthorised vehicles, extra steps—like police notification or formal documentation—might be required. Local regulations vary, so it’s important to confirm what's legally permitted in the specific area.
What is the usual wait time for urgent towing in regional areas?
Wait times for urgent towing in regional areas can vary widely depending on location, time of day, weather and service demand. In more populated regional centres, assistance may arrive within 30 to 90 minutes. In remote areas, however, wait times could stretch to several hours. Traffic conditions and vehicle availability also play a role, especially during peak periods or emergencies.
Are electric or hybrid vehicles suitable for tilt tray transport?
Yes, electric and hybrid vehicles can be safely moved using a tilt tray, which is often the preferred method due to its flat loading surface. These vehicles may have specific handling requirements due to battery systems and lower ground clearance. Using a tilt tray helps reduce risk of undercarriage damage or electrical disruption. It’s important that the towing setup accommodates the unique structure of the vehicle.
Fleet Capability & Equipment
Our tilt trays are custom-built for flexibility, giving us the capacity to load, secure and transport a broad range of vehicles and machinery. From light vehicles to site sheds, we use purpose-fit gear like winches, skates and tie-down points to keep everything secure in transit.
Our 6T courier trucks and 40-foot tilt trays provide enough range for short hauls or long-distance transport, and we can navigate tricky sites like job zones, sloped access or tight driveways with confidence. We’re set up to handle challenging recoveries too — mud, gravel, off-road or wet conditions don’t slow us down.
Whether the job needs a fast lift, a careful relocation or detailed site coordination, we’ve got the gear and experience to make it happen.
Jobs We Handle Daily
We regularly help civil crews, local tradies, commercial operations and private owners get their gear where it needs to be. That might mean recovering a bogged 4WD from a bush track, transporting a non-runner to a workshop, or relocating a container between sites.
We also work with customers needing after-hours, weekend or public holiday support — because we know things go wrong outside the 9–5. Our team is flexible and responsive, offering support for pre-booked jobs or short-notice pickups. If we’re moving something under 8 tonnes, chances are we’ve done it before.
