Call 0418 898 372 for 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.
Heavy Transport Towing
As a region dependent on its rich resources, there is a lot of freight movement 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 flatbed or tilt tray tow truck is the most common type. It allows the entire vehicle to be loaded onto the tray, keeping all wheels off the ground. This reduces the risk of damage during transport and is suitable for a wide range of vehicle types.
When to consider towing?
Towing is necessary if a vehicle has broken down, been in an accident, has a flat tyre or battery, or is unregistered and can't legally be driven. It’s also used for transporting non-operational vehicles, heavy machinery, or relocating vehicles across longer distances without adding wear and tear.
How to protect transmissions while towing?
To protect a vehicle's transmission, use a flatbed or tilt tray where the vehicle is lifted completely off the ground. For non-flatbed towing, ensure it's in neutral and refer to the owner's manual for specific guidance. Improper towing can cause serious damage, especially in automatic or all-wheel-drive vehicles.
