Tow truck near me in Ararat, Stawell and the Grampians

Ararat and Stawell sit on the Western Highway, the main road between Melbourne and Adelaide, with Halls Gap and the Grampians just off it. A breakdown on a holiday drive or a long-haul run is a long way from home, so it helps to send one request and see who can quote.

Give your real drop-off, whether that's a workshop in Ararat or Stawell or all the way back to Melbourne. Distance changes the price, so you'll want each quote to reflect it before you accept.

Why you can trust RoadM8 with your tow

You're stranded and handing your vehicle to someone you've never met. Here's what protects you when you book.

  • Operators are checked first

    Tow operators upload their driving licence and insurance papers for RoadM8 to review. They can't load jobs until they're approved and their Stripe account is verified.

  • Nothing to pay until you accept

    Send a request and compare first. If you don't accept a quote, you pay nothing.

  • You see who's coming

    Every quote shows the operator's name and price. Once you accept and add your card, you can see where they are on the map.

  • A PIN check at every handover

    You confirm with a PIN at pick-up and at drop-off, so you know your vehicle is with the right truck.

  • Card payments through Stripe

    You pay by card after you accept a quote. If the tow is cancelled before pick-up, you're refunded in full.

  • You can rate every tow

    After drop-off, you can rate the operator out of 5 stars.
