24-hour vehicle recovery, tilt tray towing, machinery transport, container transport and secure storage from a local Kununurra team built for remote WA conditions
A breakdown that might be a small inconvenience in the city can become a serious issue when you are hours from town, travelling along a remote road, working near a mine site, towing a caravan, moving machinery or heading through rough country. Roads can be long, conditions can shift quickly, and when something goes wrong, you need more than “just a tow truck”.
You need a towing and transport team that knows the region.
That is where East Kimberley Towing has earned its reputation.
Based in Kununurra and proudly supporting motorists, businesses and industries across the East Kimberley and beyond since 1997, East Kimberley Towing provides reliable, prompt and friendly towing, vehicle recovery and transport services across one of Western Australia’s most remote and demanding regions. With more than 30 years of combined industry experience, a modern fleet of well-maintained equipment and 24-hour availability, the team is built to respond when things do not go to plan.
From 24-hour vehicle recovery and tilt tray towing to machinery transport, heavy equipment haulage, portable building transport, sea container transport and secure storage, the team delivers practical solutions for locals, travellers, contractors, mining operators, civil crews, agricultural businesses and remote project teams.
Discover why East Kimberley Towing is the local partner that helps keep people, vehicles and projects moving.
Local knowledge matters when the roads are long and the conditions are tough
Operating in the East Kimberley is very different from operating in a large regional centre.
The distances are longer. The roads can be rougher. Access can be limited. Weather can change quickly. Some locations are well outside normal service areas, and when a vehicle or machine breaks down, waiting around is rarely a good option.
East Kimberley Towing understands those conditions because they work in them every day.
The team services a wide regional footprint, including:
That coverage is important for travellers, but it is just as important for businesses operating across mining, construction, civil works, agriculture, oil and gas support, tourism and transport.
A stranded vehicle or delayed piece of equipment is more than a nuisance. It can hold up a crew, delay a project, create safety risks or increase costs. A reliable towing and transport provider helps reduce that risk by responding quickly and handling the job properly.
East Kimberley Towing brings a practical mix of local experience, modern equipment and professional service to every job, whether it is a simple tow in Kununurra or a more complex recovery on a remote track across the East Kimberley.
On call day and night for breakdowns, incidents and remote recoveries
Breakdowns do not wait for business hours.
A vehicle can fail late at night, early in the morning, halfway along a remote road or during a busy workday. In the East Kimberley, that kind of problem needs a fast and organised response.
East Kimberley Towing provides 24-hour vehicle recovery, with experienced drivers available to recover vehicles, machinery and equipment whenever help is needed.
This service is especially valuable across the East Kimberley and beyond because the sooner recovery begins, the better the outcome is likely to be. Delays can cause problems such as:
East Kimberley Towing can respond across highways, remote access roads, off-road locations, mine sites and tourist routes such as the Gibb River Road.
Their recovery work is not just about getting to the location. It is about recovering the vehicle safely, loading it correctly and transporting it with care. Whether the job involves a light vehicle, 4WD, caravan, commercial vehicle or equipment, the team works to minimise further damage and get the asset back under control.
Modern tilt tray trucks designed for secure, damage-conscious movement
Not all towing methods offer the same level of protection.
Tilt tray towing is one of the safest and most practical ways to move vehicles that cannot be driven, have been damaged, are unregistered, have low clearance or need extra care during transport.
East Kimberley Towing operates modern tilt tray trucks, including 8-tonne and 12-tonne tilt tray trucks, as part of a versatile towing and transport fleet.
Tilt tray towing allows vehicles and equipment to be fully loaded onto the tray and secured for transport. This helps reduce wear, stress and the chance of further damage during the move.
Tilt tray towing is well-suited to:
In the Kimberley, where road conditions can be rough and distances are often long, this method gives customers added confidence. It is a safer, cleaner and more controlled way to move assets between locations.
Professional transport for the vehicles people rely on
East Kimberley Towing does more than recover broken-down vehicles. They also provide professional vehicle transport for a wide range of vehicle types.
Their vehicle transport services include:
|
Vehicle Type |

|
Motorcycles |
Careful loading and transport for bikes that need secure handling. |
|

Transport support for boats across regional and remote locations. |

|

This service is useful for locals, tourists, businesses, fleet operators, insurance-related moves and industry clients who need vehicles transported safely from one place to another.
In a region where people travel long distances for work and recreation, professional vehicle transport can save time and reduce stress. It is particularly helpful when a vehicle cannot be safely driven, needs to be relocated between towns, or must be transported after an incident.
East Kimberley Towing’s focus is simple: load it carefully, secure it properly and move it safely.
Supporting mining, civil, agriculture, construction and remote works
Transporting machinery in the Kimberley is not a simple task.
Heavy equipment needs the right trailer, the right loading method, careful planning and operators who understand weight, access, terrain and safety. East Kimberley Towing provides machinery and equipment transport across Kununurra, the East Kimberley and beyond, supporting industries that depend on reliable logistics.
Their machinery and heavy equipment transport services can assist with:
The fleet includes modern equipment designed for versatility, including floats with ramps and winches, 45-foot semi tilt tray trailers, extendable trailers up to 75 feet, and heavy-duty transport equipment.
This capability makes East Kimberley Towing a practical partner for businesses that need to move machinery between worksites, workshops, storage areas or remote project locations.
For mining and civil operations, equipment delays can cause flow-on effects across the job. A machine that arrives late may hold up earthworks, maintenance, drilling support, site access, or project handover. With experienced transport support, those risks are easier to manage.
For agriculture, machinery transport can help keep seasonal work moving. For construction, it supports project setup and relocation. For oil and gas support services, it helps move plant and equipment safely across large distances.
When customers search for machinery transport, equipment transport, heavy haulage, farm machinery transport, or mine machinery transport in Kimberley, East Kimberley Towing is well placed to help.
Moving site offices, storage units and containers safely across remote WA
Portable infrastructure plays a major role in remote and regional Western Australia.
Mine sites, civil projects, construction works, agricultural operations and remote businesses often rely on portable buildings and sea containers for storage, site offices, accommodation support, workshops and project facilities.
East Kimberley Towing offers portable building and sea container transport across the East Kimberley and beyond. Their services include transport of portable buildings up to 40 feet, sea container transport and access to Royal Wolf sea containers available for sale or hire.
This is a valuable service because moving portable infrastructure requires careful handling. Portable buildings and containers need to be loaded, secured, transported, and delivered safely, often over long distances and along uneven access routes.
Their transport support can assist with:
For companies setting up or relocating worksites, a transport partner with the right equipment can make the process much smoother. East Kimberley Towing helps reduce the stress of moving bulky, heavy and valuable assets into remote or semi-remote locations.
Safe storage for vehicles, caravans, campers, boats and trailers
Sometimes transport is only one part of the job.
A vehicle may need to be stored after recovery. A caravan may need a safe place while travel plans change. A boat or trailer may need short-term storage during a project or trip. A business may need secure storage between transport movements.
East Kimberley Towing offers secure storage facilities in Kununurra for:
This service provides added peace of mind for customers who need a safe place to store their asset before pickup, repair, relocation, or further transport.
Secure storage is especially helpful in recovery situations. After a breakdown or accident, not every customer can collect their vehicle immediately. Travellers may need time to arrange repairs, parts or onward transport. Businesses may need to manage logistics around site timing, insurance or fleet availability.
Having secure storage available through the same provider simplifies the process.
8T and 12T tilt trays, floats, winches and extendable trailers up to 75ft
One of East Kimberley Towing’s biggest strengths is its fleet.
The company has invested in a modern, well-maintained range of towing and transport vehicles designed to handle a wide range of job types under challenging conditions.
Their fleet includes:
|
Equipment |
Purpose |
|
8T tilt tray trucks |
Ideal for vehicle recovery, smaller machinery and general transport. |
|
12T tilt tray trucks |
Suited to heavier vehicles and larger transport tasks. |
|
45ft semi tilt tray trailers |
Useful for longer and larger loads requiring stable transport. |
|
Extendable trailers up to 75ft |
Designed for oversized or longer loads. |
|
Floats with ramps and winches |
Practical for machinery and equipment loading. |
|
Heavy-duty transport equipment |
Supports mining, civil, agriculture, construction and industrial jobs. |
This versatility means East Kimberley Towing can handle jobs ranging from a simple car tow to a more involved machinery transport project.
For customers, it reduces the need to coordinate multiple providers. A single local team can manage towing, vehicle recovery, machinery movement, container transport and storage support.
Transport and recovery services for industries where downtime costs money
The East Kimberley is home to major industries that rely on vehicles, machinery and logistics every day.
Mining, civil construction, agriculture, transport, tourism and oil and gas support operations all depend on equipment getting where it needs to be. When something breaks down, becomes bogged, is damaged or needs to be moved, delays can quickly become expensive.
East Kimberley Towing supports these industries with a practical range of services, including:
This makes East Kimberley Towing more than a general tow service.
They can help recover vehicles, move machinery between sites, transport equipment and portable infrastructure, move farm machinery and large components, and relocate machinery, containers, and site assets.
Reliable towing and transport can help ensure vehicles and equipment are moved safely across remote roads and project areas.
They are a practical logistics and recovery partner for industries where time, safety and reliability matter.
The Kimberley requires calm decision-making and proper equipment
Recovering a vehicle or machine in a remote area is very different from towing a car from a suburban street.
Remote recovery requires planning. Operators need to understand the route, access, terrain, vehicle condition, load requirements and safety risks. They may need to work on rough roads, in isolated locations or under time pressure.
East Kimberley Towing has been supporting the region since 1997 and brings decades of transport industry experience to these jobs.
That experience helps in several ways.
First, the team understands the local terrain. They know that a recovery near Kununurra is different from one on the Gibb River Road, near Lake Argyle or further out toward remote communities.
Second, they understand the importance of asset protection. A damaged or stranded vehicle can often be worsened by poor recovery techniques. Proper loading, securing and transporting all matter.
Third, they understand that communication is important. In remote areas, customers need to know what is happening, when help is coming and what the likely process will be.
That combination of knowledge, equipment and communication is what gives customers confidence.
One local team for recovery, towing, transport, containers and storage
The phrase “tow truck” often undersells what East Kimberley Towing actually provides.
Yes, they tow vehicles. But their work covers a much wider range of transport and recovery needs.
They assist with:
That range makes the company especially useful for customers who need more than one service.
For example, a civil contractor may need a container delivered, a machine relocated and a ute recovered from a remote road in the same month. A mining client may need heavy equipment transport and 24-hour recovery support. A traveller may need a caravan stored after a breakdown.
East Kimberley Towing provides the flexibility to handle these needs through one trusted local provider.
Professional standards with a regional WA attitude
In regional WA, good service still matters.
People want providers who answer the phone, communicate clearly, show up when they say they will and treat customers properly. In stressful situations such as breakdowns, accidents or remote recoveries, that friendly and professional approach can make a big difference.
East Kimberley Towing is known for reliable, prompt and friendly service. The team combines modern equipment with a practical local attitude — professional enough for industry work, but approachable enough for everyday drivers and travellers.
That balance matters because their customers are varied. One call might come from a tourist stranded with a caravan. Another might come from a site supervisor needing equipment moved. Another might involve a local driver whose car has broken down in town.
Each job deserves care, clear communication and a safe outcome.
Don’t wait until a small problem becomes a bigger one
In remote regions, waiting too long can worsen a vehicle or transport issue.
A breakdown can block access. A vehicle left unattended can be exposed to weather or security risks. Machinery delays can affect project schedules. A caravan issue can interrupt travel plans. A container or portable building stuck in the wrong location can hold up site setup.
