WP Tilt Tray Towing Service

We make vehicle transport completely safe and stress-free. Tell us about your vehicle and where it needs to go. We’ll give you an upfront quote for tilt tray transport. Our driver shows up with a hydraulic tilt tray truck that tilts down to ground level. Your vehicle can be driven on or carefully winched aboard – no lifting, dragging, or stress on your car.

Once loaded, your vehicle sits on the flat tray, completely off the road surface. It stays level during transport. This eliminates transmission wear, tire damage, and the stress that comes with traditional towing. Perfect for all-wheel drive vehicles, luxury cars, damaged vehicles, or any situation where traditional towing could cause problems.

Throughout transport, your vehicle remains secure and protected, arriving at the destination in exactly the same condition. We handle all documentation and insurance requirements while providing the gentlest possible transport method for your vehicle.

All-Wheel Drive and 4WD Vehicle Transport

All-wheel drive and four-wheel drive vehicles can be damaged by traditional towing methods due to their drivetrain configuration. Tilt tray transport eliminates this risk by keeping all wheels off the ground, preventing transmission damage, differential stress, and expensive drivetrain repairs. This is essential for Subaru, Audi Quattro, BMW xDrive, and other AWD systems.

Damaged Vehicle Recovery

When your vehicle has been in an accident or suffered mechanical damage, traditional towing can cause additional harm. Tilt tray transport allows damaged vehicles to be loaded without further stress on damaged components. This includes vehicles with transmission problems, suspension damage, or structural issues that make traditional towing unsuitable.

Luxury Vehicle Transport

Prestige and luxury vehicles benefit from tilt tray transport’s gentle loading process and secure transport method. Expensive vehicles with low ground clearance, custom modifications, or valuable components receive the careful handling they deserve, with no risk of scraping, dragging, or component damage during loading.

Tight Space Recovery

Vehicles stuck in difficult positions – underground car parks, narrow driveways, or confined spaces – can be challenging for traditional tow trucks. Tilt tray trucks can position themselves more effectively and use winching systems to load vehicles from challenging locations without additional maneuvering that might cause damage.

Types of Vehicles Perfect for Tilt Tray Transport

Over 25+ years, we’ve transported every type of vehicle using tilt tray methods. From everyday family cars to specialised vehicles, our tilt tray service provides the safest transport option when gentle handling is essential.

All-Wheel Drive Vehicles

Subaru, Audi Quattro, BMW xDrive, Mercedes 4MATIC, and other all-wheel drive systems can be damaged by traditional towing because not all wheels can be lifted simultaneously. Tilt tray transport keeps the entire drivetrain safe by elevating all wheels, preventing expensive transmission and differential damage.

Damaged and Accident Vehicles

Vehicles involved in accidents often have compromised structural integrity, damaged suspension, or transmission problems. Traditional towing can worsen existing damage. Tilt tray loading eliminates stress on damaged components, ensuring accidents don't result in additional repair costs from improper towing.

Low-Clearance Sports Cars

Sports cars, modified vehicles with lowered suspension, and cars with front spoilers risk damage from traditional towing ramps and lifting equipment. Tilt tray transport provides level loading that protects ground effects, custom bodywork, and low-hanging components.

Luxury and Prestige Vehicles

High-value vehicles deserve the gentlest transport method available. Tilt tray service eliminates the risks associated with wheel-lift towing, dollies, and traditional methods, ensuring expensive vehicles receive premium care throughout the transport process.

Classic and Modified Cars

Restored classics and heavily modified vehicles often have irreplaceable components, custom work, or delicate mechanical systems. Tilt tray transport provides the careful handling these special vehicles require, protecting decades of restoration work or expensive modifications.

Vehicles with Transmission Issues

Cars with transmission problems, including those that won't shift properly or have clutch issues, can be further damaged by traditional towing. Tilt tray transport eliminates transmission stress, protecting expensive mechanical components from additional damage.
