Coverage Based in Thomastown
The truck is based in Thomastown, so Melbourne’s northern suburbs get the fastest response, and the rest of metropolitan Melbourne is covered around the clock. Regional Victoria and interstate runs are booked transport rather than on-demand roadside work.
All Over Towing is one truck and one operator, so coverage is a question of distance and timing rather than a list of postcodes on a website. The truck is based in Thomastown, in Melbourne’s north. Everything else is measured out from there.
In practice that splits three ways. The northern corridor, from Coburg and Preston out through Reservoir, Bundoora, Epping and Craigieburn, is where the truck can be quickest, and where most of the urgent work comes from. The rest of metropolitan Melbourne is covered around the clock, with an honest arrival window given on the call. Regional Victoria and interstate are booked ahead, quoted on the actual route.
Suburb pages exist for the areas we are asked about most often. They are not the boundary of where a tow truck will travel, so if your suburb has no page, call anyway.
Access matters more than distance on a lot of jobs. A tight laneway or a low car park changes the approach, so mention it early.
Coverage Melbourne and Victoria
Fastest through the northern suburbs, around the clock across metropolitan Melbourne, and booked ahead for regional Victoria and interstate.
The base
The truck lives here, which is why the northern corridor gets the shortest response times we run. Everything else is measured out from this point.
Fastest response
The truck is based in Thomastown, which puts the whole northern corridor inside the shortest response times we run.
The west is covered daily, reached via the M80 Ring Road and the Western Ring Road from the Thomastown base.
Towing across Melbourne's western suburbsThe east is served for both urgent towing and booked transport, reached along the Eastern Freeway and the Metropolitan Ring Road.
Towing across Melbourne's eastern suburbsSouth-east Melbourne is covered for booked transport and for urgent jobs where the truck is free, running down the Monash Freeway and the Princes Highway.
Towing across south-east MelbourneRegional Victoria is planned work rather than on-demand roadside, quoted per job based on the route and timing.
Vehicle transport across regional VictoriaInterstate work is quoted per job rather than off a rate card, because the price depends on the route and whether a return load exists.
Interstate vehicle transport from MelbourneFAQ Coverage
Urgent jobs are taken across metropolitan Melbourne whenever the truck is free, with the northern suburbs quickest because the base is in Thomastown. Anything beyond the metro area is planned work: a date, a window and a price agreed before the truck leaves.
Usually yes, and you will be told so honestly on the call. A job in Werribee or Pakenham is a longer run than one in Lalor. What matters is that you get a realistic arrival time up front rather than an optimistic one that leaves you waiting.
Distance is one of the things that goes into the quote, along with the vehicle and the time of day. Ben prices the actual job on the call rather than reading off a per-kilometre table, and you hear the number before anything moves.
Almost certainly. The suburbs with their own pages are the ones we are asked about most, not the limit of where the truck goes. Call and say where you are and you will get a yes or a no rather than a maybe.
