For standard cars, everyday vehicle moves and non-drivable cars that do not need specialist low-clearance planning.

Prestige & LoweredCar Towing Brisbane.
Careful tilt-tray transport for vehicles where clearance and loading angle matter.
Lowered, modified and prestige vehicles need more planning than a standard car tow. Brisbane Towing Company checks ride height, front and rear clearance, wheel movement, modifications and access before the truck is dispatched.
Low car? Tell us about splitters, skirts, diffusers, suspension changes and any known clearance issues.

Low-clearance planning
The lowest point on the car matters more than the badge.
A prestige vehicle is not automatically difficult to load, and an ordinary car can become very difficult after suspension or body modifications. The important details are the actual clearances and how the car approaches the tray.
We need to know about low front splitters, side skirts, undertrays, exhausts, diffusers, coilovers, air suspension and any damage that has changed the vehicle's ride height.
Front approach
Splitter & front bumper clearance
Low front overhang can touch before the front wheels reach the tray, so the approach needs to be assessed before loading.
Centre clearance
Wheelbase and break-over angle
Long-wheelbase or very low vehicles can contact underneath as the car transitions onto the tray even when the bumpers clear.
Rear departure
Diffuser, exhaust & rear overhang
Rear clearance matters during both loading and unloading, particularly on modified or performance vehicles.
Before the truck leaves
Six details help us choose the right loading setup.
For low and higher-value vehicles, the best quote is based on the actual car rather than just the pickup and destination.
1Make & modelExact model and body style help us understand wheelbase, overhang and common clearance points.
2Suspension setupTell us if the vehicle is lowered, on coilovers, air suspension or another modified setup.
3Ground clearanceIf you know the approximate lowest point, include it. Photos can also help explain the setup.
4Running conditionDoes the car start, drive, roll, steer and release its brakes normally?
5Wheels & tyresFlat tyres, locked wheels or damaged suspension can change how the vehicle needs to be loaded.
6Site accessSteep driveways, kerbs and limited loading room can matter as much as the car itself.
Careful loading
The goal is a controlled loading angle, not simply pulling harder.
Low vehicles are assessed around clearance and movement. Suitable ramps can reduce the approach angle, while skates can help with selected non-running or difficult-to-roll cars. The exact setup depends on the vehicle and site.
1Check the approachFront, underside and rear clearance are considered before the car is committed to the tray.
2Use ramps where suitableAdditional ramps can lengthen the transition and reduce the effective loading angle for suitable vehicles.
3Use skates where appropriateSelected non-running cars may need skates if wheels are locked or normal rolling is difficult.
4Secure the vehicleThe vehicle is restrained for transport using a setup appropriate to the car, wheels and transport conditions.
5Unload with the same checksDestination slope, kerb and driveway clearance are considered before unloading.
6Stop if clearance is unsuitableIf the vehicle or location cannot be loaded safely with the available setup, the job needs a different solution.
Vehicles we assess
Prestige, performance and modified cars that need extra loading consideration.
The service is not limited to one badge or vehicle class. It is for suitable vehicles where clearance, value or modifications make the loading process more sensitive.
Prestige vehiclesSuitable higher-value sedans, coupes and SUVs where careful loading and transport are a priority.
Lowered carsModified suspension, coilovers or reduced ride height where ramps or a different approach may be required.
Performance carsLow front splitters, side skirts, diffusers and performance bodywork can require extra clearance checks.
Classic & show carsSuitable collector or show vehicles can be assessed for scheduled transport and workshop moves.
Air-suspension carsTell us whether ride height can be raised for loading and whether the vehicle has power available.
Non-running low carsCan be assessed where wheel movement, steering, brake release and clearance allow safe loading.
Common booking scenarios
Planned moves are often the best fit for prestige and lowered cars.
Many of these jobs are not emergency breakdowns. They are controlled vehicle moves where the owner wants the loading setup, timing and destination planned before the truck arrives.
1
Workshop or specialist deliveryTransport to a performance workshop, mechanic, detailer or specialist service provider.
2
Dealer or purchase pickupScheduled transport after a purchase, sale or dealer handover.
3
Home relocationMoving a suitable prestige or modified vehicle between homes, storage or another secure destination.
4
Non-running vehicle transportMoving a low vehicle that cannot be driven but can still be safely loaded with the available setup.

Pricing factors
What affects the quote for a lowered or prestige vehicle?
The distance is only one part of the job. Loading difficulty and access can matter more for a clearance-sensitive vehicle than for a standard car.
DistancePickup, destination and total travel distance remain part of the transport quote.
Ride heightVery low cars can require more loading preparation and a more controlled approach.
Vehicle conditionLocked wheels, flat tyres, steering issues or no power can change the setup required.
Site accessSteep driveways, kerbs, narrow streets and limited loading space can affect the job.
TimingUrgent, scheduled, weekend or after-hours availability can affect the final quote.

Prestige & lowered car FAQ
Questions to answer before transporting a low-clearance vehicle.
Can you tow lowered cars in Brisbane?
Suitable lowered and low-clearance cars can be assessed for tilt-tray transport. Tell us the make and model, approximate ride height, modifications, wheel condition and whether the vehicle runs and rolls so the loading setup can be checked before dispatch.
How do you load a low-clearance car onto a tilt tray?
The method depends on the car. Suitable ramps may be used to reduce the effective loading angle, and skates may be used where appropriate for selected non-running or difficult-to-roll vehicles. Front, underside and rear clearance are considered before loading.
Can you transport prestige or performance cars?
Suitable prestige, performance and higher-value cars can be assessed for transport. Tell us about low front splitters, side skirts, diffusers, suspension modifications and any other clearance-sensitive features.
Can you tow a non-running lowered car?
Possibly. Non-running lowered cars need additional checks around wheel movement, steering, brakes, suspension height and access. The vehicle must be loadable and securable without creating unsafe clearance problems.
What information do you need for a quote?
Provide the make and model, pickup and destination, whether the vehicle starts and rolls, known modifications, approximate ground clearance if known, tyre and wheel condition and any difficult access at either end.
Should I raise adjustable suspension before pickup?
If the vehicle has adjustable or air suspension and can safely be raised, tell us what ride-height options are available. Do not change the vehicle setup in a way that is unsafe or contrary to the manufacturer's instructions.
