Tilt Tray TowingBrisbane.
A flexible towing option for cars, breakdowns, low vehicles, commercial vehicles and suitable loads.
Brisbane Towing Company provides tilt tray towing across Brisbane and surrounding South East Queensland. Tilt trays allow the loading platform to lower toward the ground, making them useful for many non-running vehicles, workshop moves, planned transport and suitable specialist loads. For customers looking for flatbed towing in Brisbane, a tilt tray provides a flat carrying deck for suitable vehicles and loads.
Before dispatch: vehicle condition, actual weight, dimensions, clearance and pickup access can all affect the right truck.

When tilt tray towing fits
One towing platform, several different job types.
Tilt trays are commonly used where a vehicle or suitable load needs to be winched or driven onto a flat carrying deck rather than towed with its wheels on the road.
01
Breakdown vehicles
Suitable cars that will not start or cannot continue safely can be loaded and transported to a repairer or another destination.
02
Prestige & lowered cars
Loading angle, front overhang, wheelbase and underbody clearance should be checked before the truck is assigned.
03
Light commercial vehicles
Suitable vans, utes and small commercial vehicles can be assessed using actual weight, dimensions, wheelbase and access.
04
Machinery & forklifts
Suitable compact equipment may be transported where actual operating weight, dimensions and site access fit the assigned truck.
05
Workshop & dealer moves
Scheduled transport between homes, workshops, dealers, storage facilities and business premises.
06
Non-rolling vehicles
Locked wheels, damaged tyres or steering problems can change the loading method, so tell us the true condition before dispatch.
Job suitability
The tray is only one part of the assessment.
A tilt tray does not automatically make every vehicle or load suitable. The assigned truck still has legal carrying limits and needs enough room to load safely.
Actual weightUse actual vehicle or machine weight where possible, not only a model class or rated capacity.
DimensionsLength, width, height and wheelbase can affect deck fit and route suitability.
ConditionTell us whether it starts, rolls, steers, brakes and has any locked or damaged wheels.
Site accessThe truck needs safe room to position, lower the tray and winch or drive the load onboard.
Tilt tray vs service type
Choose the page that matches why the vehicle is being moved.
“Tilt tray” describes the truck platform. The service page should still match the actual job — breakdown, planned vehicle transport, prestige car, machinery or commercial vehicle.

What can a tilt tray tow?
A tilt tray can transport many suitable cars, breakdown vehicles, vans, utes and some equipment. The correct truck depends on actual weight, dimensions, clearance, condition and access.
Can a tilt tray load a non-running car?
Often yes. Tell us whether the vehicle rolls, steers and brakes, and whether any wheels are locked or damaged so the loading method can be assessed.

Suitable lowered vehicles can be assessed. Front, rear and centre clearance, wheelbase and suspension condition all affect the loading angle.

Suitable compact machinery can be assessed where actual operating weight, dimensions, load distribution and site access fit the assigned truck.
