Crash Scene Assistance

Accidents happen. So what can be done to deal with them quickly and effectively to minimise the disruption to your business?

Deal with the experts

We’re experienced in dealing with all manner of freight. That’s one thing. The other is we know your industry and we know about commercial motor vehicles. All of this means that we send the right tow truck, to the right place, at the right time. This will help to minimise damage to vehicles and unnecessary loss of freight. And it will make sure that assessment and repairs will happen quicker.

Comprehensive coverage

It’s 24/7. It doesn’t matter whether it’s 3pm or 3am. It’s nationwide. It doesn’t matter whether it’s Te Puke or Te Anau. We’ll get to your vehicle ‘as soon as’.

Practical assistance

As well as vehicle salvaging, we can take care of the road clean-up, any environmental issues and driver support if it’s needed. That means you’re free to focus on the needs of your business.

And the benefits?

  • Things will start happening at the crash scene faster
  • The immediate cost of salvage is reduced
  • The potential loss of freight is minimised
  • Vehicle assessment occurs more quickly
  • Your vehicle will be back on the road faster.

Provide yourself with the security of knowing that when an accident happens, our team of experts is ready to respond.
