M1 corridor recovery
Breakdowns and incidents between Logan and the border, prioritised because of the traffic impact and handled with our own traffic management.
Gold Coast & Northern NSW
Gold Coast heavy towing, M1 to the border
A depot on the Coast covering Logan through to Coolangatta and across into Northern NSW — Tweed Heads, Ballina and Byron.
24/7 dispatch · six depots across South East QLD · we quote before we roll
The M1 between Brisbane and the Gold Coast carries more heavy vehicle traffic than almost any corridor in Queensland, and it does not forgive a breakdown. A truck stopped in a live lane on that motorway becomes everybody’s problem within minutes.
Delta Heavy Towing runs a Gold Coast depot precisely so the response does not have to come down from Brisbane. We cover Logan through to Coolangatta and across the border into Tweed Heads, Ballina and Byron Bay, with the same heavy units, rotator capability and 24-hour dispatch as the rest of the network.
Trucks, semi-trailers, B-doubles, road trains, buses, coaches, machinery and oversize loads — all handled by operators who work this corridor regularly and know where the pull-over options are.
What we handle

How it runs
Why the Coast depot matters
Same trucks, same crews, considerably less driving before they reach you.
- Local dispatch
The unit sent to a Coomera breakdown starts on the Coast, not at Heathwood. That difference is measured in tens of minutes on the M1 at the wrong time of day.
- Cross-border capability
Tweed Heads and Ballina jobs are normal work for us, not exceptions requiring special arrangements.
- Full heavy capability
Heavy units above 23 tonnes GVM, low loaders, tilt trays and rotator support — the Coast depot is not a light-duty outpost.
- 24/7, genuinely
Nights, weekends and public holidays included. One number, answered by a person.
- Quoted before dispatch
The price is agreed on the call and does not move afterwards.
Stopped on the M1?

Straight answers
Questions operators ask
What areas do you service on the Gold Coast?
The entire Gold Coast region from Logan south to Coolangatta, plus Northern New South Wales including Tweed Heads, Ballina and Byron Bay. We also connect through to Brisbane, Ipswich and Toowoomba as part of the wider network.
What types of vehicles do you tow here?
All heavy vehicles — trucks, semi-trailers, B-doubles, road trains, buses, coaches, machinery and oversize loads. Commercial fleets and industrial recovery are core work rather than sidelines.
Are you available after hours on the Coast?
Yes, around the clock including nights, weekends and public holidays. Call and dispatch sends the nearest available unit immediately.
How quickly can you respond to an M1 breakdown?
Motorway incidents are prioritised. With a depot on the Coast the response does not have to come down from Brisbane, and dispatch will give you a real ETA from wherever the closest unit currently is.
Do you do long-distance towing from the Gold Coast?
Yes. We run long-haul work throughout Queensland and New South Wales, including regional and remote areas, quoted with fuel planning and rest stops included.
