Outback Recovery Service

Outback Recovery Service has been handling heavy towing and recovery work across Western and Central West NSW for over 16 years, with more than 25 years of combined towing experience. Based in Brocklehurst near Dubbo, owner David and his team, including mechanic James, cover everything from emergency roadside assistance to long-distance heavy vehicle recovery, earning them a 4.8-star Google rating from 48 reviews. What sets this outfit apart is their willingness to respond when others won't. Customers regularly mention David taking calls at 3am, driving 11 hours round trip to rescue stranded families, or being the only tow truck willing to come out on a Sunday when other services said they'd need to wait until Tuesday. One traveller broke down Saturday afternoon between Adelaide and Brisbane, and David arrived first thing Sunday morning while competitors offered Tuesday appointments. Another customer's son crashed near Dubbo, and David coordinated with police, located the vehicle, and secured it in their yard straightaway. The team handles serious heavy vehicle work, caravans with broken axles, motorhomes needing mechanical repairs, articulated vehicles, and over-dimensional loads. Their 48ft semi-tilt tray and pilot vehicle service mean they can tackle machinery relocation and building transportation across regional NSW and Australia-wide. Customers appreciate that David and James don't just tow, they repair on the spot when possible, using parts from their yard to get vehicles moving again. One motorhome owner mentioned nobody else in Dubbo would even look at their Fiat Ducato, but James and David sorted it. Reviews consistently note the affordable pricing and genuine care from David and his wife. Available around the clock, they've helped everyone from interstate travellers to local families, often in the middle of nowhere, with a level of commitment that keeps customers calling them legends.
