Katherine Towing & Salvage

Katherine Towing & Salvage has been helping drivers get out of tight spots across the Northern Territory's Top End for years. Run by Ken and his crew, this local outfit handles everything from emergency roadside assistance and accident recovery to long distance towing and heavy vehicle work. They've sorted caravans, camper trailers, Mercedes vans, and plenty of everyday cars that've broken down on the Stuart Highway or gotten stuck out bush. One thing customers regularly mention about Ken is how far he'll go, literally. He's towed vehicles from Pine Creek after a rollover, picked up stranded travellers late in the evening on Central Arnhem Highway, and made the run to Darwin when needed. Folks appreciate that he takes on after-hours callouts, with one group rescued at 8pm and driven back into Katherine well past midnight. If you're stuck out on a remote stretch of road, you can rely on a local operator who'll come out and get you sorted. Ken's known for being professional and careful with the gear he's loading, whether he's winching a caravan onto the flatbed or hooking up a breakdown. Several customers mention his reasonable pricing and willingness to do a good deal, especially on longer hauls. Katherine Towing also works with RACV via their NT affiliation, so if you've got roadside assistance cover, they can sort that out too. Weekend availability is handy, they're open Saturday and Sunday arvo if you need a tow or some help. Grey Nomads touring the Territory, locals needing a lift to the mechanic, or anyone who's had a prang out near Victoria River can all rely on Katherine Towing & Salvage as a reliable name for towing and salvage services in Katherine and surrounds.
