Does Craig's Towing handle accident recovery work across the South-West NSW border region?

Absolutely. Craig's Towing covers accident recovery right across North-West Victoria and into South-West NSW, including Broken Hill. With VACC accreditation backing their work, they've handled collision recoveries on rural highways and regional roads for over three decades. Their crew knows the routes and conditions around Ouyen and the NSW border, so they're prepared for the challenges of remote accident sites where vehicle damage needs careful handling.

Can Craig's Towing repair my vehicle after towing it, or do I need to find another shop?

Craig's Towing operates under Mel Schmidt Panel Works, which means they handle the full job — towing, panel beating, spray painting, and even sandblasting. If your car's been in an accident near Mildura or suffered body damage, they'll tow it back and complete the repairs in-house. This setup saves you the hassle of coordinating between a tow truck operator and a separate panel shop, streamlining the entire recovery and repair process.

Is Craig's Towing available for breakdowns in the middle of the night along remote highways?

Yes, their 24/7 service covers overnight breakdowns on remote stretches like the roads between Mildura and Ouyen or heading toward Broken Hill.

With 35 years of experience navigating North-West Victoria's road network, they're equipped to reach you no matter when or where you're stranded.
