What Towing Looks Like North of the Harbour
Each of those three areas asks something different of a tow truck, and we plan the job to match.
Harbour-side high-rise and basements
North Sydney, Chatswood and the St Leonards corridor are full of office and apartment towers with height-limited basements. Give us the clearance when you book, and we’ll send equipment that fits, then ease the vehicle out cleanly. Around Macquarie Park, we also handle forklift and equipment moves for the business park.
Steep, leafy streets on the Upper North Shore
St Ives, Hornsby and the streets around them are hilly and tree-lined, with long, steep driveways and bush blocks. We bring a truck suited to the grade and the access, and take the load low and slow where the driveway is tight.
On and off the Northern Beaches
The Northern Beaches run along a peninsula served by a handful of arterials, Pittwater Road, Warringah Road and Mona Vale Road, with the Spit Bridge the main pinch-point back toward the city. We plan recovery and transport around the traffic, and handle beach-side streets and the Brookvale industrial estate for machinery and plant moves.

Wherever the job sits, north of the harbour or out on the peninsula, we match it to the right truck before leaving the depot. These are the five we run most across the north:

We approached Select Tilt Tray Group to transport a 10T forklift from Sydney to Gloucester. The machine was collected without hassle and delivered to our workshop on schedule. Definitely the name in forklift transport, no one has the experience or equipment these guys do. Highly recommend 5 stars.Posted on Google![]()

Today, Rick delivered, with his tilt truck, an old caravan that we bought. He was very careful, and the van arrived perfectly well at our place. I am very pleased to share this review with everyone as we are very happy with ‘Select Tilt Tray Group’. The team is super friendly, the offer was fair and they were also very quick to do the delivery. Communication with them was super easy, phone calls and emails etc. We are very happy.
