About jump starts
Many tow operators carry jump packs and will get you started for a callout fee cheaper than a tow. If the car starts but dies again, the alternator or battery needs attention, and continuing to jump it just strands you somewhere worse. A good operator will tell you honestly whether to drive it or tow it.
Getting quotes in Wongarra
Before booking a tow truck operator for jump starts, ask whether the price includes GST, callout and materials, and get it in writing. The quoting spread between operators in the same suburb is bigger than most people expect, which is exactly why comparing pays.

Quick answers
What details should I have ready when I call?+
Location pin or street corner, vehicle make and model, whether it starts and rolls, and where you want it taken. Mention underground car parks or low clearances immediately, since not every truck fits. A photo of the car's situation helps the operator send the right gear the first time.
How much does towing cost?+
Local breakdown tows typically cost $100 to $250 within a metro area, with per-kilometre rates around $2 to $5 applying to longer runs. After-hours, weekends and difficult recoveries cost more. Accident towing fees are regulated in several states, so the crash-scene price is not a negotiation.
Can I choose where my car is towed after an accident?+
Generally yes: you or your insurer nominate the destination, commonly the insurer's assessor or your preferred repairer. Get the tow operator's company name, truck registration and a receipt before the car leaves the scene, and photograph the vehicle. If police attend, they may direct the tow, but your insurer still coordinates from there.
