Why BIG RIG RESCUE?
We have the best team and gear of course!
When it comes to towing, a monster is needed to haul a monster. Big Rig Rescue have an arsenal of heavy duty tow and transportation trucks on standby at our Rotorua and Taupo locations.
Hydraulic Under Lift
These systems are particularly useful for vehicles with low bumpers and fairings, there is no need to remove and refit these so it speeds up the recovery and repair process.
Drive-shaft removal is recommended for all frontal towing to ensure the drive train is not affected.
These systems have superseded the ‘pole towing’ method, which is unsafe and illegal in other countries.
Hydraulically Extendible Crane Booms
Our hydraulic booms are rated to lift a heavy vehicle off an object or put back on its wheels.

Have you been in an accident?
STAY CALM
STEP 1:
If you have been in an accident, first and foremost, check that everyone involved is ok and move to a safer area.
STEP 2:
Call 111 if someone has been hurt or if you suspect someone has been hurt. We would suggest that the police are called in any instance, as keeping traffic flowing safely will be essential. You will be required to stay on the line, so have a second person or phone to call us asap as this won’t be done for you.
STEP 3:
Even if your vehicle is blocking traffic, leave it where it is, particularly if there is uncertainty about what happened in the accident.
