SA Best Towing

Glenelg tow truck, from Jetty Road to Glenelg North

The tram runs down the middle of Jetty Road to its terminus at Moseley Square, so a Glenelg tow can start right beside the tracks. We also tow from Holdfast Shores, the Patawalonga and the streets of Glenelg North.

Glenelg has tow truck cover from SA Best Towing, whose tilt tray runs down South Road and Anzac Highway from its yard in Angle Park. It tows cars, motorbikes and classic cars around Holdfast Bay, on Adelaide’s coast, including Jetty Road. Phone 0457 300 057 with the street.

Jetty Road and the tram

Jetty Road is Glenelg’s main shopping strip. A car that stops on it sits close to the tram tracks, and the truck needs room to set up clear of them.

Parking around Moseley Square gets tight on summer evenings. Tell us the side street you’re in and the nearest shop or corner, so the driver can find a spot to tilt the tray. Our yard is about 19 km away, at the far end of Anzac Highway and South Road.

Holdfast Shores, the Patawalonga and Glenelg North

North of the jetty, Holdfast Shores and the Patawalonga boat harbour bring apartment car parks and marina parking into the mix. If your car is in a basement, it may need to come up to street level before it goes on the tray, so tell us whether it rolls and steers.

Across the Patawalonga, Adelphi Terrace runs up through Glenelg North. If you own a classic or a low car, tell us when you book. It travels strapped by the wheels, and a low front spoiler or long nose is worth mentioning too.

Questions about towing in Glenelg

Local answers. Ring if yours isn’t here.

Can you tow a car from Jetty Road while the trams are running?

We can. Tell us exactly where the car is and which way it faces, so the driver can plan where to load. If your car has stopped on or across the tracks and you can’t move it, get to the footpath and call 000 first, then call us on 0457 300 057.

I’m visiting Glenelg and my car won’t start. Where can it go?

Any workshop in Adelaide that will take it. Give us the workshop’s name and address when you call and we’ll price the trip from Glenelg to its door before you commit. If you don’t know a mechanic here, ask your accommodation for a nearby workshop, check it can take the car, then give us that address.

Can you collect a car from the marina parking at Holdfast Shores?

From an open-air bay with room behind it, we can. Tell us which side of the Patawalonga you’re on and the nearest building. A car in an apartment basement has to come up to the street first, which works if it can be driven or pushed up the ramp.
