Towing & roadside assistance in Northern Suburbs.
Need towing in Bellville, roadside assistance in Parow or help with a breakdown in Brackenfell? Share your exact location in Cape Town’s Northern Suburbs, vehicle details and what happened so the appropriate assistance can be confirmed.
Contact us 24/7. Availability, capability, price and arrival estimates are confirmed for your request.
People first. If someone is injured, trapped or in immediate danger, call 112 before arranging vehicle assistance. Do not attempt repairs in a live traffic lane.
A suburb name is a start. The collection point matters.
Bellville, Parow and Goodwood include residential streets as well as business premises. For a vehicle at a workshop, yard or office, send the business name and the actual vehicle entrance rather than only its postal address. Confirm that someone can authorise collection and open the gate.
On the N1 or another divided road, a location pin alone may not show which carriageway you are on. Give your direction of travel and the last exit or visible sign if you can identify it safely. Do not cross the road or walk to a sign to obtain these details.
For collection in Durbanville, Brackenfell or Kraaifontein, explain whether the vehicle is on a public street, driveway or inside a secured property. A locked wheel, damaged suspension or a load in a bakkie changes the information needed to assess recovery. A roadside repair is not always appropriate; towing may be the safer option.

Roadside assistance or towing?
For a car that will not start at home in Durbanville or Brackenfell, tell us whether the engine turns over, clicks or remains silent. Battery jump-start assistance may be appropriate, but symptoms alone do not confirm a battery fault. For a breakdown in Bellville or Parow, report warning lights, leaks or damage and discuss towing if the car cannot be driven safely. A bakkie collection should include its load and condition, not only its model.

- 01
On a divided road
Direction of travel, nearest known exit and whether the vehicle is clear of the traffic lane.
- 02
Inside a yard or business
Vehicle entrance, gate contact, opening arrangements and whether the vehicle rolls or steers.

Moving to a workshop
The destination address, receiving contact and whether the workshop can accept the vehicle.
Agree the arrangement directly
Confirm who will carry out the work, the suitable recovery method, total cost, any additional charges and the expected arrival time before authorising assistance. Heavy-duty requirements need a separate capability check. Preparing an online request does not send help or confirm dispatch.
REQUEST ASSISTANCENorthern Suburbs assistance FAQs
Can I request a tow truck in Bellville or Parow?
Yes. Call or send your location, vehicle condition and towing destination. Availability and the appropriate vehicle-handling requirements are confirmed for your request; no arrival time is guaranteed by this page.
What if I have broken down on the N1?
Report your direction and any safely visible exit or sign. If the vehicle is in a live lane or anyone is in danger, call 112 first. Do not attempt a roadside repair next to moving traffic.
Can you collect a vehicle from a business yard?
Explain the access restrictions and who can release the vehicle. Gate permissions, space and vehicle condition must be assessed before collection is agreed.
What about a loaded truck?
Heavy-duty recovery is an enquiry only. Send the vehicle type, weight, load and position so capability and availability can be confirmed. Do not assume a truck can be recovered with light-duty equipment.
Can I request battery assistance in Durbanville or Brackenfell?
Yes. Tell us the vehicle make, model, starting symptoms and whether it is parked somewhere safely accessible. A jump-start is not a guaranteed fix; availability and suitability are confirmed for the vehicle.
How do I arrange a tow from Kraaifontein to a Bellville workshop?
Provide both addresses, the vehicle condition and a receiving contact at the workshop. Confirm permission to release the car, workshop acceptance, the full charge and any additional fees before agreeing to transport.
