25.01.2022 Not everything can go to plan, even the rescuer can need rescuing. Our Pozi-track and winch went to rescue two stuck 4WDs down the back of Glasshouse Mountians. Access was slippery and boggy but Pozi got in with ease, winching the first 4WD out. As the 4WD didnt go he towed it clear, but luck went against us with the Pozi blowing a hydraulic line up under its belly guards, stopping it in its tracks. Unable to access the hydraulic line, and being in the middle of the bush our only choice was to send big Bertha in which we knew would struggle. We put another pozi on the back to assist if it got stuck. Big Bertha did have a few challenges but in the end both 4WDs plus one dead Pozi were recovered, with a fair bit of mud to be cleaned off.

25.01.2022 Bruce Highway Nambour , south bound, closed near Kiel Mtn Overpass. 4wd and Caravan Crash. Diversions through Nambour being put in place. Updates to come. Road clear, Highway open again.

25.01.2022 Always come across sad storys like this gentleman who decided he needed to get away, sold everything up, set up a van and 4wd to head off for a trip around the country. Just started trip and North of Gympie on the highway his engine stopped and the flames started. Luckily he was able to get out but was unable to stop the fire, and had to watch the fire engulf the vehicle and everything in it. The Fire Service was able to stop the caravan from being totally destroyed but just like a house fire people travelling Iike this can lose so many things that cant be replaced when vehicle fires occur.

24.01.2022 Caution, Bruce Highway Pomona, Southbound, crash, lanes closed. Traffic Banking up.

24.01.2022 Clayton's Caboolture Depot recovering a 4wd and caravan off the highway last night, that had been involved in a crash earlier in the day. The unit had got the wobbles up and ended up in a tangled mess down the bottom of a steep embankment, with the best part of everyone being all ok. Tow trucks were able to complete side pulls to keep the highway totally open during the process, but no doubt both units will be write offs.

22.01.2022 Claytons Towing is proud to be accepted into the CR2SM (Caloundra Road to Sunshine Motorway) Subcontractor Champions League, as presented by General Superintendent Peter Barnes.

20.01.2022 Absolute mayhem south of Rockhampton near Miriam vale today with two major crashes within a few hundred metres of each other. Our team responded with 12 heavy tow trucks plus our Major Incident Response unit working tirelessly through the day to clean up what was described as like a war zone. Main thing though is we all put our thoughts and prayers with those operators involved fighting serious injuries they received in just trying to do their job.

18.01.2022 Runaway vehicles is something that always keeps us busy, and they sure come in all sizes. Claytons have commercial certified divers on staff, so were also able to hook up with ease plus find the submerged golf clubs so the owner could finish his last tee.

15.01.2022 Happy Birthday Bill! You started Claytons in 1970, have seen it all, and 50 years on are still going strong out there in the thick of it. Well done, have an awesome day.

14.01.2022 You could never say that every job is the same being a towie, as our Gympie operator found when he arrived at this crash.

13.01.2022 If your heading to Farm Fantastic at Caboolture this weekend drop by and say hi to the Clayton’s Crew at our stand.

13.01.2022 Bruce Highway Parklands Yesterday. Crashes after getting the wobbles up arent just for cars and caravans. Best part is no injuries and even the boat come out fairly unscathed.

12.01.2022 Clean up of todays crash on the Highway at Nambour, picking up rolled vans in this condition always has its challenges. Luckily everyone is ok.

11.01.2022 Every Sunday is a traffic jam back to Brisbane but after the non Ekka long weekend and closed borders this one is next level. Traffic is already a crawl from Forest Glen to Caboolture south bound with no accidents reported. Picture now from Ilkley Road Overpass.

11.01.2022 Steve has been with Claytons for over 30 years and the right man to hit the road with our newest addition from Drake trailers in australia, a hydraulic widening, axle lifting, rear steer, quad-axle, low loader. Drake has supplied all our low loaders for our heavy equipment transport division, and there is no doubt their product is second to none. Also a big thanks to Byron from Drake for presenting this awesome memento in recognition of our 50 year celebration.

11.01.2022 After you lose it on a corner and end up like this. One Claytons Gympie operator recovered today. Car come out ok, driver did require new undies.

08.01.2022 One of our Mackay Operators loading a car off the side of a roundabout from a previous accident when he had visitor. Young lady was shook up, but luckily all ok.

07.01.2022 Transporting one serious fishing boat.

05.01.2022 Our new sliding axle mini super tilt hits the road. With its sliding axles it’s has the advantage of being able to load in those tighter spots that have limited space.

05.01.2022 GPS tracking must have been designed by a towie. This GPS fail from Mapleton, with towing recoveries after following one being a daily occurrence. Have you got a GPS story to tell?

04.01.2022 Deans Kenworth having a stretch pulling Hall Contracting 90 tonne Cutter Suction Dredge Navua out for maintenance work after clearing the Mooloolah River mouth and moorings.

04.01.2022 Check out these classic cars we transported down to Lloyds Auctions on the Gold Coast to be auctioned off.

03.01.2022 There was some mayhem on the highway today, but one thing noticed was how the traffic pulled up in a way that allowed emergency services and tow trucks through to clean up the mess, making the process so much quicker. Well done to all those involved, you will know who you are.

02.01.2022 Bruce Highway Caboolture. Lane change went wrong. Car pushed several hundred metres. Good news is both occupants of the car are ok. Claytons Caboolture team are in the process of removing the vehicles.
