Late-Night Recovery in Wombat State Forest 🌙

We got a late-night call-out at 12:14 am and were on-site by 1:25 am, deep in Wombat State Forest One of those tricky spots with almost no phone reception and pitch-black bush tracks.

The customer’s car was bogged pretty deep, and finding them was the first challenge. Once located, we used a kinetic recovery strap for a smooth, controlled pull no harsh jolts or damage to the vehicle.

It wasn’t the best lighting for photos out there in the forest, but the job went safely and smoothly. Within minutes, the vehicle was free and the customer was back on their way.

No matter the hour, terrain, or weather, Blackstock Roadside Service is ready to respond 24/7 across Melbourne’s western suburbs, regional areas, and national parks.


Customer Feedback

“I got stuck in a national forest at 12 and they came out and got my car out of the ditch.
They stuck around to make sure I got out of there safe.
Extremely thoughtful, affordable and quick.”

📺🚗 Keeping an eye on the fleet

Even while on the tools!
We’ve had Verizon Connect tracking running for a while now, but we’ve just added a TV setup downstairs in the workshop so we can keep an eye on our drivers while working on cars.

Makes it easier to see who’s out on jobs around Melbourne and keep everything running smoothly.

Always improving how we operate 👌
Blackstock Roadside Service, the name you can trust.

 

🚗⚙️ Car Park Extraction Completed!

We were called out to a tight car park today for a vehicle extraction — low roof, awkward angle, and a car that wasn’t moving on its own. I (Chris) was in the tow truck, teamed up with James, and my mate Cory, who works at Hyundai, came along to give us a hand. Bit of teamwork, the right gear, and we had it safely out in no time. Funny twist — the car happened to be a Kia, so Cory felt right at home helping out 😄 Another clean recovery 👏
