Outback Vehicle Recovery

I recently had my car completely submerged and made unsalvageable in the recent floods in Alice Springs. Needed to tow the car away for insurance assessment after being told by the residential services that we had to organise on the weekend to ensure our cars were moved. One call to OVR, Jimmy took my call and was extremely helpful in working out how quickly this could be done. He was so easy to deal with in a fairly stressful time for me. We often bag our local services but truly these guys are gems and the real deal. A colleague who did not have insurance, had just moved to Alice and in the same situation as i was treated very fairly and given a truly generous quote by these guys. We salute you guys and are truly thankful for you.

OVR are the best in the business! I contacted them before our big family road trip across Oz to have a backup plan in case our van broke down across the notorious Gibb River Road. Jimmy was super helpful with some great advice leading up to the trip. When we finally had an actual breakdown with a hole and slow leak in our radiator enroute from Broome to Darwin, he got back to me straight away evening after hours! We were in Fitzroy Crossing WA and a long way from home. Jimmy had found options for us within 15-30mins with a flatbed trailer available to freight our vehicle with all our belongings to Darwin for $7k. He offered to check a few other freight companies in the morning to see if there were more economical options to backload a road train. Sure enough, I got a message first thing the next morning with a $2k quote for a road train to take our van directly to our preferred repairer in Darwin to hopefully get us back on the road and back down home to Sydney. Jimmy is an absolute legend, not asking anything from us and refused reimbursement for his time. I cannot recommend using OVR if you find yourself and your vehicle in trouble anywhere between Alice Springs and Broome. Jimmy has really saved us a lot of stress and running around, making what could be a tricky situation quite straight forward in the end. We will definitely try dropping into Alice on our way gone to say a big thank you in person!
