By attending our Learn to Tow course you will enjoy the benefits of having skilled instructors teach you in a friendly supportive environment. This course is designed to build your confidence and skills with lots of practice. We conduct our courses at a variety of venues, so when you apply for training, we can advise you of your nearest training venue. Gravel road tips are included. In addition we conduct Off Road Towing courses for the owners of Camper Trailers who want to venture off the beaten track to enjoy their asset. Outback gravel roads are not off-road. Cape York's telegraph track is off-road.

Do I need my own vehicle and caravan?
We don't provide hire vehicles ourselves — if you don't have your own towing vehicle or caravan, you'll need to arrange a hire vehicle through a local car or caravan hire company before the course. Trailers can be hired through Move Yourself or You Haul — a dual axle furniture van is a good option.
What if it's wet on the day?
We reschedule rather than cancel — you're welcome to pick any other course date or venue that suits you. We're just not able to offer refunds.
Is this for experienced towers too?
Absolutely — in 21 years of running this course, even people with 40 years of towing experience tell us they learned things they'd never come across before.
