Towing and Trade-Experienced

Industry Contributor at Quokka Towing

With a background that spans mining, construction, transport, and digital marketing, Levi Saunders brings a rare mix of hands-on trade experience and industry-focused marketing expertise to the towing sector. His writing is grounded in real work with real trucks, not theory, and aims to give everyday drivers and tow operators clear, no-nonsense information they can trust.

Levi began his trade career in exploration drilling as an off-sider, working long shifts in remote conditions across Western Australia. Those early years shaped his approach to safety, vehicle awareness and problem-solving on the job. He later worked across the mining and construction industries in Perth, gaining a practical understanding of how heavy vehicles, machinery and on-site logistics come together in real-world environments.

He holds an unrestricted HR truck licence and an off-road truck licence, and has spent years behind the wheel of a wide range of vehicles. This includes everything from light commercial utes through to heavy rigid trucks and tilt-tray vehicles. That experience gives him a clear understanding of:

  • Safe towing practices
  • Vehicle handling and load stability
  • The challenges tow truck operators deal with every day

Alongside his trade and transport background, Levi has more than a decade of experience in digital marketing, with a large portion of his work dedicated to towing companies across Australia. He has worked closely with tow truck owners and operators, helping them grow their businesses while gaining deep insight into how the towing industry works behind the scenes.

A key part of his role is staying on top of state-by-state towing regulations, ensuring the information he writes is current, accurate and relevant. No two states operate the same in the tow truck industry, and Levi’s job is to keep content aligned with these differences so drivers get reliable guidance when they need it most.

His broader marketing experience with haulage companies and transport-related businesses further strengthens his understanding of logistics, vehicle recovery, and roadside operations. That knowledge allows him to explain complex situations in simple, practical terms that make sense to both tow operators and everyday motorists.

At Quokka Towing, Levi’s goal is straightforward: provide clear, helpful, experience-driven information that helps people make safer decisions and understand exactly how towing works across Australia. His content blends practical knowledge with a grounded writing style, keeping things easy to follow without losing accuracy or detail.
