Nationwide Group

Nationwide Group comprises Nationwide Towing & Transport, Eastern Van Services and Nationwide Roadside Services and was established in 1987. In May 2020, the Royal Auto Club of Victoria acquired 100% of the Nationwide Group. As an award-winning and certified industry leader, Nationwide has grown to be the largest provider of emergency roadside assistance and specialist transport and towing services in Australia. Over the last 30 years, Nationwide has consolidated a fragmented industry to create a truly national provider with high levels of service, governance and professionalism. Our credibility and professionalism is reflected by the calibre of our customers which include Australian Automobile Clubs, insurers, statutory corporations, roads authorities, Police and regulatory bodies, councils, leading corporates and the general public. With highly specialised fleet, equipment, people and certifications in Health, Safety, Quality and Environment, Nationwide is unrivalled in the market. Our team of over 700 people operates a specialised fleet of over 500 service vans and trucks across VIC, QLD, WA and NSW. Annually our team completes 350,000+ roadside assistance jobs and 450,000+ vehicle and plant and equipment movements, and the numbers are growing rapidly. As an innovator and leader in the industry, Nationwide has built its reputation around service excellence and compliance, based on systems and processes in areas of quality, safety and advanced technology. Much of Nationwide’s success can be attributed to its investment in its people and a clear strategy, vision, mission and values. Our people have driven our achievements and growth, making Nationwide “a great place to work” and consecutive Employer of Choice 2020 and 2021. Nationwide has an ambitious agenda for growth, leveraging its excellent brand and assets. And with the support and backing of the RACV, the Nationwide Group has a bright future and strong growth agenda.
