What Townsville looks like.
Trucks, plant and machinery
Trucks, plant and earthmoving gear are 24-volt rather than 12, and they are worked on here alongside cars.
The tropics are hard on wiring
Heat, humidity and the wet season are what age a harness up here. Corrosion in connectors, water finding its way into looms, and batteries worked hard by air conditioning and short trips — and it is why we test before replacing anything.
Work utes, canopies and fleet vehicles
Service bodies, canopies, work utes and fleet vehicles, kitted with lighting, dual batteries, toolbox locking and trailer wiring.
Boats, carts and touring rigs
Boats on trailers, 4WD and touring set-ups, golf carts and electric UTVs — all of it comes through the same workshop.

Townsville questions, answered.
- Where is the Townsville workshop?
- 448 Woolcock St, Garbutt QLD 4814, with parking on site. Garbutt is Townsville's main light-industrial area, so we are set up for trucks and machinery as well as cars.
- What are your opening hours?
- Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. Closed Saturday, Sunday and public holidays.
- Can I just walk in, or do I need to book?
- Battery testing and fitting is a walk-in — bring the vehicle and we will test the battery and the charging system before selling you anything. The free AC check for the most common light vehicles (Toyota, Mazda, Ford, Isuzu and similar) is a walk-in too. Anything that needs the vehicle on the hoist or a proper diagnostic session is booked in, so the bay and the time are set aside for you.
- Do you work on trucks and machinery, or only cars?
- Both. Cars, utes and 4WDs, and 24-volt work on trucks, plant, earthmoving gear and agricultural machinery. Boats on trailers come inside as well, and golf carts and electric UTVs are serviced on the same floor.
- Do you cover my suburb?
- Our catchment covers Townsville and out to the Burdekin, Bowen and the Whitsundays, the Hinchinbrook coast, Charters Towers and the Tablelands. The suburb list on this page is the Townsville coverage — if yours is not on it, ring us and ask.
- Is there auto electrical work done at the Cairns branch?
- No. The Cairns branch trades as Lift Easy Townlec and covers golf carts, leisure carts, castors and material handling, with a workshop section that services and repairs carts. Electrical work is organised through the Townsville workshop — ring us and we will work out the best way to do the job.
