The national ranges below are the honest baseline for Perth: no published Perth-specific figures met our sourcing bar, so local quotes land inside these bands, with WA labour rates and disposal fees the main local variables. This edition therefore points at the national Towing report as the canonical version until a sourced Perth figure lands.
