Skip tracing in Melbourne
People Trackers Australia is based in Melbourne and licensed by Victoria Police under the Private Security Act 2004 (Vic). We locate people, debtors and businesses across metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria, and serve legal documents filed in Victorian courts.
Melbourne is where we actually operate from. Field calls, in-person address verification and document service across the metropolitan area can generally be arranged quickly and without the travel loading that applies to interstate attendances.
What is different about working in Victoria
We are physically here
Melbourne is our base, not a service area we cover from somewhere else. Field calls and in-person address verification across metropolitan Melbourne can usually be arranged quickly, without travel loading.
Victorian court documents
We serve documents filed in the Magistrates', County and Supreme Courts of Victoria, and at VCAT, with a sworn affidavit of service ready for filing.
Victorian property searches
Title ownership and encumbrance searches are conducted through Land Use Victoria, which matters when establishing whether a Victorian debtor holds recoverable property.
Regional Victoria is not an afterthought
Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Gippsland and the north are regular working areas rather than exceptions. Travel is quoted upfront.
