Motorcycle Towing
Specialized motorcycle transport with the care and expertise your bike deserves.
Why Motorcycle Towing Is Different
Motorcycles require special handling during transport. Unlike cars, bikes are not designed to be lifted by their wheels or dragged onto a truck. They have unique weight distribution, sensitive bodywork, and components that can be easily damaged if not handled correctly. That is why you need a towing service that specializes in motorcycle transport, not just a regular tow truck driver who will treat your bike like any other vehicle.
When you call us for motorcycle towing, we send a truck equipped with the right tools and equipment to handle your bike safely. We use wheel chocks, soft straps, and secure tie-down points to keep your motorcycle stable and protected during transport. Our drivers are trained in proper motorcycle loading techniques, so you can trust that your bike will arrive at its destination in the same condition it left.
Common Motorcycle Towing Situations
Here are some of the most common reasons riders call us for motorcycle towing:
- Breakdown or mechanical failure that leaves you stranded on the road
- Accident or collision that makes your bike unsafe to ride
- Flat tire when you do not have a repair kit or cannot fix it yourself
- Dead battery that prevents your motorcycle from starting
- Transporting a new or used motorcycle you just purchased

How We Tow Motorcycles Safely
Safely towing a motorcycle requires the right equipment and proper technique. We use a combination of flatbed trucks and specialized motorcycle carriers to transport bikes securely. Here is how we make sure your motorcycle arrives without a scratch.
Step 1: Secure Loading
When our driver arrives, they will assess your motorcycle and determine the best way to load it onto the truck. For most bikes, we use a flatbed with a ramp system that allows us to roll your motorcycle onto the platform. We position the bike upright in a wheel chock, which holds the front wheel in place and keeps the motorcycle stable during transport.
Step 2: Proper Tie-Down
Once your bike is on the truck, we secure it using soft straps attached to designated tie-down points. These straps are designed specifically for motorcycles and will not damage your paint, chrome, or bodywork. We use multiple attachment points to prevent any movement during the ride, and we check the tension carefully to make sure everything is snug but not overly tight.
Step 3: Safe Transport
During transport, our drivers take extra care to avoid sudden stops, sharp turns, or rough roads whenever possible. We understand that motorcycles are more sensitive to movement than cars, so we drive smoothly and keep your bike stable. If you need long-distance transport, we offer long-distance towing services that include regular checks to ensure your bike stays secure throughout the trip.
Step 4: Careful Unloading
When we reach your destination, we carefully release the tie-downs and unload your motorcycle using the same ramp system. We take our time to make sure the bike is stable and secure before handing it over to you. If you are not available to receive your motorcycle in person, we can coordinate delivery with a friend, family member, or shop.
