Why Specialized Equipment Matters for Motorcycles
Motorcycles are not like cars. They have different weight distribution, balance points, and vulnerable parts. Using standard towing methods can damage your bike or create safety hazards during transport. That is why we use specialized motorcycle towing equipment designed specifically for two-wheeled vehicles. Our truck-mounted wheel chocks secure the front tire and keep your bike upright throughout the journey. We use soft straps that hold firmly without scratching paint or chrome finishes.
Standard tow trucks are not built to handle the unique needs of motorcycles. Your bike could tip over, slide during transit, or suffer cosmetic damage from improper tie-downs. Our equipment eliminates these risks. We transport motorcycles on flatbed trucks with built-in ramps for safe loading and unloading. Whether you ride a cruiser, sport bike, touring motorcycle, or dirt bike, we have the right setup to handle it. Our drivers receive specific training on motorcycle handling and loading procedures.
Every motorcycle tow starts with a careful inspection. We check the condition of your bike and document any existing damage before loading. This protects both you and us. Once secured, your motorcycle stays stable even on rough roads or sudden stops. We also offer 24/7 emergency towing services for riders who break down at any hour. You can trust us to treat your motorcycle with the same care you do.
Common Situations That Need Motorcycle Towing
Riders call us for many different reasons. Breakdowns are the most common. Your motorcycle might refuse to start because of a dead battery, fuel system issue, or electrical problem. Maybe your engine overheated on a long ride or you ran out of gas in an area without nearby stations. Mechanical failures like a broken chain or seized engine also require professional transport. Trying to push a heavy motorcycle long distances is dangerous and exhausting.
Accidents are another reason riders need our help. Even minor crashes can make a motorcycle unsafe to ride. Damaged wheels, bent frames, or broken controls mean you cannot ride home. We provide safe transport to your preferred repair shop or home address. Flat tires on motorcycles are especially tricky because they affect stability and steering. Unlike cars, you should not ride on a flat motorcycle tire even for short distances.
Sometimes riders need transport for non-emergency reasons. You might be moving to a new home and need your bike transported long-distance. Or perhaps you bought a motorcycle from a private seller and need it delivered. We also help riders who are physically unable to ride due to injury or illness. Whatever your situation, we provide reliable motorcycle towing when you need it. Our team also offers roadside assistance for quick fixes if your issue can be resolved on-site.

How We Protect Your Bike During Transport
Protection starts before we even load your motorcycle. Our drivers arrive with clean equipment and inspect your bike carefully. We take photos to document its condition and note any existing damage. This ensures complete transparency throughout the process. Loading happens on a gentle incline using a truck-mounted ramp. We never force or drag your motorcycle onto the truck. One operator guides the bike while another controls the winch or pushes carefully.
Once on the flatbed, we secure your bike using a proven method. The front wheel goes into a specialized chock that holds it upright and prevents movement. We use multiple soft tie-down straps attached to solid points on your motorcycle. These straps are positioned to avoid contact with fragile parts like mirrors, gauges, or painted surfaces. We check tension to ensure the bike is stable without over-compressing the suspension. Proper tie-down technique prevents shifting during transit while avoiding cosmetic or mechanical damage.
During the drive, our operators take extra care on turns, stops, and rough roads. We avoid sudden movements that could stress the tie-downs or shift the load. When we reach your destination, we reverse the process with the same attention to detail. Your motorcycle is carefully unloaded and inspected again to confirm it arrived in the same condition as when we picked it up. Whether you need emergency towing or planned transport, we handle every bike with professional care.
