Motorcycle towing, strapped down upright

A bike is not a small car. It needs to stay upright, with the weight spread evenly and the straps pulling in the right places. We carry motorcycles on a flatbed and secure them upright with straps for the ride. Tell dispatch what you ride and whether it still rolls.

When to call

Your bike died on the road and won't restart
A flat or a failed chain has you stuck
You went down and the bike can't be ridden
You need it moved to a shop or dealer

How it works

Describe the bike to dispatch: make, model, whether it rolls, and anything that sits low or sticks out, like a lowered frame or saddlebags.
The driver rolls it up the ramp onto the flatbed.
At the drop-off, it comes off the bed the same careful way.

Cruisers, sport bikes and dirt bikes

A heavy cruiser, a low sport bike and a light dirt bike each load differently. Fairings, low exhausts and long forks all need attention. Mention anything unusual about your bike on the call so the driver can plan the load.

After a crash

If you went down, get checked out before you worry about the bike. Call 911 if you are hurt. The motorcycle can wait, and we will move it once you are safe.

Runs to a shop or dealer

Need the bike taken to a motorcycle shop or dealer in Lancaster or Valencia? Give dispatch the address and the distance goes into your price.

Motorcycle towing questions

How do you carry my bike on the truck?

The driver loads it onto a flatbed and straps it upright.

Can you tow a bike that won't roll?

Often, yes, but tell dispatch in advance. A bike with a locked wheel or a broken chain may need extra help loading.

Can you take it to my dealer?

Yes, within our service area. Give dispatch the address, and the estimator or the phone price will include the distance.
