Motorcycle Towing

Why Motorcycles Need Special Care

Motorcycles are not like cars. They balance differently, weigh less, and have parts that can be damaged easily if not handled correctly. Towing a bike requires different equipment and a different approach. You cannot just throw a motorcycle on any tow truck and hope for the best. That is a good way to end up with scratched paint, bent components, or worse.

Our Cedar Falls towing team understands this. We use specialized equipment designed specifically for motorcycles. Our operators know how to secure your bike properly without putting pressure on the wrong areas. Whether you ride a cruiser, sportbike, touring bike, or dirt bike, we have the right setup to keep it safe during transport.

How We Transport Your Bike

We typically use a flatbed truck or a specialized motorcycle trailer, depending on your bike and the situation. Here is what the process looks like:

• •Loading: We use a ramp or hydraulic lift to get your motorcycle onto the bed safely. If your bike can roll, we guide it carefully. If it cannot move, we use a winch with soft straps.
• •Securing: We attach your bike using wheel chocks and soft tie-down straps. The straps go on the frame or handlebars, not on parts that can be damaged. We compress the suspension slightly to keep the bike stable.
• •Transport: We drive carefully, avoiding sudden stops and rough roads. Your bike stays upright and secure the entire trip.
• •Unloading: At your destination, we remove the straps and guide your motorcycle down the ramp or lift with the same care we used to load it.

For longer trips, we also offer long-distance towing for motorcycles. The process is the same, just over a greater distance.

Common Motorcycle Towing Situations

You might need motorcycle towing for several reasons. Maybe your bike broke down on the highway and will not start. Maybe you were in an accident and the bike is too damaged to ride. Or maybe you just bought a bike and need it delivered. No matter the reason, we are here to help.

Riders in Cedar Falls also call us for seasonal storage transport. If you store your bike off-site during winter, we can move it there in the fall and bring it back in the spring. Some customers use us to transport bikes to rallies or events without adding highway miles to the odometer.

What to Expect When You Call

When you reach out for motorcycle towing, we will ask about your bike type, its condition, and your location. This helps us send the right equipment. If you are stranded on the road, we will get to you as quickly as possible. If you are scheduling transport for a purchase or move, we can work around your timing.

Pricing is based on the distance and the complexity of the job. We give you a clear quote upfront so you know what to expect. No surprise fees, no hidden charges. Just honest service from people who respect your bike as much as you do.
