Why Motorcycles Need Specialized Towing

Every rider knows that a motorcycle cannot be towed like a normal car. Standard wheel-lift tow trucks are designed for four-wheeled vehicles, and attempting to drag a motorcycle behind one is a recipe for catastrophic damage to the frame, forks, and fairings.

When a bike breaks down on the Anthony Henday or suffers a flat tire in downtown Edmonton, it requires highly specialized handling. The greatest fear of any rider is seeing their bike tipped over on a flatbed or scratched by a heavy metal hook.

At Alberta Safe Towing Ltd, we treat your bike with the respect it deserves. We use modern hydraulic flatbed trucks equipped with dedicated front-wheel cradles (chocks). Our operators are trained to secure motorcycles perfectly upright using a precise 4-point soft-strap ratcheting system. This slightly compresses the suspension to lock the bike in place, ensuring it remains totally stable during transit without a single metal chain ever touching your paint or chrome.

How We Protect Your Motorcycle

Soft-Strap Tie Downs

We absolutely refuse to use metal chains or rigid hooks near your bike. We use heavy-duty nylon soft-straps that wrap gently around the triple tree and frame to prevent scratching.

Vertical Cradle System

We don't lay bikes on their side. We use specialized wheel chocks that hold the front tire steady, keeping the entire motorcycle safely upright during the entire trip.

Low-Angle Loading

Lowered cruisers or sportbikes can easily scrape their exhaust on steep ramps. Our hydraulic flatbeds tilt down to provide a gentle, low-clearance loading angle.

Fast 20-40 Min ETA

Standing on the side of a busy highway without the protection of a car cabin is dangerous. We prioritize motorcycle calls to get you to safety as fast as possible.

Fully Insured Transport

Whether you ride a custom chopper or a brand new Ducati, your investment is fully protected by our comprehensive commercial cargo and liability insurance.

All Bike Types Handled

From massive Harley-Davidson touring baggers and three-wheeled trikes to lightweight dirt bikes and nimble sportbikes, we have the gear to transport them all.

Ready for Anything

When Do You Need Motorcycle Towing?

Mechanical Breakdowns

Snapped clutch cables, dead batteries, or sudden engine failures on the road. We’ll get your bike safely to your trusted mechanic in Edmonton.

Flat Tires

Unlike cars, motorcycles don't carry spare tires. If you pick up a nail on the highway, pulling over and calling for a flatbed is the only safe option.

Winter Storage Transport

When the Edmonton snow arrives, driving your bike to the storage facility is dangerous. We provide safe transport to keep it out of the cold.

Accident Recovery

If you've been in a spill, your bike's forks or wheels may be compromised. We carefully lift and transport wrecked bikes to the collision center.

Precision Loading

Our 4-Step Loading Process

1

Deck Deployment

The operator lowers the flatbed deck to create a highly gradual ramp, ensuring the exhaust and fairings clear safely.

2

Smooth Roll-On

The motorcycle is carefully rolled up the ramp (either manually or assisted via winch) into the specialized front-wheel cradle.

3

4-Point Soft Strap

We loop nylon soft straps around the structural frame/forks (avoiding cables) and gently ratchet the suspension down to lock it upright.

4

Safe Delivery

The deck is raised, and your bike is transported smoothly to the destination, where we reverse the process to unload it safely.

Your Queries Answered

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my motorcycle get scratched during towing?
Absolutely not. We exclusively use nylon soft-strap tie-downs that wrap gently around your bike's structural points (like the lower triple tree or solid frame rails). We never let metal hooks or chains come into contact with your paint, chrome, or delicate fairings.
How do you keep the motorcycle from tipping over?
We use a specialized front-wheel chock that holds the front tire firmly in place. Once the bike is upright, we use a 4-point ratcheting system to pull the bike forward and slightly compress the front suspension. This locks the bike in a rigid, vertical position so it cannot sway or tip during transit.
Can you tow large heavy cruisers or touring bikes?
Yes! Our hydraulic flatbeds and heavy-duty tie-down systems are fully capable of safely handling the weight and width of large touring motorcycles, baggers, and heavy cruisers like Harley-Davidsons or Indian Motorcycles.
Can you tow three-wheeled motorcycles (Trikes)?
Yes, our flatbed trucks are wide enough to accommodate three-wheeled trikes and Can-Am Spyders. We adjust our strapping techniques to secure the rear axle/wheels properly.
Do I need to be present when the bike is dropped off?
If we are dropping the bike off at a repair shop or dealership, you usually do not need to ride in the truck with us. We can drop the bike off and handle the key handover with the service advisor on your behalf.
Do you transport motorcycles out of town?
Yes, we offer long-distance transport services for motorcycles. If you bought a bike in Calgary and need it brought to Edmonton, or need to relocate it across the province, we can provide a competitive per-kilometer quote.
