Motorbikes and mopeds are not only worth a lot, but also difficult to secure while being transported. Although, it turns out that everything depends on the way we do it and how much prior experience with shipping we have gathered. It is feasible to ship a motorbike or a moped without difficulties, no doubts about that. The way it will be secured depends on the method of transportation. Owing to some valuable tips you could avoid any damages, and dents that are likely to happen if a moped or motorbike is not properly cared for.

When you are transporting the motorbike on a trailer you will need 4 strapping belts to strap it down. If you use a trailer which is created for motorbikes or scooters, it already has been equipped with the rail that stabilises the motorbike. In this case you will need only two belts. It's neccessary to use a closed hook at the ends of the belts, rather than an open one. The closed hook should not open up accidentaly during the shipment.

It is also worth looking at the sharp edges or items that may possibly tear up the belts and make the safe transport impossible. It's also doable to transport a motorbike in a van. The protection and equipment necessary to keep the motorcycle resting safely in one place will not differ too much from other ways mentioned before. One thing that should be taken under consideration will be the installation of the side pads to protect the insides of the van and other objects that may be transported with the motorbike.

There are also platforms that hooked to a car or van, can let you ship your motorcycle without occupying the entire space in the truck.

Remember to check with the shipping company if the equipment they provide will be enough to ship your motorbike. For example, using a wooden stand for lifting your scooter and loading it in a truck could pose danger to people providing the service or pedestrians passing by, but could also cause substantial damage to your motorbike/motorcycle.
