Motorcycles and scooters are not only worth a lot, but also difficult to secure while being shipped. Though, it turns out that everything depends on how we do it and how much previous experience with transport we had gathered. It is doable to ship a motorcycle or a scooter without difficulties, undoubtedly. The way it will be secured depends on the mean of shipment. Owing to some useful tricks you can avoid any scratches, and dents that often happen if a moped or motorbike is not properly secured.

When you are moving your motorbike using a trailer you will need 4 belts to strap it down. If you use a trailer specially dedicated for motorcycles or scooters, it already has been equipped with the rail that stabilises the motorbike. In this case you will need only 2 belts. It is important 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 transport.

It is also worth checking the sharp edges or objects that may possibly rip the belts and make the safe transport impossible. It's also possible to transport a motorbike in a truck. The protection and equipment obligatory to keep the motorbike mounted safely in one place will not vary too much from other ways mentioned before. One thing to be considered will be installing the side pads to prevent any damage to the insides of the van and other objects that might accompany the motorcycle.

There are also platforms that attached to a car or another vehicle, can let you transport your motorcycle not occupying the whole space in the car.

It is important to check with the transport company if the equipment they provide will be enough to carry your motorcycle. For instance, 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 severe damage to your motorbike/motorcycle.
