Motorbikes and mopeds are not only worth a lot, but also not easy to protect while being shipped. However, it turns out that everything depends on the way we do it and how much prior experience with shipping we had gathered. It is feasible to transport a motorbike or a moped without hussle, undoubtedly. The way you will secure it depends on the mean of transportation. Thanks to some useful advice you will prevent any damages, and dents that often happen if a scooter or motorbike is not properly cared for.

When you are moving your motorbike on a trailer you will need four belts to strap it down. If you use a trailer specially dedicated for motorbikes or scooters, it already has been equipped with the rail that stabilises the motorbike. In this situation you will need only 2 strapping belts. It is essential to use a closed hook at the ends of the belts, rather than an open one. The closed hook will not open up accidentaly during the shipment.

It is also worth checking the sharp angles or elements that may possibly rip the belts and make it impossible to safely transport your motorcycle. It's also doable to transport a motorbike inside a truck. The protection and equipment obligatory to keep the motorcycle standing safely in one place will not differ too much from other ways mentioned before. One thing to be considered is installing the side pads to protect the insides of the truck and other objects that may be transported with the motorbike.

There are also platforms that hooked to a truck or van, can let you transport your motorcycle not occupying the whole space in the van.

It is important to check with the shipping company if the equipment they provide will be enough to transport your motorbike. For instance, using a wooden platform 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.
