Secure loading, wheel chocks or pallets, and carriers who know tie-down angles—not the same as strapping a bike in a pickup. Built for motorcycles, ATVs, and UTVs with clear, insured handling.
Typical guidance from transport checklists and industry blogs—summarized for your planning.
Interstate motorcycle moves should use carriers that hold valid operating authority and insurance appropriate for motor vehicles. You can cross-check USDOT and MC numbers through public FMCSA tools the same way you would for a car hauler.
Before pickup, most shippers recommend a clean bike so existing scratches are obvious, photos from several angles, correct tire pressure, and only a small amount of fuel in the tank (many carriers cap fuel to reduce weight and leak risk). Remove loose accessories—saddlebags, GPS, alarms that could drain the battery—and fix fluid leaks so the bike is stable to load.
Carriers secure bikes with soft ties, chocks, or skids depending on equipment. Communicate aftermarket bars, fairings, or width so the right trailer and tie pattern is reserved.
