The question every rider asks

How do you tow a motorcycle without damaging it?

A motorcycle has nothing to lean on but the tie-down. We load yours on a flatbed, lock the front wheel in a wheel chock, and run soft straps around the bars or frame — never over plastics, levers, or with a hook-and-chain. The bike rides upright and arrives exactly as it left.

How we load every bike
  • Loaded on a flatbed — never towed on its own two wheels
  • Front wheel locked in a wheel chock, upright the whole way
  • Soft straps looped on the triple-tree or frame, not the plastics
  • 3–4-point tie-down; ramp or winch for a bike that won’t roll
What we never do
  • No hook-and-chain — ever
  • No wheel-lift dragging the bike down the road
  • No straps over fairings, levers, grips, or controls
  • Never left to lean, tip, drop, or scratch

Is this you right now?

If this is your bike, you’re in the right place.

Find your situation below and call — we run these every week across the metro, and the right chock and straps are matched before we roll.

Broke down on the road

Won’t start, electrical gremlin, or a flat on I-94 or a surface street. We get you and the bike off the road fast.

Dropped it / low-side

Down in a corner or a parking lot. We load it on the flatbed without adding a single scratch to what’s already done.

Won’t start, roll, or no key

Project bike, seized engine, dead battery, or a lost key. We winch or ramp it on — it doesn’t need to run.

Just bought it

Dealership or private-sale pickup. We bring it home loaded and secured the same careful way — chock and soft straps.

Long-distance or track day

Open transport between cities, dealers, or the track. Tell us the pickup and drop-off and you get a price up front.

Trike or Can-Am Spyder

Wider and heavier with two wheels on one end — we load and secure three-wheelers differently, but they ride flat safe.

What we tow

Every kind of bike — handled for what it is.

A sportbike and a trike have different worries. Pick yours and we’ll show how we load and secure it — the same call the dispatcher makes so the right chock and straps arrive ready.

Flatbed + wheel chock

Soft straps on the triple-tree — nothing on the plastics.

Fairings and rear-sets leave little to grab, so we chock the front wheel and run soft straps to the triple-tree and frame — never over bodywork, levers, or controls. It rides upright and arrives unmarked.

What it costs

The scary part isn’t the price — it’s not knowing it.

A local bike tow is a flat hook-up from $125 plus $4 per loaded mile — most run $135–$200. Three things move it: distance, the type of bike (standard, trike, ATV, or a heavy custom), and how tricky the recovery is. Build an estimate below; you always hear the exact number on the call, before we load.

What changes the price

Distance

A flat $125 hook-up plus $4 per loaded mile. A short hop to your shop is the low end; a cross-county haul costs more.

Type of bike

A standard bike is the base; a trike, ATV, or heavy custom runs up to $150. Customs over 1,000 lbs automatically get flatbed handling — no improvised loading.

Recovery difficulty

A bike that won’t roll, has locked steering, or went down off the road needs a winch or ramp and more time on scene — locked steering is handled with proper equipment, never dragged.

Time of day

We run 7 days a week at published rates — evening calls carry +15%, overnight +25%, always quoted before we load.

On a motor club or rider plan (AAA, HOG, your insurer), keep your receipt — we bill the provider directly where supported, or itemize it for easy reimbursement.

While you wait

Bike down? Do these first.

A few quick moves keep you and the bike safe while we’re on the way. Then sit tight — the driver will call as they get close.

Hazards on, get visibleIf the bike’s 4-ways work, flip them on. Stand where drivers can see you, day or night.
Get the bike off the roadIf it’s safe and it rolls, walk it onto the shoulder or sidewalk — away from live lanes.
Leave it in gear or on the standPark it in first gear or on the side/center stand so it stays put. Don’t fight to keep it upright on a slope.
Don’t guard it in trafficWait behind a barrier, not in a live lane. Have your location, the bike, and the drop-off ready for the driver.

Milwaukee rider reviews

Fast — and careful with the bike.

Low-sided my sportbike on a ramp and was sure it’d get wrecked getting picked up. Nope — they chocked the front wheel, soft-strapped it to the triple-tree, and didn’t add a single scratch. There in about 25 minutes.

My Harley wouldn’t start in the garage and I didn’t want some hook-and-chain dragging it. They winched it up the ramp onto a flatbed, strapped it upright, and treated it like their own. Price was exactly what they quoted.
Dana G. West Allis · via Google
Bought a bike two counties over and needed it home. Easy to schedule, fair flat rate, and the driver knew exactly how to secure it — chock, soft straps, the works. No surprises. Will call again.
