Your motorcycle will not start, or you need to move it to a shop. Our bike towing team can help in New Westminster, BC. Towstar Towing and Recovery™ handles motorcycles, scooters, and other two-wheel rides with care. Explore our towing service options to learn more. Tell us where your bike is, what happened, and where it needs to go.
A bike needs more care than a car when it is loaded for a tow. We check the pickup spot, plan the lift, and use the right tie-down points. Our flatbed towing service can keep a motorcycle fully off the road during the trip. This is useful after a flat tire, a dead battery, or a ride that will not start.
If your motorcycle quits on Columbia Street or near Royal Columbian Hospital, pull into a safe place if you can. Move away from traffic and tell dispatch your closest street or landmark. A light-duty towing team may be able to help arrange the right truck for your bike. Never try to push an unsafe motorcycle through busy lanes just to reach a pickup point.

Some motorcycles break down in a condo parkade, a tight lane, or a busy lot. Those places may have low ceilings and little room to turn. Tell us about gates, ramps, and height limits before we send a truck. Our underground towing options show why access details matter. We will review the space and discuss a safe way to bring your bike out for loading.
Not every motorcycle tow starts with a roadside problem. You may need to move a bike from your home to a dealer, or from a repair shop to a new storage place. We can discuss local trips and long-distance hauling for farther moves. Give us the pickup address, drop-off address, model, and bike condition so the plan fits your needs.
First, tell us your bike type, its condition, and where it is parked. Next, we check truck access and the best way to load it without scraping low parts. Bikes need their own tie-down plan, even when a truck also handles trailer towing jobs. Once your ride is secure, the driver takes it to the address you gave and follows drop-off instructions.
A motorcycle can lean or shift if it is not held the right way. Our team reviews wheel position, strap points, and the bike’s shape before moving it. Some vehicles use dolly towing equipment, but a motorcycle often calls for a different setup. Tell dispatch about fairings, bags, custom parts, and low ground clearance. These details help us plan careful loading.
Need a Quote before scheduling in for roadside assistance?
A motorcycle towing quote can change with distance, time, access, and the kind of bike you own. A small scooter may not need the same setup as a large touring motorcycle. Tell us whether the wheels roll and whether the steering is locked. Work that needs special equipment transport can follow a different price plan. Ask for the full estimate before booking.
Good motorcycle transport starts with a load that cannot tip or slide. The driver should use suitable support and secure tie-down points, not just a loose rope. The province sets rules for safe loads, including the need to prevent shifting. You can read the B.C. load securement rules for more detail. Ask how your bike will be held before the trip begins.
A small step can make a pickup easier. Take your keys and any loose bags, then note the bike's exact spot. If the motorcycle has been in a crash, do not force it to roll. Tell the driver about bent wheels, fluid leaks, or damage near the forks. We can discuss what can be moved and whether a safer pickup method is needed.
Towstar Towing and Recovery™ can help when a motorcycle needs to get to a local garage, a home, or a dealer. If you also need to move a work vehicle, ask about separate truck towing services. We plan each vehicle move based on its size and condition. Clear details let us give useful advice before a driver heads to your pickup point.
From Queensborough and Sapperton to the busy streets near New Westminster Station, every motorcycle pickup is a little different. We ask about the bike, access, and where it needs to be delivered. Towstar Towing and Recovery™ can explain when a flatbed truck is a good fit for your ride. Call with your details, and we can discuss the next safe step.
Yes. A motorcycle that will not start may still be moved with a suitable flatbed setup. Tell us if the bike has a flat tire, a dead battery, or a locked wheel. Also say whether it is upright and easy to reach. We will review the details before sending help. You do not need to risk riding a bike that feels unsafe.
The price depends on how far the bike must go, where it is parked, and the equipment needed. Towstar lists a motorcycle towing base range on its service page, but added distance, fuel charges, and tax may change the total. Our motorbike towing cost guide explains common fee items. Call with both addresses for a current quote.
A properly loaded flatbed is a common way to move a motorcycle because both wheels can stay off the road. The key is a careful loading plan, suitable wheel support, and straps placed on safe points. Bike shape and added parts also matter. Read our flatbed versus trailer guide to understand the main differences. No towing method can promise zero risk.
Possibly, but the truck needs safe access. Tell us the garage height, ramp angle, gate code rules, and where the bike sits. A large flatbed might not enter a low parkade, so the driver may need another pickup plan. Do not try to move a damaged motorcycle up a steep ramp alone. We will talk through the access limits before arranging the tow.
