Motorcycle Towing in Traralgon & the Latrobe Valley
Broken down bike? We tow motorcycles with proper chocks, soft tie-downs, and flatbed-only transport across the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland — all makes, all sizes.
Call (03) 4422 2135Towing a motorcycle is nothing like towing a car — and if it’s done with improvised equipment or by an inexperienced operator, the damage can be worse than the breakdown. Traralgon Towing Co. uses specialist motorcycle towing equipment: proper wheel chocks that hold the front wheel stable, soft fabric tie-down straps that won’t scratch bodywork or chrome, and flatbed-only transport so your bike travels completely off the road. We do not improvise.
We respond to motorcycle breakdowns across Traralgon, Morwell, Moe, Churchill, Sale, Bairnsdale, and the full Princes Highway and Princes Freeway corridor — including the popular touring routes through the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland. Call (03) 4422 2135 any time and we’ll dispatch to your location.
What’s Included
Specialist motorcycle towing — proper equipment, not improvised.
We never wheel-lift a motorcycle. Your bike travels on a flatbed tray, completely off the road, secured properly for the entire journey.
A front wheel chock locks your motorcycle upright and stable on the tray during loading and transit. No leaning against the side — the chock does the work.
We use fabric soft-loop tie-downs at the correct frame and suspension anchor points — never chains or hard hooks that can scratch chrome or damage bodywork.
Road bikes, sports bikes, cruisers, adventure bikes, scooters, trail bikes. Japanese, European, American. We’ve loaded them all.
How It Works
Your bike loaded safely, secured properly, delivered without drama.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my motorcycle need a flatbed instead of a wheel-lift tow?
Motorcycles can’t be wheel-lifted like a car — there’s no safe way to lift two wheels while the other two roll, because a bike only has two wheels total. Any legitimate motorcycle towing uses a flatbed with proper chocks and tie-downs. If someone quotes you a wheel-lift tow for a motorcycle, decline it.
Can you tow my large adventure bike or touring motorcycle?
Yes. Our flatbeds handle everything from lightweight scooters to large touring bikes like BMW GS-series, Harley-Davidsons, and Honda Goldwings. We use the appropriate chock and anchor-point setup for the wheelbase and weight of your specific bike.
Will the tie-downs damage my bike’s handlebars or bodywork?
Our soft tie-down straps have fabric loops specifically designed to avoid contact with painted surfaces, chrome, or handlebar grips. We also pad contact points where needed. We treat your bike the way you’d want it treated.
My bike fell over and can’t be ridden or rolled — can you still recover it?
Yes. If the bike can’t be pushed onto the flatbed, we can assist with careful manual lifting or use our winch to guide it onto the tray in a controlled way. We assess the bike’s condition on arrival and use the safest method for the situation.
How far will you tow a motorcycle?
Our primary coverage area is the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland corridor, but we can arrange longer-distance transport to Melbourne and other destinations. Call (03) 4422 2135 to discuss your situation and get a quote for the distance involved.
