Motorbike Recovery Ballymena: What the Job Needs
Car Tow NI, a Belfast-based vehicle recovery company, covers motorbike recovery across Ballymena and the rest of Northern Ireland. A motorbike needs a flat deck, a front wheel chock and soft straps, so say it is a bike when you ring and the right truck comes out.
How is a motorbike recovered safely?
Moving a bike is towing in Bangor nothing like moving a car. Fairings scratch, and the strapping points are not where you would expect. Soft straps, a front wheel chock and a flat deck are what the job needs.
Mention that it is a motorbike when you call, so the correct equipment comes out. Mention the size as well, since a tourer and a small commuter bike load differently.
What is the cheapest option for motorbike breakdown cover?
That depends entirely on how you ride, and a policy priced for a daily commuter is not the one a summer rider needs. Look at the current products and weigh the yearly cost against simply paying for the one recovery you may never need.
What about breakdowns on country roads?
Rural roads are harder to pin down than a main route. A phone map will give you a pin or a set of coordinates, and that is gold. Otherwise name the last junction you passed and the direction you were heading.
Narrow lanes change the job as well. A long flat deck cannot always turn where a smaller truck can. Say if the road is single track or the entrance is tight, and the right truck is sent first time.
What is the cheapest way to tow a car?
Have it recovered once, by a local firm, straight to where it is actually going. Moving a car twice is what makes it expensive. Ring ahead to check the garage will take it, because a closed forecourt in Ballymena means a second journey.
What if the car will not make it to the garage?
It does not have to break down in traffic to need recovery. An MOT booking, a failed test, or a part that has not arrived yet: each one is a simple collection. Recovery is not only for emergencies.
A move arranged in advance is the least stressful version of this. Arrange a time that suits and the car is collected and dropped off. Car Tow NI handles planned moves around Ballymena as well as breakdowns.
