Bike Shifting in Bommasandra
When a Bommasandra house is coming down, the bike parked in its compound has a deadline that nobody else sets for it. The salvage crew strips the doors, the contractor brings machines, and a scooter left in the yard becomes the thing everyone is working around.

Bike Shifting in Bommasandra, Bangalore
A house that is going to be demolished is emptied in stages, and the bike tends to be forgotten in every one of them. The family is busy deciding about the furniture, the old steel almirah, the doors their father hung and the grille a relative made. The scooter or the motorcycle sits in the porch or the yard as it has for years, and nobody writes it on the list because it is not household goods and it is not a fitting. Then the salvage carpenter arrives.
The order of work matters here. Salvage comes first. Doors, frames and window grilles come out, fittings are unscrewed, the electrician takes down whatever the family wants to keep, and all of this is done by people walking back and forth across the compound with planks, tools and offcuts. Only after that does the contractor bring the machine. A bike standing in the middle of it is in the way of everybody, and it is at risk from everything: a falling plank, a dropped nail, a wet sack of rubble, a careless reverse. Nobody is being careless on purpose, it is just a site, and sites are not kind to anything parked on them.
So the bike should leave before the first salvage day, not after it. That sounds obvious when you write it down. In practice it means asking the contractor, or whoever is fixing the dates, for the actual start and working back from it. Choose a pickup two or three days earlier if you can, and have the bike ready: tank run down toward reserve, seat box emptied, key in your hand, steering lock released.
The second half of the problem is where it goes. A family whose house is coming down is usually in a rented flat for a year or two while the new building is made, and the rented flat may have no parking at all. Think about that before the day. A bike that arrives at a gate with no bay is a problem of its own. If the answer is not clear, we can keep it in storage in Bangalore and deliver to the temporary address when a space is found, priced after a survey.
Take photographs, of the house, yes, but of the bike too. A demolition yard is dusty and the paint will show it. A picture of the bike in its porch on the last clear day, with the plate and any old scratches visible, is useful when you read the condition note we write at pickup and compare it with what arrives.
Nobody moves in a hurry out of a house that will not exist next month, so allow more time than the work looks like it needs, and if a neighbour comes by to watch the old place go, let the conversation run. The crew has seen it before. Decisions take longer, there are neighbours to say goodbye to and somebody always has a last look round the terrace. We plan the pickup with a margin for that.
Where a full household is going too, the separate packers and movers page on Bommasandra handles that move, and the bike can take a place on the same truck. The rest here is about the two wheeler.
Scooter and Scooty Shifting in Bommasandra
Scooters and scooties turn up most often in Bommasandra homes, kept in a porch or beside the gate. Clear the seat box and the floor board, and pull the key off the ring the whole family shares. A scooty that has sat for a few months under a sheet of plastic may have a tired battery and soft tyres, which is worth mentioning when you book.
If it is a motorcycle, the pickup is the same and the local price is the same. A heavier bike is simply given more hands.
EV Scooter Shifting in Bommasandra
An electric scooter at a house about to come down raises a particular question, which is the charging cable and the wall socket that will disappear with the wiring. The socket is gone once the electrician strips the house, so charge the scooter properly before the salvage date and carry the charger yourself. On the vehicle the scooter stays upright, and its battery gets careful handling. Give the make, and say if the pack can be lifted out. The receiver's requirements come up at booking.
Two Wheeler Transport from Bommasandra to Other Cities
Some Bommasandra families treat a demolition as the moment to send the bike to a relative in another city instead of paying for a parking space through the rebuild. Carrier rates follow the kilometres and the size of vehicle, and you get the quote in writing before pickup. No number of days is promised, since the timing is something we fix with you on booking. Decide early if the bike is coming back, because a return run is a separate booking.

Getting Your Bike Ready in Bommasandra
Ask whoever is running the demolition for the first salvage date and work back from it. The bike goes out before that date, preferably with two or three days in hand.
Do not leave the bike in the yard overnight once salvage has begun. Nails, glass and stray planks puncture tyres and scratch paint in a way that no careful owner would allow on their own street.
Decide where it will live before the crew comes. A rented flat may have no bay and a friend's porch may not suit a long stay. If there is no place, storage with us in Bangalore fills the gap.
Photograph the bike in its porch with the plate in frame. Do the same for the house while you are at it, and every room, because nobody regrets having those pictures.
Take the spare key, charger and any papers out of the house the moment the salvage people turn up. Things that stay inside a half stripped house have a way of ending up in a skip.
And tell the neighbours the bike is leaving, particularly the ones who park along the wall. A lane that has been shared for years tends to have an unspoken order about who stands where, and a carrier that turns up unannounced at the end of it is an easy way to cause friction on the last week of a long stay in the street.

Before Your Bike Is Collected in Bommasandra
Fuel
Ride the tank down to reserve in the days before collection. A small amount is fine; a full tank is not wanted on a loaded vehicle.
Papers
Photocopies of the RC, the insurance policy and your photo ID travel with the bike. Keep the originals, especially the RC, with you. If the RC is not in your name, mention it when you book.
Condition record
Photograph the bike from every side and at the odometer. The crew also notes its condition at pickup, and you keep a copy of that note.
Insurance
Transit insurance is available on a value you declare. Keep the bike's own motor insurance valid for the journey as well.
At delivery
Check the bike against the pickup note and your photographs before signing, and point out anything new while the crew is still there.
Handover
If someone else will hand over or receive the bike, tell us who when you book, and we will confirm what they need to have with them.
What a Bike Move Does Not Include
- We do not ride your bike to the new address. It travels on a vehicle, standing upright and strapped at the frame.
- Ride the tank down to reserve before pickup. A near empty tank is safer on a loaded vehicle.
- We do not repair, service or start a bike that will not start. Tell us at booking so it is loaded the right way.
- Helmets, jackets and tools travel in a carton or with you, never strapped to the bike.
- RC transfer, address change and re-registration in a new state are yours to do, or an agent's.
Bike Shifting in Bommasandra: Questions People Ask
Nothing about a demolition changes the rate. Kept inside Bangalore, the bike costs Rs 2,500 at the light end and Rs 5,500 at the heavy end, while a place on the household truck begins at Rs 2,999. Once it leaves the city we charge for distance by vehicle size, settled on paper beforehand.
Ahead of the first salvage day. Ask whoever runs the demolition for the real start, then book the bike two or three days before it.
Planks, tools and offcuts go back and forth all day, and a scooter in the yard gets scratched, punctured or knocked. Elsewhere it is simply safer.
Inside the city a scooty lands on the same local scale as a motorcycle, light jobs at Rs 2,500 and heavy ones at Rs 5,500. A short hop does not pay less for being short.
Yes. Charge it fully while the wiring still works and keep the charger with you. Tell us the make, and what the receiver must show is settled at booking.
It goes with everything else, so the scooter should be charged before that day. Also work out where it will be plugged in at the rented place.
It could, travelling on a carrier and charged for each kilometre. Tell us if it is coming back afterwards, because a return run is booked on its own.
The kilometres and the vehicle size decide it, and the amount is set out in writing before pickup. A count of days on the road is never given.
With us, if you like. There is room in Bangalore, a survey puts a price on it, and we deliver to you when a bay turns up.
It helps a lot. One taken in the porch with the plate visible gives you something to hold the pickup note against.
Ring us and the slot can usually be shifted. The earlier you call, the easier the carrier is to rearrange.
No. A house being left for good takes longer than the work suggests, so we leave extra time in the pickup.
Copies of your RC, your insurance and an ID. The originals never leave your hands.
Mention it when booking. A relative may have to do the handing over, and what they show is agreed in advance.
Near reserve by the day of collection, which you get by riding it down over a few days. A little left over is harmless.
Often, which tends to cost less. It stands in straps and padding, well clear of the heavy items.
When the destination is shared, yes. A single vehicle takes the pair at one joint price.
Take both out of the house at once. Small items left in a half stripped building have a way of turning up in a skip.
Not if the wheels turn, since the crew wheels and loads it without starting it. Mention the tyres and battery when you book.
The crew wheels it out to whichever spot the carrier can reach. Describe the lane outside when you book.
Yes, with a copy handed to you. Keep your own photographs next to it.
Anyone you name at booking whose phone is switched on. Their paperwork is something we work out with you over the phone.
Put the pickup note beside the bike right there and show the mark, photographs ready. Transit cover is based on the declared value.
