Bike Shifting in Magadi
Nobody drives out to Magadi just to look at a scooter. So we ask you to film it instead, slowly, with the gate and the last bit of lane in the frame. A good two minute video decides which carrier comes, and whether it has to come once or twice.

Bike Shifting in Magadi, Bangalore
Out at Magadi the normal order of things is upside down. In the city a surveyor can pop round to a flat in the afternoon and look at a bike in its bay. Here that visit would cost a crew most of a working day, because they set out from the far side of Bangalore and our nearest branches are nowhere near this town. For a household we do come and see the house. For a single scooter or motorcycle, it makes no sense to burn a day on a look, and the honest answer is a video.
The video is not a formality. It is how we choose the vehicle. A scooty and a heavy touring bike want different straps and different ramps, and a lane that is tarred up to the gate takes a different carrier from a lane that turns to soft earth a hundred metres short. If the wrong one is sent, the trouble is larger than it would be in the city. A second vehicle is a long drive away, so a wrong guess is not a twenty minute fix, it is a rebooked day.
So here is what to film. Start with the whole bike, walking round it once, slowly, in daylight. Show both tyres and the chain side. Hold the camera still on the number plate, the odometer and any mark you already know about, a scuffed leg guard, a cracked mirror stalk. Say the model out loud as you go, it helps more than you would think. Then turn round and show where the bike stands, the width of the gate, any step at the compound, and the stretch of lane outside. Walk that lane to the nearest place a bigger vehicle could stop, keeping the phone steady, and end on the ground there.
Independent houses on proper plots are the norm in Magadi. Most of them load at ground level with no lift and no gate desk, which makes the carrier side simple once we know the lane. What varies is what sits around the bike. A scooter kept in a farm outbuilding among tools, feed sacks and stacked furniture needs a clear path before anyone can wheel it out, and the video shows us that too. If you can, clear the path and film it again.
When the clip arrives we come back with a written figure, and we say plainly if anything in it is unclear. We may ask for a second short video of one corner. What we will not do is quote from a blur and then revise at your gate. The figure holds unless the bike turns out to be different from the one in the film, and in that case you hear about it before the crew leaves Bangalore.
Because the crew travels out, most bike jobs here ride on a household load going the same way. A separate run for one scooter is costly for everyone, and where we can fit it with another job on the Magadi Road corridor we say so. A full house move out here has its own packers page for Magadi, and this page keeps to the two wheeler alone.
Scooter and Scooty Shifting in Magadi
Scooter shifting in Magadi tends to be about daily errands on town lanes, and a scooty here often carries a basket, a rear rack or a small top bag. Take those off if they unscrew easily and keep them with you, or show them on the video if they stay. Empty the boot and the glove pocket so nothing rolls about on the carrier.
For scooty shifting, the point is usually the same as the scooter, light weight and quick handling, and two people can steer it over a step. A heavier motorcycle is a different story, and the video tells us whether the lane suits the larger carrier.
EV Scooter Shifting in Magadi
An electric scooter from a Magadi house is welcome too. Do say on the call what the model is and whether the battery is one you lift out or one built in. If it charges from a socket in the verandah, switch off at the wall the night before and leave the lead coiled away from the bike. How the battery is handled and what the person receiving the scooter needs to have ready is agreed when you book, so there is no scrambling at the far end.
Two Wheeler Transport from Magadi to Other Cities
When the destination is another city altogether, the bike rides a carrier from your Magadi gate, priced by the kilometre for whichever vehicle band fits. Bengaluru is the usual first leg, with onward runs to places like Chennai, Hyderabad or Kochi quoted from the same video and the address you give us. The figure reaches you on paper before pickup. Days on the road we leave unstated, because weather and traffic decide them. Mention the landmark and a named contact at the far end, because a stranger looking for a house in an unfamiliar town loses time.
Where a household is already travelling the same way, the bike can often share that vehicle, starting from Rs 2,999.

Getting Your Bike Ready in Magadi
Film in the morning, when the light is even and the lane is clear. Low sun makes scratches look worse than they are.
Book three weeks ahead if you can. A Magadi job commits a crew and a vehicle for a whole day including the drive out, so there are fewer days on offer than in the city, and short notice is harder here than anywhere else we work.
Tell us about the bike's usual resting place. A scooter that lives in an outbuilding, a porch or under a tree may need a path cleared, a tarpaulin lifted or a stack of sacks moved, and it is far better to do that the evening before than to start the morning with a shifting job of your own.
Keep the keys, your RC copy and the insurance copy in one envelope by the door. The crew will photograph the bike before loading and hand you a copy of the condition note, so have a pen and be ready to read it.
And if anything about the bike is odd, say it in the video. A loose footrest, a mirror that droops, a scooter that stalls. We cannot fix any of it, but knowing beforehand changes how it is handled.
Moving the whole household too? Our packers and movers in Magadi page covers the house move, and a bike can travel on the same vehicle.

Before Your Bike Is Collected in Magadi
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 Magadi: Questions People Ask
Within the city the quote can be as low as Rs 2,500 or as high as Rs 5,500 once we have watched your video, and it comes in writing. A bike sharing a household vehicle begins at Rs 2,999. Longer journeys are charged per kilometre.
A visit would take a crew most of a day, since they drive out from Bangalore. A careful video tells us the same things about the bike and the lane, and the quote reaches you sooner.
Walk round it slowly once in daylight. Show the tyres, the chain side, the number plate, the odometer and any old marks. Then show the gate, the step and the lane outside.
Yes, for a scooty or scooter we usually can. If one corner is unclear we ask for a second short clip. The figure holds unless the bike turns out different from the film.
Yes. Say what the model is and whether the battery lifts out. Its handling, and what the receiver has to have ready, is settled at booking.
Yes. A carrier takes it to Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kochi and further, at a per kilometre rate for the vehicle band, written down before pickup.
Say so, and film the last stretch. Where a carrier cannot stand, the bike is walked to firmer ground and loaded there, and we plan that before we set out.
Because the next one is a long drive away. A wrong guess about the carrier turns into a second trip and a second day, which is why the video matters.
Three weeks is comfortable. A Magadi run takes a crew and vehicle out for a whole day, so fewer slots exist than in the city.
You, or a person you name when you book. Give us a working phone number for them, since the driver will ring on the way in.
Not at all, but clear a path first. Sacks, tools and stacked furniture get moved the evening before, and the video should show the cleared way to the door.
Often it can, upright and tied down well clear of the furniture. That tends to be the sensible choice out here, since a separate run for one bike is costly.
Let the tank drop close to reserve beforehand. Leftover petrol is tolerated, but emptying it out is unnecessary.
No. It is pushed across by hand and stood on the carrier, with the frame strapped and soft padding at each contact point.
Photocopies of RC, policy and some photo ID ride along in the envelope, while you carry the originals yourself. Mention it early if the RC was issued to a relative.
Yes, on a declared value that you state honestly. It appears in the written quote, so the cost is visible up front.
Starting or repairing is not something we take on. Provided the wheels turn, it can be loaded anyway, and it pays to have a garage you trust at the destination.
We keep bikes in Bangalore. The charge follows the model and the length of the wait, so it is worked out after a quick survey.
No, we move bikes and not clearance. Scrap collection is thinner out here, so arrange it well before the week of your move.
Yes, with the quote in writing beforehand and the GST invoice after the job.
Yes, and the same video habit works in reverse. Film the bike where it stands in the city, and tell us the Magadi address with a landmark.
Call +91 90908 28210, keep the video ready to send and tell us your model and date.
