Bike Shifting in Sunkadakatte
Self built houses in Sunkadakatte keep their leftovers: tiles, cement bags, rods, and a compound floor scattered with nails and wire ends. A bike pushed through that picks up a puncture before it reaches the carrier. Sweep the path from the bike to the gate the evening before, and the move starts on four good tyres.

Bike Shifting in Sunkadakatte, Bangalore
Many families in Sunkadakatte built their own houses, a floor at a time, over years. The building leftovers stay. A stack of bricks behind the shed, a few bags of cement, rods in a corner, tiles kept in case one cracks. And on the ground, in the cracks between paving stones and along the compound wall, the small things: nails, screws, offcuts of binding wire, shards of tile, broken glass from a window that was replaced.
Riders here learn to avoid the worst of it. But on moving day, the bike is pushed along a different line, around the carrier, past a stack of household boxes, and the tyres find the nail. A slow puncture discovered at the far end is annoying. A fast one halfway up the carrier ramp, with the bike suddenly lurching, is how bikes get dropped.
Glass is the worst of it. Window panes replaced during the build often leave slivers in the soil along the wall, invisible until the sun catches them. Bike tyres pick these up as easily as nails, and the crew's shoes do too. If a window was ever replaced on your side of the house, give that stretch of ground an extra look.
Cement dust is the other problem. It settles on everything parked near a building site. On a bike, it sits on the tank, the seat and the panels. Wiped with a dry cloth, it scratches like sandpaper. Strapped at the frame with dust underneath, the straps rub it in.
So prepare the path and the bike. The evening before, sweep a clear line a metre wide from the parked bike out to the gate, and then go over it with a magnet if you have one, or by eye, for nails and wire. Move any bricks or rods that stick out into the path. Then rinse the bike with plenty of water, not a dry cloth, to float the dust off. Let it dry. Pay attention to the chain and the brake discs, which collect fine dust in a gritty paste; a gentle rinse there and a little chain lube afterwards is enough.
Rods and pipes deserve a special look. A length of steel rod lying across the path, or sticking out from a stack at shin height, is easy to miss in morning light and can catch a crew member's foot or a bike's footrest. Lay any long pieces flat along the wall, well clear of the line the bike will take. If a stack of bricks leans, restack it lower.
Check the tyres too. If there's already a nail in one, get it fixed before the move. Our crew will look as well, but you know the bike.
The Sunkadakatte packers page explains what to do with leftover building material. This page is about getting the bike through it without a puncture.
Scooter and Scooty Shifting in Sunkadakatte
Scooter and scooty shifting from a self built house compound is where punctures are most likely, because scooter tyres are small and often tubeless, and a nail can sit in the tread unnoticed. Check both tyres the evening before, sweep the path, and rinse the dust off.
EV Scooter Shifting in Sunkadakatte
Electric scooters are often parked near the house's single socket, which may be in the corner where the building material is stacked. Clear the path from there. Tell us the brand and battery arrangement during booking.
Two Wheeler Transport from Sunkadakatte to Other Cities
Self built houses sometimes empty out when a family moves to another city. Bike transport for that leaves from the same compound, so the path still needs sweeping. The kilometre rate is set for your corridor, and two wheeler transport on a long run deserves a tyre check before it leaves.

Getting Your Bike Ready in Sunkadakatte
The evening before, sweep a clear metre wide path from the bike to the gate. Look for nails, screws, wire and glass.
Move bricks, rods or tiles that stick out into the path. Leftover tiles are sharp along their edges; stack them face to face against the wall rather than leaving them loose on the ground.
Rinse the bike with water to remove cement dust. Don't wipe it dry with a cloth. Let it air dry overnight under the porch, so it is clean and dry for the photographs in the morning.
Check both tyres for nails. Fix any puncture before the move.
Lay long rods and pipes flat along the wall, out of the bike's line, so nobody trips while pushing.
Moving the whole household too? Our packers and movers in Sunkadakatte page covers the house move, and a bike can travel on the same vehicle.

Before Your Bike Is Collected in Sunkadakatte
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.
