Different methods we can use to ship your motorcycle

We use trucks with 4 sides and a roof to provide extra protection to the motorbike.

Regardless of whether you would like your motorcycle delivered to your doorstep or you would like a specific neighbour to receive your shipment, our swift delivery system can make it happen for you.

• Terminal to terminal transport

We will ship the motorcycle from a central location in Fox Lake to an intermediate location at the shipping destination.

Your motorcycle will be transported safely on a wooden crate.

International motorcycle shipping

• RORO (roll-on roll-off)

Your motorbike will be rolled onto a vessel for shipment and rolled off once it arrives at its destination. Motorcycles shipped via RoRo are stashed in dry under-deck compartments that are exposed to elements of the sea. Depending on the point of departure and destination, this is the least expensive shipping method and often the quickest.

• Container

A shipping container can typically withstand handling, storage and shipment. That makes it suitable for transporting multiple motorcycles overseas.

• Port to port

We can move your motorbike from one port to the next as it awaits inland transportation or your collection.
