Different methods we can use to ship your motorcycle

• Open-air transport

Our open-air transport carriers have the capability of carrying up to 8 motorbikes at the same time. It is a popular way to transport motorbikes as it is cheap and convenient for city to city moves.

• Enclosed transport

You can take advantage of this method when transporting high-end or classic motorcycle models. We use an enclosed truck to protect the motorbike from harsh weather conditions and the damaging elements of the road such as hanging branches.

• Door to door transport

So long as your place is accessible by one of our trucks, we can come right at your home and collect the motorbike for shipping without involving you in the transportation hustle until the time it gets to its final destination.

• Terminal to terminal transport

If you live close to a depot, terminal or one of our shipping yards, we can move your motorbike from Gurnee to the corresponding shipping yard or terminal at the shipping destination and vice versa. However, Gurnee is the only major Chicago suburb that is not graced by the Metra service. That means rail depots are not suitable options for this method.

• Crated Transport

As the name suggests, we will pack your motorbike in a wooden crate and load it onto a truck, ship or aircraft for transportation.

Gurnee, IL Motorcycle Shipping Pricing & Time To Ship

Examples

*Prices and times are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and what type of vehicle you are shipping.

How to prepare your motorcycle for shipping

• No personal items

Think of it this way, your motorbike will be on the road for hours. The drivers will ensure that the motorbike is intact but there is no guarantee that they will also be keen on your accessories, gloves or helmets. It is safer and wiser if you remove them before handing over the bike to the motorcycle shipping company.

• Fuel tank

If you are going for crated transportation method, the shipping company will need the fuel tank to be drained out as the motorbike will not be ridden when being transported. However, other forms of shipment need the fuel tank to be less than a quarter full for the motorbike to be ridden on or off a shipping vehicle or ship.

• Leaking fluids

Leaking fluids from the motorbike are flammable and can explode while being transported. Fix all the fluid leaks.

• Document preparation

Your motorbike will be accompanied by important documents to show where it is going, where it is from and what type of bike it is. These documents will be a CMR note for road transportation, Bill of Lading for sea shipments and Air Way Bill for air freight services. Ensure that the shipping company forwards all the relevant documents to you before the bike is picked up.

What to look for in a motorcycle shipping company

• Technology

Does the shipping company use modern technology to handle your motorcycle? New advancements on motorcycles are coming up every day and if you own a modern motorcycle, you would want to work with a new age company. Ensure that they have a temperature controlled container, modern soft ties, online tracking systems and skids.

• Care

What do the customer reviews say about the motorcycle shipping company? If many people are in support of the services they provide and they register little to no complaints of damaged motorcycles, then that is the company you want to go with.

• Fleet Network

Go for a company with shipping yards covering the whole of USA.
