Safe And Reliable Massachusetts Motorcycle Shipping Services By A-1 Auto Transport

While Massachusetts is a smaller size, that doesn't mean that it isn't suitable for motorcyclists. Actually, above Boston, there are lots of farms, forests, and orchards and during the warmer seasons, Massachusetts can be a gorgeous place to cruise on a bike. Just make sure that you look into the motorcycle laws of the state before going for a ride.

Motorcycle shipment to Massachusetts can be done quite easily with the help of a reliable shipping company. Luckily, there are many dependable companies throughout the state to choose from. These companies will have several methods of motorcycle shipment to choose from and they all come at different rates.

The Different Methods of Motorcycle Shipment

When shipping to the state of Massachusetts, you will have several options made available to you depending on which shipping company you choose to go with. While all of these methods are safe as long as you purchase the shipping insurance available through most companies, some of them are better options than others.

Enclosed shipping is one of the safest forms of motorcycle shipment. The bike is placed in an enclosed container for shipment.
Open air shipment requires the bike to be placed on an open flatbed or trailer. This might cause damage to the bike if weather or road conditions are unfavorable.
Crated shipping is the safest form of shipment but the motorcycle will need to be drained of all fluids and the battery will need to be disconnected. The bike will then be placed on a wooden pallet and placed inside a crate.
Door to door shipping is when the company comes to retrieve the bike from a specific address and then drops it off at the address specified.
Terminal to terminal shipping is when the motorcycle is taken to a terminal for shipment, then picked up from another terminal. This can be inconvenient when the terminal isn't nearby.

All of the above are great options. It really a matter of preference and budget. Some companies don't offer all of the different methods of shipment listed. Therefore, consult with the shipping company of your choice about your options.

“A couple months ago, while on a vacation to Massachusetts, I finally found a car I was looking for. It took me over a year to find it, but after speaking to the seller and 20 minutes of negotiating, it was finally mine. Now, I just had to get it back home to New York. Easier said than done. Fortunately, after searching the web for an hour, I found A1 Auto Transport, a reputable company who seemed to be what I was looking for. Dealing with them was surprisingly easy. I spoke to Joe and got an estimate quite fast. I had a million questions, ranging from the reasonable, like “How much does it cost” to a few that pushed the limit, like “is the driver an alcoholic.” Joe was patient enough to ease my worries. One of his trucks was schedule to drop by Massachusetts in a couple of days, and it was there at the agreed upon time. I barraged the driver with a dozen more questions, to which he replied calmly, though a bit surprised. He took a spin around my brand new car, checked for any scratches and was surprised to not find any. I gave him a wink and told him to take special care of it. This he did. When I met him to pick the car up, it was exactly as I saw it when it boarded the truck. You have my gratitude!”

“I am super happy with my choice of A1 Auto Shipping. The other company I worked with was super difficult, though it did teach me a bit about the industry. Some brokers underbid by a lot, so they’ll get your contract, even if there are no carriers who will ever want to take on a job at such a price. Because of this, after signing the contract, they may leave you hanging endlessly. I had to get my car to Kentucky and had no time for pointless waiting. The other company asked me to pay $800 upfront. I didn’t know at the time this wasn’t standard practice. By paying upfront, I basically had no choice but to wait on them till a truck finally offered to take my car. A1 Auto Transport, for example, only asks for a deposit amounting to a fraction of the total cost when picking up your vehicle. You only pay the full sum after the job is done. The broker, whose name I won’t mention, was supposed to get a truck to my doorstep on the 5th of September. I put my order in 10 days prior, so there was plenty of time to find one. When I called them, they told me the 5th was actually the earliest estimate, and the actual pickup date could be quite long time away. After “accidentally” charging another $700 for my transportation, I was in tears. I had to move in less than a week, and I couldn’t afford to leave my car behind. So, I gave up on those guys and opted for A1 Auto Transport. I spoke with Joe and he got my car on a truck the following day. I am so grateful! The arrival time was estimated at 6-8 days, and it got to Kentucky on the 7th. This saved me a ton of money I would have had to spend on transport to search for an apartment. Joe called a day earlier to let me know of the time and place it would arrive. I asked if it could be delivered to another nearby location, and he was nice enough to do it. He was very helpful and straight forward. Thank you!”

“I love A1 Auto Transport! Last year, we left Pennsylvania for Hawaii on Vacation. We’re pretty comfortable people, so we found having to take the bus everywhere a huge pain. We wanted to do something different and take our car with us this time around. After a quick web search, we chose A1 Auto Transport as our go to company, a very wise decision if I may say so. They arranged for a truck to come pickup my car and even took care of the sea transport part of the equation. We told Joe when we wanted to go on vacation and for how long, and he planned the transport around it. He had his men pickup the car and send it to the port, from where it travelled by boat to the island. He timed everything just right. We arrived on Monday, and picked up the car on Monday afternoon. It’s safe to say it was the best month of our lives. Thank you A1 for making things so much easier! We returned at the end of summer, and Joe once again pulled through for us and got the car back to Pennsylvania in one piece. It was real simple to use their service and they’re worth every dollar. Highly recommend!”

“I moved to North Carolina recently and moved my family car with A1 Auto Transport. I told Joe he would find me at home after 5 pm and at work before that. I couldn’t afford to skip work to wait for the truck, and Joe was nice enough to work around my schedule. It took 3 days for the car to arrive. It was estimated to get there between 1 pm and 3 pm, and it arrived at around 1:30. Joe called beforehand to confirm I still needed it delivered at the office. I took a half hour break and was glad to see the car was not scratched during transport. Many thanks to the A1 team!”

“I wish I’d known about A1 Auto Transport a year ago when my sister and her fam had to move to Alaska. They tried to get their cars transported, only to get ripped off by some other car relocation company that left her Cruze in a mess and charged her exorbitantly. You won’t run into any of those hassles with A1 Auto Transport, thank god. And the people who helped me all the way… I hope their whole team and their higher ups are all reading this review, so they can know how wonderful the service I got from them was. Very reliable people. They quoted me a reasonable price. And for such awesome customer service, I’d be glad to pay these guys more just for existing.”
