How to prepare your motorcycle for shipping

Begin by cleaning the exterior and interior parts. After washing, the damaged or defective parts are more noticeable.
The discovered damages should not go unrecorded or else you will have a hard time trying to convince your shipper of the pre-shipping conditions.
To add on the evidence of the pre-shipping state of the motorbike, take several pictures of the bike ahead of shipping. All angles should appear on the images.
Lower levels of the gas to prevent fumes filling up the shipping vessels. Fumes burst into flame in the presence of heat. A ¼ tank of gas is advisable.
There are other fluids used by motorbikes and are either inflammable or corrosive. It is advisable to withdraw them before calling the shipper.
Before loading the bikes into the trucks, ensure the battery is fully charged.

What to look for in a motorcycle shipping company

Protect your motorcycle by ensuring that the shipping service you are using has a motor carrier indemnity. Find out also the types of risks they cover. There are many metrics to determine which risk is prone in the area you are shipping to and from.

Satisfied Customers

“I though taking my car to Connecticut was going to be the most difficult part of the move. And until I found Joe and A1 Auto Transport, it was. Fortunately, from that point forward it was handled flawlessly. A month ago, I tried a website which promised to find me a company with great rates. More than a dozen carriers took me up on the offer, so I chose the one that was the cheapest. Instead of showing up, he called on the shipping date to tell me his truck is getting repairs. I waited 2 more days before finally cancelling the order. I lost a week pointlessly, and my family and I were supposed to move 2 weeks later. I searched some more and chose a broker with a seemingly good reputation. After a week of waiting, I finally stopped waiting for him to find me a truck. Finally, a work colleague to which I was complaining about the situation, recommended A1 Auto Transport. He’d used them in the past and recommended them with a ‘thumbs up.’ I called Joe that same day. He told me it was peak shipping season. Some companies, instead of telling you they’re full, may choose to simply let you wait in case one of their other clients cancels. Fortunately, he had a truck available, and he sent it my way immediately. In a couple of hours, my car was on its way to Connecticut.”

“Mark, I'm gratified when companies take customer service seriously. Please feel free to share the important fact that my experience with A-1 was not particularly extraordinary'and that is the whole point! Things happened the way they were supposed to happen, no muss, no fuss. A friendly driver and courteous pick up folks. Picked up right on schedule. The ability to track my car was great because I could 'guesstimate' when it might arrive and plan accordingly. Now then, you should also know that I chose A-1 because of E-Bay. Never underestimate the power of positive feedback. I did not purchase the service through E-Bay, but I darn sure checked out your feedbacks! And they were very good. In addition, your web site is very user friendly and made my reservations a breeze. Plus, my car arrived in perfect condition. You and your entire staff are to be commended for making my experience routine. That's the goal! Thanks again everybody. Bob C. - Greenville, South Carolina”

“It’s been a few months now since I’ve moved to Florida from Illinois after my career took a nice turn. I had to relocate for a new job, and let me tell you, moving isn’t my favourite thing in the world. All the planning and packing and calling people up to help you move a mountain of personal stuff across states have me doubting my capacity as an adult to handle pressure and endure stress. I don’t think anyone like me with a busy enough life juggling university and a demanding career would ever say moving is an exciting activity. That’s why I’ll be forever thankful to A1 Auto Transport for making my life a hell of a lot easier during the move. I’d never had to worry about rearranging my schedule because of some hang-ups or delays, or getting screwed over for a costly service that damaged both my pocket and my car. It made me think of all those horror stories of people who ran into some bad luck with transporters damaging their most prized possessions after waiting for days on end with hundreds of dollars wasted. I felt really relieved that I didn’t become one of those people when I opted to go with A1 Auto Transport. Along with relocating to Florida for a cool job offer, working with A1 was probably one of the best decisions I’ve made.”

“Nicole: Our experience with A-1 Auto Transport could not have gone more smoothly. To make things even better, the car shipping quote you gave was cheaper than all other price quotes I received. Thanks for the great customer service and quick vehicle shipping! The communication via email was very helpful. We received immediate feedback when we had questions. We changed our pick-up location just 2 days before the shipment, and the change did not affect the degree of professionalism we received; but, rather, the change was implemented smoothly and acknowledged by email. We did not use the GPS tracking service only because we were on the road at the same time our vehicle shipment was on the road. We would have used it otherwise. Yes, we would use your service again and will highly recommend your company to others. Sincerely, Kimberly”

“Thank you Joe and the A1 Auto Transport team! It was a satisfying, honest and professional experience. The car was picked up on time and delivered to South Carolina as promised. They didn’t charge extra either. Joe made sure I was informed throughout the transport and explained the entire process, so I knew what to expect. The driver brought the car to my home, encouraged me to inspect it, and asked for payment only after. He called a day before to let me know he’d arrive, and also a couple hours earlier, so I’d be prepared. I had no problem with the drop off location, since it was in front of my home. I didn’t have to pay a deposit until the truck actually picked up my car. I was also informed of it beforehand. I’ve heard stories of companies asking for a deposit before picking your car, so they may leave with your money without ever showing up. Not the case with A1. I received another call from Joe after receiving my car to ask if I was satisfied with the service. Yes, yes and yes!! Thank you Joe for an awesome delivery!”

Thank you Joe and the A1 Auto Transport team!
