How to prepare your motorcycle for shipping

Preparing your motorcycle for transport will help you avoid damages, hence avoiding the repair costs. Our precaution methods which we recommend to our customers include:

• Assessing the state of the motorcycle’s engine with the help of an expert.
• Removing the fluids in your bikes if they are either corrosive or highly flammable.
• Inflating the rear and front tires until they are filled with adequate pressure.
• Removing all security systems, for example, the GPS and alarm devices.
• Removing and shipping the motorbike accessories in safer boxes.
• Draining the gas tank. If the shipper will need to roll off the bike, leave the gas at a ¼ of the tank volume at most.
• Washing your motorbikes a few days before hauling and checking for damages.
• Documenting any defects you find on the bike.
• With a decent camera, take closeup images of your bike. The pictures should clearly show the dents and dings on the bike.

What to look for in a motorcycle shipping company

It is advisable to carry out due diligence before trusting any shipper with your motorcycle. You can vet around top five shippers in the USA and choose the best among these. Walk into their offices and ask them questions like:

• Do they have legit registration documents? Ask to check them out to confirm their legitimacy.
• Do they offer transit insurance coverage? Do not hire shippers that do not protect your motorcycle using a premium insurance policy.
• Are they approved by the BBB? What is their rating? To be assured of your bike’s safety, choose shippers with A+ ratings.
