Different methods we can use to ship your motorcycle
When shipping your bike, we may use the following methods:
- Shipping via road: Most common option for interstate shipping.
- Shipping via water: Best for destinations that have a port.
- Shipping via air: Best option when delivery is required as fast as possible. We do our best to negotiate for affordable air freight charges.
- Shipping via rail: Cheap but slower method of transportation.
You may opt to have your bike shipped in a wooden crate, open container or an enclosed container. We support requests to have bikes delivered via door-to-door or terminal-to-terminal services.
How to prepare your motorcycle for shipping
The preparation of your motorcycle includes the following activities:
- Having professionals to do maintenance on it.
- Washing your bike thoroughly.
- Disabling the alarm system.
- Checking the tire pressure.
- Checking the engine.
- Checking the fluid levels.
- In case you will be using the crated shipping option, you will have to disconnect the battery and drain the fluids.
The above-mentioned activities are the basic motorcycle preparation activities. In some cases, different motorcycle shipping companies may have their additional requirements for the preparation of a motorcycle for shipping. For instance, some movers may require that parts like the handlebars be removed. It is good to get this information from them and take action before handing your bike over to the shipping company.
