Different methods we can use to ship your motorcycle
- Open-air transport
We will fasten your motorbike on a flatbed and ship it in an open truck. You won’t have to worry about additional costs of securing your motorbike as in other transportation methods.
- Enclosed transport
If you own a rare or expensive motorbike, we can ship it via an enclosed carrier to protect it from road hazards and inclement weather.
- Door to door transport
The term ‘door to door’, in some cases, is not quite literal as we may face setbacks that hinder our trucks from getting right at your door. However, we will get close enough to your specific location as we possibly can for your convenience.
- Terminal to terminal transport
You could pick out a pick-up and drop-off destination at a convenient storage facility (terminal/depot) where our drivers will pick and leave your motorbike respectively.
- Crated transport
Your motorcycle will be wheeled into a wooden crate then we will use strong straps to secure the motorcycle in place. We will ensure that the motorbike is not leaning at an angle nor has a chance of slipping off before we close up the crate.
