Motorcycle shipping
Bikes ship strapped down in enclosed trailers, on open carriers with wheel chocks, or crated. Carriers need the year, make and model, whether it runs, and whether it's a trike, has a sidecar or has custom parts, since each changes how it is secured.
- Usually priced on
- Distance, bike size, enclosed or open

Motorcycle questions
Should I crate my motorcycle?
Crating protects the bike but adds cost and work at both ends. Many riders ship uncrated in an enclosed trailer, strapped to wheel chocks. Ask carriers which they offer.
Can you ship a trike or a bike with a sidecar?
Yes. Mark it in the form; both are wider than a standard bike and need more room on the trailer.
Can I ship a motorcycle that doesn't run?
Yes. Turn off operable and say whether it rolls and the brakes work, so carriers bring the right help to load it.
What about ATVs and dirt bikes?
Dirt bikes ship here. ATVs, UTVs and snowmobiles have their own category with dimension fields that suit them better.
