Challenges with Motorcycle Shipping

Complexity of Loading and Unloading

  • Motorcycles require specialized equipment and care during loading and unloading.
  • Fewer carriers are equipped for motorcycle transport, which can result in higher costs than one might expect, relative to the size and weight of the vehicle.

Enclosed Transport Only

  • ATP uses only enclosed trailers for motorcycle transport, providing protection from weather, debris, and road hazards.
  • While this method ensures your bike’s pristine condition, it is more expensive than open carrier options.

Limited Availability of Carriers

  • The need for specialized handling reduces the number of carriers willing to transport motorcycles.
  • Demand for motorcycle shipping spikes during major events like Sturgis and Daytona Bike Week, further limiting availability and increasing costs.

Testimonials

Paul Koether

I transport my car every winter from Texas to Florida and back. This year is the first time it has been painless. Auto Transport did everything as promised. Mike Surgen and his driver did a great job. I plan to be a repeat customer. Not the cheapest but the best. Avoid "bargains" in auto transport.

Scott Findley

Could not have been happier with the delivery of my classic Mustang. Easy engagement and setup, great communication and delivery. Transport driver was courteous, no problems at all. Thanks for making it easy.

Keith & Debbie

Had a great experience with ATP. They were able to ship my bike in 2 days from Wisconsin to Virginia when other companies said it would take 20-28 days and they did it at a lower price. ATP was in constant communication with me via phone, email, and texting. I absolutely will use ATP for all future transportation needs. I highly recommend them.

FAQ

The time it takes to transport your vehicle varies based on several factors including total miles traveled. It can range from 1-2 days for short-haul transport and up to 7-10 days for cross-country transports. Once a truck has been assigned we will provide the actual pickup day and time along with an estimated delivery date. As we get closer to the day of delivery we will communicate the actual drop time window.

Yes, we can guarantee a specific pickup and/or delivery date. This guarantee will require additional fees to ensure the required dates are met. The majority of our transports are picked up and delivered in the window of time that our customers are willing to accept. However, keep in mind that picking up the vehicle does not necessarily mean it will be starting its journey that same day.

You may either pay a deposit before pickup by major credit card (3-4% processing fee depending on card type) and pay the remaining balance Cash On Delivery (COD) to the driver upon delivery or pay the full amount prior to delivery. Keep in mind if you are planning to pay COD, it must be done by cash, money order, or cashier’s check.
