Different methods we can use to ship your motorcycle
Domestic motorcycle shipping
- Open-air transport
This is the cheapest and fastest way to transport your motorcycle. Your bike will be hauled onto an open trailer and fastened to ensure it doesn’t roll off when the trailer starts moving. It will be safe since it will be handled by only our best drivers who know how to tactfully avoid all the perils of the road.
- Enclosed transport
Enclosed transport is safer than open-air transport and is ideal for rare and sporty motorcycles. This shipping method is only applied as per the personal preference of the customer who wants to secure their motorbike that is valued at, say, over $20,000.
- Door to door transport
We provide this service through pre-arranged appointments with our customers to safely escort their motorbikes from a departure point to the doorstep at the destination.
- Terminal to terminal transport
You will transport your motorbike to the nearest transportation hub in Geneva where we will pick it up and have it delivered to the next hub at the delivery destination.
- Crated transport
Wooden crates are perfect for shipping new motorbikes with empty fuel tanks or expensive motorbikes that need to be kept away from the eyes of the public.
International motorcycle shipping
- RORO (roll-on roll-off)
We use skids or in-built machines designed to carry wheeled cargo, such as your motorbike, onto and off a ship.
- Container
We use truck-size intermodal containers to safely transport your motorbike.
- Port to port
This shipping method in sea freight transportation commences at the point of loading and stops at the destination port.

How to prepare your motorcycle for shipping
- Know the basics
Do not start preparing the motorbike before you to know what is required of you. Call the shipping company and ask for instructions on how to prepare the motorbike. Most will gladly give them to you or link you to their site.
- Clean your bike
Wash off all the dirt and grime from the motorbike and pay special attention to the layers of crud on the underside. Do not overlook this process as a spic and span look will appeal to the handlers who will take extra care of it.
- On the fuel
The motorbike’s fuel is both flammable and explosive. It can be easily charged when the motorcycle is being loaded into a container due to the friction. That is why many shipping companies will insist that you drain out all the fuel or leave it at less than 1/4 full before you hand it over for shipping
- Final Instructions
A digital camera will come in handy when heading to the shipping company’s location. Capture the condition of the motorbike from different angles so that you can be able to tell if anyone tampered with your motorbike.
What to look for in a motorcycle shipping company
- Experience and skills they have in shipping different motorcycle brands safely and efficiently.
- A reliable motorcycle shipper who will readily provide you with references from their past customers.
