But, if you\u2019re planning a big move, or buying a new bike, it\u2019s not always the best option to ride it all the way home \u2014 especially if there are several hundred or thousand miles to your destination. While lighter than a car, it\u2019s also not an easy feat to get a motorcycle on the back of a truck. That may make you wonder what kind of motorcycle shipping cost you might be facing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is where motorcycle shipping comes in handy. It\u2019s an easy way to ensure your bike gets from point A to point B in a timely, cost-effective, and stress-free manner. Sometimes it\u2019s just best to leave the logistics to the pros!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So, what contributes to the <a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/motorcycle-transportation\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">motorcycle shipping<\/a> cost? The following is a breakdown to help you make the best decision based on the specifics of your hog.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Much Does Motorcycle Shipping Cost?<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Cost to Ship a Motorcycle Per Mile<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A primary part of calculating the motorcycle shipping cost is the distance to the destination. It\u2019s common for motorcycle shipping companies to charge a per-mile rate, ranging from $0.30 to $0.75 per mile. The further the distance, the more it will cost.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Cost to Ship Within Your State<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you\u2019re moving within your state, the motorcycle shipping cost will be rather low. For example, transports under 1,000 miles typically costs between $180 to $300.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Cost to Ship to Another State<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On the other hand, a trip that is twice as long \u2014 1000+ miles \u2014 can cost twice as much. Longer moves can range from $350 to $700+.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Cost to Ship From the Dealership or Workshop<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/blog\/cost-to-ship-a-motorcycle\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">cost to ship a motorcycle<\/a> from a dealership or workshop will depend on several factors. Here are a few things you\u2019ll need to know to determine the motorcycle shipping cost:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Is the car in running condition?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How far is the dealership\/workshop from the destination?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How soon do you need the motorcycle in your possession?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Does the shipping company offer door-to-door transport?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Cost to Ship a Motorcycle to Hawaii and Alaska<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While motorcycle transport via trucks and trailers are most common, and cost-effective, there are two of the 50 states where this isn\u2019t possible. You guessed it \u2014 Hawaii and Alaska. If you\u2019re shipping your motorcycle over the open ocean there are two choices: air <a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/blog\/what-weight-is-considered-freight\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">freight<\/a> and sea freight.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Sea Freight<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Motorcycles can be delivered on a specialized sea vessel that is used for hauling motor vehicles like cars and motorcycles. Your bike can be loaded up with a type of shipping called roll-on\/roll-off (RO\/RO), or in a shipping container. RO\/RO\u00a0 is much like a parking lot floating through the ocean \u2014 the bike is driven on, held by a rack and tie downs, and then driven off at the location. When your bike is transported in a shipping container, it&#8217;s enclosed and secured inside 4 sturdy walls.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">RO\/RO is the cheapest shipping option on a sea vessel. Shipping in a sea container is typically more expensive, but if you share the space inside with other bikes, this will reduce the cost. Both options are priced based on volume \u2014 the calculation of length, width and height.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although the most cost-effective option, it\u2019s best to choose shipping by boat if you are flexible on the arrival date of your bike. Sea shipping vessels are notorious for having delays, sometimes by a few days or a week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Air Freight<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Delivering your motorcycle by plane is an option for expedited shipping to bridge the gaps in over-sea shipping. It is quick, and delays are often far shorter (usually only spanning a few hours or a day). The largest downside is the cost of shipping. It can be very expensive because your bike must be crated and there is limited space on the plane.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Cost of Open Transport Vs. Enclosed Transport<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The following are the two main <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/blog\/best-motorcycle-trailers\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">types of trailers used to haul motorcycles<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Each has a different price point that will influence the total motorcycle shipping cost.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Open Transport<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you choose to use an <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">open motorcycle transport option, this means your bike will be secured onto an uncovered trailer. The benefits of open transport include being affordable, easy to use, and versatile. Open transport trailers come in a variety of sizes and styles. The main downside of open transport is that it leaves your bike vulnerable to the elements. Debris, dirt, and grime are kicked up from the road while en route, and adverse weather conditions may call for snow or rain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another fear for those who choose open transport is movement of the bike en route, particularly on wide turns and rough terrain. These concerns can be alleviated by taking<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/blog\/how-to-protect-motorcycle-in-an-open-trailer\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> extra precautions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and ensuring the bike is secured correctly. Open transport is a popular option for motorcycle shipping, and when done safely is a great way to save.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Enclosed Transport<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Enclosed transport is the opposite of open transport \u2014 the motorcycle is enclosed by four walls during transportation. Though it comes at a higher motorcycle shipping cost, it also has several benefits. This option is appealing because it provides a more secure mode of transport. Your motorcycle will be protected from the elements and out of sight, reducing the risk of theft in the event your transporter needs to make a stop or stay overnight on the trip. You can also store detachable and breakable parts of your motorcycle safely inside the enclosed trailer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Factors Affect Motorcycle Shipping Costs?<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><b>Distance to Travel<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As exemplified above, the distance your motorcycle needs to be transported will heavily affect the motorcycle shipping cost.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Size and Weight<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Motorcycle size doesn\u2019t vary as much as cars. Obviously a truck like a Ford Raptor takes up way more space than a compact car like a Prius. Even so, as a general rule, the larger the bike, the higher the motorcycle shipping cost.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Most motorcycle shipping rates are based on the standard space a motorcycle takes up \u2014 about 4 feet by 9 feet. If your bike is wider, like a three wheeler, or heavier, there may be an added cost.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Insurance <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While your personal motorcycle liability insurance covers bodily injury or property damage during a ride, it likely won\u2019t extend to motorcycle transport. Luckily, all <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/blog\/motorcycle-transport-insurance-coverage\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">motorcycle transport companies carry their own liability insurance<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. It\u2019s important to communicate with your motorcycle\u2019s transporter about the total amount of coverage offered. If your motorcycle is of a higher value than they can pro7vide, you may need to purchase an add-on insurance package. This will have an extra fee attached to it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Accessibility<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Accessibility will play a role in how much the transporter decides to charge \u2014 if your bike is located off the beaten path there may be an extra fee for pick up or drop off. Urban areas near major cities and highways will often make accessing your bike a lot easier for the transporter. Even if your planned route is only a couple hundred miles, extra fees may be added on if either the pick up or drop off locations are remote or hard to access. Some <a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/blog\/best-motorcycle-shipping-companies\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\">motorcycle transport companies<\/a> won\u2019t travel to remote areas with unpaved roads or other rough terrain.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Combined or \u201cStacked\u201d Routes<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can usually find discounts with a motorcycle transporter that carries several bikes at a time. This is where having biker companions, or a biker club, comes in handy. If you and your friends are all planning to attend a rally or race at a dirt bike course together, you can ship them all at the same time on a stacked route, that way you can all save! If you\u2019re riding solo, that\u2019s okay too. Your motorcycle can still be added to a stacked route.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Pick Up and Drop Off Locations<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">D<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ensely populated areas will typically have more shipping companies to choose from. Since there is competition between motorcycle shipping companies in these areas, they will offer competitive rates. Inversely, if your bike is kept at a rural location, less options may be available.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Door-to-Door vs. Terminal Shipping<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You will also want to weigh the pros and cons of door-to-door shipping versus terminal shipping for your particular bike. Door-to-door pick up and drop off adds to the motorcycle shipping cost, but it also has added benefits that may make it worth the extra change. You\u2019re paying for convenience \u2014 the motorcycle is picked up from your desired location and leaves directly for the destination. This is ideal in express shipping situations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On the other hand, for terminal-to-terminal shipping, you will drop off your bike at a nearby location specified by the motorcycle shipping company. From there, it will await shipping and be taken to your destination. This is a cheaper option, but it may also take more time. If the driver is hauling several bikes at once you may need to wait until the trailer is full before they take off to your location. It lacks the direct-route approach of door-to-door services.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Season of Transport <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Summer marks a beloved time to ride \u2014 popular rallies like Sturgis in South Dakota accumulate 500,000+ bikers from all over the world. In winter, snow and ice can make it hard to ride safely in some areas. As you can see, the seasons may also play a role in determining the motorcycle shipping cost. You may experience a surge in prices during summer months due to high demand. Trucks will fill up fast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you plan on attending a rally, race or event, beat the crowd and book your shipment in advance. This will keep costs lower.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Crating Your Bike<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You may choose to<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/citizenshipper.com\/blog\/cost-to-crate-a-motorcycle\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> crate your bike<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, closing it up in a metal or wooden container. This will add to your motorcycle shipping cost because the loading process will require a forklift or extra loading equipment. The cost of a motorcycle crate itself typically ranges from $200 to $400. You can either find a transporter that will provide a crate or make one yourself. It\u2019s worth noting that building one yourself will add up to a similar price than buying one after the price of tools and materials. It is left up to your personal preference.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The main advantage of a motorcycle crate is the added protection and space it offers. This can be helpful to store spare parts and accessories in a compact manner. Storing these attachments is not recommended for open transport methods.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Thinking in Advance: Flexible vs. Express Shipping<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Just like buying a plane ticket or booking a hotel, planning your motorcycle transport as much in advance as possible will help you save. It allows the motorcycle shipping company enough time to plan and research your route, cutting costs down where possible. The more flexibility you have will be a great advantage. If you need next-day express shipping in a pinch, everyone will be in a rush, and you\u2019ll pay a higher fee.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Special Discounts<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You may qualify for discounts! Several motorcycle shipping companies offer discounts, usually around 15% off, for:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Members of the Military<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Emergency responders\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Motorcycle club memberships (like HOG or AMA<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>How You Can Save on Motorcycle Shipping Costs?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CitizenShipper is a great tool to narrow down your motorcycle shipping options \u2014 you\u2019ll save time and money with the help of transporter matchmaking and marketplace bidding.
