Shipping Motorcycles Overseas

As compared to shipping within the US, transporting motorcycles to other countries is very complicated and complex. The major difference is the ship method of transportation. Most of the time, oversea shipments will go through 3steps such as:

Step 1 – Moving your bike from its current location to the port

Step 2 – Shipping from the port to another port

Step 3 – Having it transported from the port to your preferred destination

Given these additional steps, you can tell that the expenses are likely to add up eventually. Also, there are too many processes involved which means more time will be required as compared to shipping domestically. The shipping cost will likely increase when the bike’s current location isn’t close to a shipping port. The same can be said of its ultimate destination. All of these can make the cost increase to a great extent.

Different Options For Shipping Motorcycles Internationally RORO

When it comes to transporting vehicles by sea, this method is very popular amongst others. It involves your motorcycle being driven onto the boat and secured internally using a mechanism (built-in). After that, it will then be transported to the port that is closest to your destination. Upon arrival, it will get transported using a standard carrier to your specified location.

This is another way to ensure your motorcycle is protected and safe while being transported to another country. It is a system where such bike will get fastened onto a crate. After getting enclosed, it will then be put on a pallet prior to getting transported.

Door-To-Door Transport

This involves having the motorcycle shipped to your doorstep. There won’t be any need trying to go pick it up in a port. This is because it will be delivered to your specified location. This is recommended for expensive and exotic bikes. The reason is because it can offer your bike some additional protection which otherwise wouldn’t have been possible. Although it is quite expensive, you will be rendered the best of services.

Port-To-Port

This option is more affordable as compared to door-to-door option explained above. It entails the motorcycle being delivered at the closest port for you to have it picked up. The only problem with this method is that you will need to go through the stress of picking it up at the port. However, you can save from $200-$500 using this option.
