I have used UShip twice, you will get bids from various haulers...only problem I found is you'll likely pay a fortune unless a shipper can combine the trip with several items with pick-up and delivery along the route...I am afraid you have a bit of a dilemma with the distance...good luck with whatever way you go with this...

 

I must have been lucky then.
Yes, customer service was not great, but process was easy, bike was picked up in time, and delivered way ahead of time.

 

BTW, as I have to likely have another bike shipped (from FL/keys to CA), I went and got quotes from MotorcycleShippers (AKA JCMotors) and Federal.
Former $715, latter $1500.
Now I remember way I ditched Federal at my previous shipment.

 

First thing is that any company that moves bikes has to have insurance. You can look them up using the FMCSA website if you need further information. As for recommendations, I've used a1autotransport.com/ a couple times shipping from the midwest to the west coast and I'd use them again. From the looks of things, it seems like they handle long distance shipments pretty regularly too. Hope this helps.

 

Probably would've helped if you had told him 2 years ago before he already shipped his bike.

I love these old threads popping back up every now and then.

 

I had used Federal Motorcycle Transport twice in the past. No problems both times.

 

Sorry for reviving this thread ... I did not catch the original date on it.

 

I strongly recommend that you do not use Careful Transport Services out of Miami Florida. I confirmed the total cost two times with them. I was then overcharged $150. They will not respond to emails. They lied several times regarding the pick-up of my motorcycle. Totally unprofessional. Also, like a lot of these companies, they don’t actually do the transport. They are just a troll company that then finds an actual mover.

 

Deleted my reply. Didn't realize it was an old post
