Default Shipping Motorcycle

I'm looking to ship a few bikes from Bellingham WA (or Vancouver BC) to San Diego ( Ya I know I should be riding both ways but unfortunately life has time constraints) and then then group will be riding the coastline back from San Diego to Bellingham. Has anyone used a shipping service and if so how crazy was the cost ? There a few other threads on here but they were from years ago and I'm looking for a more recent experience.

Thanks all

Punchy, last month I shipped my bike, pic below, from Coeur d’Alene, Idaho to Las Vegas vía Daily Direct Haulbikes for $500. They’re based in Milwaukee and have a terminal in Las Vegas. Think I entered my order around 11/15 and they responded they would pick up about a week later at my house and would deliver in Vegas by 12/12. Pickup was on time with good notice and was advised the Vegas delivery was 12/5. Driver was professional, courteous and a biker (odd combo, I know Also, their equipment was first class. I won’t be in Vegas until 1/8, but guy who checked it in texted all went well. So, overall I’d recommend them based on my experience.

Yep, I used them last January to ship a Sportster I picked up in Wisconsin during my holiday visit. It was around $500 to ship it to me in Florida. I would not hesitate to use them again.
