2. Ride to Your Nearest Terminal

Ride your motorcycle to the terminal during business hours (Mon–Fri). Our team of bike-handling experts will meet you, inspect the bike, and document its condition on a bill of lading. Please give the terminal at least 1 business day advance notice before arrival.

3. We Secure & Ship

Your motorcycle is mounted on our specially designed shipping skid and secured with soft-loop tie-down straps. It travels in a fully enclosed, air-ride trailer — never mixed with household goods or general freight.

4. Ride Out at the Destination

When your bike arrives, we’ll notify you. Show up at the destination terminal, inspect your motorcycle against the pickup documentation, start it up, and ride away.

Why Riders Choose Terminal Shipping

• 5 days faster — your bike is already at the hub, so it skips residential pickup routing and gets on the next outbound truck.
• Lower cost — fewer stops and more efficient routing means savings we pass directly to you. Compare pricing here.
• No prep required — ride in with a full tank, all accessories attached. The driver handles everything.
• Valuation coverage included — your bike is protected from the moment you drop it off until you pick it up. Upgradable for high-value motorcycles at $7 per $1,000.
• Dedicated account rep — one person handles your shipment. No call centers.
• Online tracking — follow your bike from terminal to terminal.
• Mix & match — you can drop off at a terminal and have the bike delivered door-to-door on the other end, or vice versa.

When Terminal Shipping Makes Sense

• Rally & event rides — shipping your bike to Sturgis, Daytona Bike Week, or Laconia? Drop it at a terminal, fly out, and ride when you get there.
• Long-distance moves — relocating? Terminal drop-off saves money while you focus on the rest of your move.
• Online purchases — bought a bike on eBay or Cycle Trader? Have the seller drop it at the nearest terminal.
• Dealer transfers — moving inventory between locations? Terminal-to-terminal is the most cost-effective option. Learn about our dealer program.
• Seasonal snowbird moves — heading south for winter or north for summer? Ship the bike ahead and fly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to prepare my motorcycle before dropping it off?

No preparation is needed. Ride in with a full tank, leave on your mirrors, saddlebags, windshield — everything stays as-is. The driver handles all securing and loading.

How much faster is terminal-to-terminal vs. door-to-door?

Typically about 5 business days faster. Since your bike is already at the hub, it skips residential pickup routing and gets on the next outbound truck.

Can I drop off one end and get door-to-door delivery on the other?

Absolutely. You can mix and match — terminal drop-off on one end and door-to-door delivery on the other, or any combination.

What types of vehicles can I drop off at a terminal?

All types — cruisers, sportbikes, touring bikes, dirt bikes, ATVs, and UTVs. Non-running vehicles are welcome too — just let us know when booking.

What are terminal hours?

Terminals are open Monday through Friday for our Classic Shipping Service. Give the terminal at least 1 business day advance notice before drop-off, and complete your reservation at least 2 business days before arriving.
