USA Southeast » Shipping r1200

Hello all, I need small suggestion from you guys,

I'm going to selling my r1200 bike and I need to ship it form houston to Ft. Lewis Washington. I don't know much about shipping. My buyer recommend me for Citizenshipper for motorcycle transport (citizenshipper.com/motorcycle-transportation) , as this is my first time for delivering a bike and i don't know much bike transporting and delivering.

Are there any motorcycle shipping companies that you have experience with and would personally recommend?

So, recommendations, help would be much appreciated.

Is there any special thing which i need to know like any tips

Any special tip for load/ unload.

And what do you think about average cost come out to be.

Sorry for asking to many questions.

Thanks in advance

Kenny, when I bought my bike (used) from BMW Jacksonville, FL, I had it shipped out to Alameda, CA for about $800 IIRC. That was for cross country and without a hard schedule. I used Uship and found that if you are flexible with the ship dates, you can get a pretty decent deal. I suppose you would need to speak with your buyer on their timeline requirements but I had a good experience using them.

I have used Haulbikes.com and recommend them. In 2016 I had my bike shipped from Asheville NC to Houston for $450. The bike was picked up from Eurosport Asheville and delivered in front of my house in perfect condition.

Lovely people to do business.

I can't remember which outlet I used to ship my Triumph from SoCal to NC, but I think it was Haulbikes as well. Their customer service was average. My main complaint was that I'd never shipped a bike before and didn't know anything. They ship bikes all the time, but didn't do a great job explaining the process. That said, everything else went incredibly smoothly. I think is was around $650, and wasn't on a strict schedule, but was guaranteed delivery in 2-3 weeks I think. If you can, it's a little cheaper and much easier to ship from a dealership to another dealership. My bike was delivered to a H-D/Triumph shop, and although the dealership has typical H-D customer service, meaning poor unless you ride a H-D, they were super cool about the delivery. Best of luck!

I used http://www.keyboardmotorcycleshipping.com/ to move a K1200R Sport from Poolesville, MD to Austin, TX once. Worked very well for me. The price was fair and there were no surprises.
