Motorcycle Shipping Cost Factors
Understanding what affects the cost of shipping a motorcycle can help you plan your budget. Here are the key factors that influence motorcycle shipping prices:
- Distance: The farther your motorcycle needs to travel, the higher the shipping cost. Cross-country shipments typically cost more than regional transport.
- Motorcycle Type & Size: Larger motorcycles like touring bikes and trikes require more space and specialized equipment, increasing the cost compared to standard models.
- Service Type: Door-to-door service costs more than terminal-to-terminal. Similarly, enclosed transport is pricier than open transport options.
- Time of Year: Shipping rates tend to be higher during peak seasons (summer months) and around major holidays when demand increases.
- Location Accessibility: Remote or difficult-to-access locations may incur additional fees compared to easily accessible urban or suburban areas.
- Urgency: Expedited or guaranteed delivery dates will increase the cost compared to flexible delivery windows.
| Distance | Average Door-to-Door Cost | Average Terminal-to-Terminal Cost | Estimated Transit Time |
| 0-500 miles | $350-$450 | $280-$380 | 1-3 days |
| 501-1000 miles | $450-$600 | $380-$500 | 3-5 days |

Why Choose GlobalCarMove for Shipping your motorcycle
When you need to move a motorcycle across state lines, three options usually surface: ride it yourself, rent a truck and trailer, or hire a professional shipper. Riding sounds adventurous until you add up the extra mileage, weather risks, hotel bills, and the fatigue that sets in after hours on the road. Renting a truck isn’t much easier—fuel for a larger vehicle, loading hazards, and the nerves that come with securing a bike you love inside equipment you barely know, plus the hassle of returning the rig afterward.
Our professional motorcycle shipping service removes every one of those headaches. We pick the bike up at your door and deliver it to the next, fully insured, without a single extra mile on the odometer. Certified handlers strap each motorcycle to industry-rated hardware, and you track the shipment in real time while staying focused on work or family. Nationwide coverage, door-to-door convenience, and support on call 24/7 all come baked into one clear quote—no surprise add-ons. It’s the same state-to-state car-shipping expertise we bring to cars, now tailored for bikes. And if you’re hunting for cheap car shipping–level value, you’ll find our motorcycle rates just as budget-friendly without cutting corners on safety.
