Cycle shipping companies

Post by doug rooney »

I'm in Wi and have a guy interested in a bike I have for sale (Honda CA95). He's wondering what it would cost to ship it to Syracuse NY. Anyone know of some good shippers that do that?? Thanks, Doug

I had my 380 shipped from Mich to TX, I think it was around $540. They did a good job. I checked, I think it was Shipping Master.

Put up an ad on http://www.uship.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Some of the main shippers such as Federal Moving Companies (Allied Van Lines) put in a bid right away. You might find someone who is near where you are going right to Syracuse. They will put a bid in to ship the bike.

I ship several bikes a year, and I always use Uship . Usually takes about a week or so of shippers "bidding" to find the best deal. I just had a T500 delivered to me in OH from New York City for $200.
