    Question Recommendations for shipping a motorcycle cross country?

    Anyone have recommendations for this? I’m thinking of buying a bike from my bro in Maine and shipping to Washington State.

    I did a quick search online and the quote was crazy expensive.

    Are the good companies? Or a good online portal for finding shippers?

    Uship.com If you are not constraint for time, then you can get pretty cheap quotes

    I haven't used them personally, but an acquaintance who is a mechanic in Florida recommends http://www.keyboardmotorcycleshipping.com/.
    He regularly has Goldwings shipped to him and he's said they are by far the best he's seen.

    I have shipped my bike one time before and used Sterling (STI) to ship from Chelmsford to Denver. Uneventful. This was about 7 years ago, so it is not a recent experience.

    Too bad there's a Covid epidemic: been looking for an excuse to drive the van cross-country.

    Somebody must want a bike shipped from here to there or there to here.
