Who has come across as the best shipper of motorcycles?
I saw the list on the info page and just want to get rider's opinions on who did the best job.
I moving back to New England so those that want to say ride it there, you can come and get all my belongings and bring it there for me... |

We've used 800 HAUL BIKES a couple of times with good results.
No need to palletize, they load and strap down, also have a lift to load them in the trailer.
(when I bought the K1100 / EML it showed up in an Atlas van line truck with no lift, had to get a roll back wrecker, roll the bike off the truck onto the wrecker, then lower it to the ground with the wrecker )

I used them before - not door to door - you have to go to their freight dock and put bike into container.
