The "First Class" Standard for Motorcycle Relocation

Stop worrying about road debris or improper loading and start looking forward to your next ride. What sets us apart from standard auto transporters is our specialized “No-Touch” motorcycle handling process. We recognize that motorcycles require unique stabilization that traditional car haulers simply can’t provide. Our background-checked, professional crews use heavy-duty, specialized skids and soft-loop tie-down systems that secure your bike by the frame, not the handlebars, preventing suspension strain and chrome damage. Whether you choose open or enclosed transport, we provide a dedicated Vehicle Coordinator and real-time tracking, providing the technical excellence and transparency that motorcycle enthusiasts demand.

The gold standard for protection. Your bike is shielded from weather, dust, and road debris in a fully enclosed, climate-shielded trailer.

For long-distance or international moves, we secure your motorcycle to a custom-engineered skid, providing a stable foundation that prevents tipping.

Door-to-Door Delivery +

FAQ

What You Need to Know About Motorcycle Shipping

Do I need to drain the gas tank before shipping?

We generally require the fuel level to be at 1/4 tank or less. This minimizes weight and meets safety regulations while ensuring you have enough fuel to ride to a station upon delivery.

How is the motorcycle secured inside the truck?

We use specialized “soft-tie” straps that wrap around stable frame points. This prevents metal-on-metal contact and ensures the bike is compressed just enough to stay stable without damaging the suspension.

Is my motorcycle insured during the move?

Yes. We provide comprehensive valuation coverage options. Your bike is protected from the moment we take possession until the final delivery signature is captured.

Can I ship my helmet and gear with the bike?

For safety and inventory reasons, we recommend that accessories and gear be packed separately. However, if items are securely locked in hard-side panniers, they can often remain with the motorcycle.

How long does cross-country motorcycle shipping take?

Transit times vary by distance, but a typical cross-country move takes between 7 to 14 days. We provide real-time tracking so you can follow your bike’s journey.

We were very pleased with First Class Moving. We had them pack and move us and they were professional, efficient, and incredibly careful with every item. They handled both the heavy furniture and the fragile pieces with the same level of attention, and it made the move much less stressful than it might otherwise have been. What really stood out was their positive attitude and clear communication throughout the entire process. They worked quickly and carefully without ever feeling rushed. If you’re looking for movers who are reliable, respectful, and genuinely committed to doing great work, I highly recommend them. Phil was extremely helpful in our move, patiently answering all the dumb questions we asked and keeping us advised throughout the process.

Used them a few times. Professional, efficient, reasonably priced and excellent client service. We have moved several times internationally and nationally with different moving companies but found First Class Moving Company checks all the boxes. Steve is experienced, client focussed, great to deal with and knows what he is doing for the best interest of client and his firm.

From the moment we requested a quote, to the final delivery, Phil and the entire team provide great service. Phil was prompt with his appointment to quote and work with us on the best way to handle the move. The scheduling team always returned our calls and answered any questions we had. The packers and loaders were careful with our furniture and the people who unloaded were timely when unloading. Phil was exceptionally knowledgeable about the business and was professional and prompt with his appointments. Was always willing to answer any questions. We heard about Phil fro someone else and he didn’t disappoint.
