I am looking for a reliable, reasonably priced shipper for a bike going from Tulsa OK to VA. Any suggestions? Thank you. |

Just a little advise. If you can drop it at a freight shipping hub yourself and pick it up from a hub it will save you a bunch of money. Shipping directly to your door is way to expensive. I shipped mine to California and back. I used this comapany here is a link: http://www.freightcenter.com/motorcycle_shipping.a spx?_kk=%2Bcycle%20%2Bmotor%20%2Bshipping&_kt=7afb 1168-57dc-459f-9f5f-32282db784c1&gclid=CPnijLz1w6s CFRdUgwod2hRlzg |

I used Eagle One and they are good. They specialize in bikes and fair price http://www.eagleoneexpress.com/ Shipped my VRSCR from IL to ID. Right to my front door. |

I've had good luck with Uship. Decent pricing, always check out the reviews old the potential shipper. |

Thank you for all the recommendations. I will try these and compare prices and reviews. I will post who I choose and how things turned out. Thank you all again. |

Saw a Daily Direct semi leaving town last week- IIRC they are who my old boss uses to haul bikes from the dealership here. |

Steve Parkhurst. steve@paposteve.com Good guy, runs the east to west route and back, lives in Florida I think. He picked up a bike for me in North Carolina and dropped it in Arizona, and sent another one from Arizona to my son in Florida. He has a truck and enclosed trailer and just moves bikes. Door to door service, no additional charge, and charged $475 for both of them. Licensed, bonded, insured. Takes time off to visit the grandkids between trips. He prefers to stay south so may not want to go to Tulsa but may not mind either. LJM |

The uship.com prices start high and then work themselves down. The more flexible you are the cheaper they seem to get. I put my bid in several weeks before the actual shipment. Don't always go with the cheapest ppl on there. |
