Harley-Davidson Shipping
Quick answer
Harley-Davidson shipping moves Road Glides, Street Glides, Softails, Sportsters, and Tri Glides in an enclosed trailer, door to door, with soft-tie straps on the frame rather than on chrome or bags. Tell us the model, year, and any add-ons. Call for your exact price.
About our harley-davidson shipping
Big touring Harleys are heavy, long, and covered in chrome and paint you do not want straps rubbing against. They are secured at the frame and lower triple clamp, with the front wheel in a chock, and fairings, bags, and tour packs stay clear of the straps.
Let us know about a tour pack, highway bars, extended forks, a tall windshield, or a sidecar when you book. They change how much space the bike needs.
What's included
- Touring, Softail, Sportster, and CVO models

- Enclosed trailer, door to door
Every shipment includes
The Motorcycle Transporters standard
Fully enclosed transport
Your bike rides inside a closed trailer, out of the rain, road grime, rock chips, and sight of passers-by.
Door to door
We pick up at your address and deliver to the address you choose. If a street is too tight for a truck, we agree on a nearby meeting spot with you first.
Soft-tie straps
Straps wrap the frame and triple clamps, not painted or chromed parts, and the front wheel sits in a chock so the bike stays upright.
Insured carriers
Your shipment is handled by insured carriers. Ask us for the coverage details on your shipment before you book.

FAQ
Harley-Davidson Shipping questions
Should I remove saddlebags or a tour pack before shipping?
Hard bags and tour packs can usually stay on, but empty them. Loose soft bags and anything that comes off with a quick-release are best removed and packed separately.
Can you ship a Harley I bought from a dealer in another state?
Yes. Give us the dealer’s contact details and confirm the bike is paid for and released, and we arrange pickup.
Can you ship a Harley CVO or a bike with custom paint?
Yes. Enclosed transport and soft-tie straps on the frame keep straps and weather away from custom paint and chrome. Mention the paint when you book.
Do you ship Harleys with a sidecar?
Yes, but tell us when you book. A sidecar rig is wider and is loaded and secured differently from a solo bike.
