Hi all Apologies if this is in the wrong place. I am moving house from the Midlands to Northumberland and would prefer to have my bikes moved properly rather that trust the movers. Anyone recommend a good bike mover and prices? I have a Street Triple and a Speedmaster which need to go.
Hello Mate I have never used these people but they seem to have good reviews. http://www.a2bmotorcyclemovers.co.uk/A2Bmotorcylemovers/Feedback.html#nil
Try this mate then pick and choose phone them up etc https://www.deliveryquotecompare.com/vehicle-delivery/motorcycle-transport/
Thanks guys, just had a quote from A2B and they have said it would be £342. Will try the quote compare site now.
I used Baz at www.specialisedmotorcycletransport.com when I bought my bike. He transported it safely from London to the north of Scotland. Provides online GPS tracking as well. That price seems high, I was just under £250 for my transport.
How about renting a two bike trailer, about £50 for a couple of days, hitching up to removers van (assuming they have tow bar), get them to return trailer for a drink and Bobs your new neighbour
Yes thought about that and getting a tow bar fitted to the car and buying or hiring a trailer. Cost of tow bars and trailer too expensive I can get them moved by one of these specialists for less than the cost of a tow bar If I hired a van, I have to leave a car In the Midlands as I work away from home so we have 2 cars. Cheapest quote so far is £270
Don't fancy that idea, they need a big rig to move me and al we have in the house, don't trust them to move the bikes, they will move them but I would rather a pro bike mover does it. I could ride them up but that is 2 return journeys and I have nowhere to store them atm. Garages are like hens teeth in Northumberland
Not too bad mate I'd say between £110 and £140 per bike Used Route 66 a couple of years ago Leeds to Suffolk £103 don't know if they're still going though
Hi I have used Martin Thomas - he works for dealers and private . Very experienced and fully insured with good value. 07970 915560
2wheeltrans,,,,delivered my sport R from West Sussex to Glasgow in perfect nick,,,,great company & very reasonable,,,kept me informed every step of the way ,
Hi Pitbull, I used PJS Transwift 01902 881484 & 07831559538 a couple of years ago & he got it there & back safely. His name is Peter & based in Sedgeley I think? The CBX Club use & trust him that's how I got his number. Takes photo`s of bike plus a check sheet you sign your happy etc .He does "store" bikes too if that helps? All the best...…..I hate moving house
Thanks for the replies all. It seems £270 is the cheapest for both although I see another couple of options to investigate now.
Have used route 66 transportation now 3 times....100% reliability including moving a bike from Hull to Essex for 125 quid if I remember...Excellent company & totally professional IMO
