I think their business model is to generally pick up bikes and take them to one of their facilities so the loads can be better sorted to whatever part of the country a particular truck is headed towards. They haul quite a few bikes per truck, so this makes sense, when compared to car haulers that only haul six at a time.
That’s how they get to the prices they offer. I have shipped stuff for 400 bucks to the West Coast before, which is pretty cheap.
I have shipped a lot of cars and bikes and I am never in a hurry to get them from point A to point B, because when it makes more sense for the shipper, I get the best price. I’m more concerned about the quality of the truck and the driver and how they tie things down.
I’ve seen other people use all sorts of outfits, some of which I wouldn’t use. I’ve seen horror stories that you don’t want to repeat with anything you own…
