Most auto transport companies can ship just about any type of vehicle: from small, 2-seat sports cars to most standard sized vans, pick-up trucks, and SUVs. These vehicles all fit on a standard open car carrier.
For motorcycles, however, it is probably best to work with a company that specializes in motorcycle shipping . Although many auto shipping companies can handle them, companies that specialize in shipping motorcycles have the proper equipment and experience necessary to ensure a smooth and hassle-free transport.
If your vehicle is inoperable (i.e. it cannot be driven onto a car carrier), you will need to inform the car shipping company of its condition, as it will require special equipment for getting it on and off the truck. Most car shipping companies are able to handle the transport of an inoperable vehicle for an additional fee.
