Shipping Policy – Ensuring Safe Delivery of Your Classic Motorcycle
. Our Commitment to Safe Shipping
At Vintage Bike Trader, we understand that vintage motorcycles are not just vehicles—they are treasures. Each bike represents history, craftsmanship, and passion. That’s why we handle every shipment with the utmost care, ensuring that your classic motorcycle reaches you safely and securely, whether you are nearby or across the globe.
. Domestic Shipping
For customers within the country, we use trusted carriers experienced in handling motorcycles. Each bike is carefully packaged, secured, and transported to minimize any risk during transit. Before shipping, our team thoroughly inspects each bike, documents its condition, and provides updates to keep you informed throughout the process.
. International Shipping
We also provide international shipping for select locations. Our team assists with all logistics, including customs documentation, import regulations, and insurance coverage. Vintage motorcycles are carefully crated and secured to withstand long-distance transport. We ensure compliance with each country’s regulations to make international delivery smooth and worry-free.
. Customized Shipping Options
Each vintage motorcycle is unique, and shipping requirements vary. We offer customized solutions based on the bike’s size, weight, and value. From open-air carriers to fully enclosed transportation, we select the most appropriate method to maintain the motorcycle’s integrity. Our goal is to provide peace of mind while safeguarding your investment.
. Insurance and Protection
Every shipment is fully insured to protect against unexpected events during transit. In addition to standard insurance coverage, we offer guidance on additional protection options for higher-value or rare motorcycles. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that your classic bike arrives in the same condition as it left our collection.
. Tracking Your Shipment
Transparency is key. Once your motorcycle is shipped, we provide tracking information so you can monitor its journey in real-time. You’ll receive updates on each stage, from departure to arrival, giving you confidence that your vintage motorcycle is on its way safely.
. Preparation Before Shipping
To prepare your motorcycle for shipping, we perform detailed inspections, drain fluids if necessary, secure loose components, and protect fragile parts. This preparation minimizes risk and ensures that the bike is delivered in optimal condition. Photos and condition reports are provided before shipping to maintain full transparency.
. Delivery Timeline
Shipping times vary depending on distance and shipping method. Domestic shipments typically arrive within a few business days, while international deliveries may take longer depending on customs processing and transport routes. We provide estimated timelines and keep you informed throughout the process.
. Customer Support During Shipping
Our dedicated team is available to answer questions and address concerns before, during, and after shipment. We provide guidance on receiving your motorcycle, unloading procedures, and reassembly if necessary. Our priority is ensuring a smooth, worry-free experience from start to finish.
