The Short answer is “No,” but most bike owners do. If you are asking yourself this question, the real answer is “Yes.”
There is a full range of reasons to ship your bike; they included but limited to:
Please call one of our experts customer service representative to explain how to ship a motorcycle and choosing the best motorcycle courier, as motorcycle shipping is different then car transport.
5. We are also a car transport company if the need
arises.
When you are shipping your motorcycle, the motorcycle courier has insurance coverage to protect you from any possible loss of your bike. Typically, your motorcycle insurance will cover the bike during transportation and subrogate against the carriers' insurance. So naturally, you do not need to have insurance, but it is always a good idea to have insurance on your motorcycle. Please discuss this with your insurance company for details on how your specific policy is set up. Depending on the overall value of your Motorcycle, you may want to ask for an increase in the minimum insurance coverage offered. We always recommend you call the carriers' insurance to verify it, giving you peace of mind. Don't hesitate to get in touch with the carrier's insurance company directly or go to the FMCSA website to verify insurance.
All professional motorcycle or car transport companies are required to carry shipping insurance. The insurance will cover any damage done to the motorcycle while in possession of the carrier. Insurance is not a concern as long as legitimate/reliable carriers are hired. The insurance coverage should protect the entire value of the bike.
What Happens if My Motorcycle is Damaged During Transport?
Before the carrier takes possession of your motorcycle, he will perform a complete visual inspection of your bike; if you see something, please inform the carrier so it can be notated. The carrier notates any and all damage (dings, dents, scratches, etc.) on what is called a bill of lading. Rember 2 sets of eyes are better than one. The carrier and the person handing over the bike will sign this bill of lading. The carrier will leave a copy for your records and your protection.
Once you hand your motorcycle over to the carrier, the carrier's insurance company takes over. It is always best to keep your policy active during this process as a backup. It is state and federal regulations that all licensed motorcycle and auto transport companies must provide at least the minimum amount of insurance. Each state sets the requirements for the amount of coverage that a shipping company must provide.
When you place an order with WolfePack Motorcycle Transport, you can discuss all insurance details with your customer service representative. It is always wise to verify coverage and maintain your motorcycle insurance even though we take every possible step to protect your motorcycle. Also, confirm how to ship a motorcycle because there are many different choices, and you want the one to best suit your specific needs. Wise men always protect themselves.
Before the carrier releases the motorcycle to the receiving person, they will check the bike visually for any damage (dings, dents, scratches, etc.) to verify that nothing occurred during transit. If you see something, please point it out to the carrier so it can be notated. Failure to notate the bill of lading can result in the insurance company not covering a claim.
Once the motorcycle has been delivered, what is not notated on the bill of lading may not be covered under the insurance. Therefore, please make sure the bill of lading is accurate before you sign it. You will receive a copy for your records.
If you have to file a claim, please call the insurance company directly to get the process started, do not rely on anyone to do this for you. Insurance claim processing needs to be done within four days or the next business day, whatever one comes first. Please make sure to follow the directions of the insurance company. If you have insurance on your motorcycle, please inform them as well, as it will assist in speeding any insurance process that needs to be done. After you get the process started, you must notify WolfePack Transport, LLC within 72 hours so that we can keep track of the process. WolfePack will assist you with any paperwork the insurance company may need. Please keep all copies of the bill of lading. Please click here to notify us.
