Motorcycle & Powersports Auction Shipping — Safe, Specialized Transport
Motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, and side-by-sides are increasingly common purchases at auctions like Copart, IAA, Manheim, and ADESA. Buyers include dealers, private enthusiasts, and exporters who need small but high-value machines delivered quickly and safely.
These vehicles don’t load like cars. They need proper strapping, crating, and lift-gate equipment to avoid damage during transit. At Auction Auto Shippers (a division of NX, LLC), we know the quirks of moving two-wheeled and powersports vehicles and have carriers ready for these specialized moves.
How It Works
Step 1 — Provide auction details. Send us the auction branch, Lot #, VIN, and gate pass. Note if it’s a motorcycle, ATV, UTV, or other powersports unit.
Step 2 — Assign the right setup. We use enclosed trailers with wheel chocks, crating (when needed), and lift-gate trucks for safe loading.
Step 3 — Pickup and delivery. The carrier checks in, loads under auction policy, secures the bike/unit with straps or chocks, and delivers with a photo condition report at both ends.
