FAQ
How much does it cost to ship a motorcycle?
Every motorcycle move is different. Costs depend on distance, route, transport type, access, and any additional requirements. At Breakwells, we provide individual quotes tailored to your journey, so you’ll always know exactly what’s included before we collect your bike.
How long does shipping take?
Delivery times are estimates (not guarantees under the RHA Conditions). As a guide:
- Local/Regional: Usually within a couple of days
- Cross-UK: A few days
- Offshore: Longer, depending on ferry schedules, customs, and routing
We confirm expected windows when you book and keep you updated.
Do I need to prepare my motorcycle?

Is insurance included?
We include standard liability cover under RHA Conditions, which has limits and exclusions. For higher-value bikes, we can arrange additional cover if agreed at booking.

At Breakwells, we focus on enclosed trailers to help keep your motorcycle protected and secure in transit.

What if my bike is damaged in transit?
Inspect your motorcycle on delivery and note any issues immediately. Claims must be made within the strict timeframes set out in the RHA Conditions. Liability is limited, but we’ll guide you through the process and help resolve matters quickly.
