Los Angeles motorcycle shipping — in business since 1983
Los Angeles is one of the highest-volume motorcycle markets in the country, and it’s one of our busiest terminals. We’ve been moving bikes to and from the LA basin for over 40 years — through Anaheim, down to San Diego, up to San Jose, and on cross-country runs to Chicago, New York, and Florida. The corridors are familiar. The logistics are handled. No brokers, no mystery carriers — when you book with AA, we coordinate your shipment start to finish.
Our Anaheim terminal at 3320 E. Miraloma Ave. puts us right in the heart of Southern California. Whether your bike is sitting in a garage in Pasadena, a storage unit in Ontario, or a dealership in Irvine, we can get to it. Door-to-door is our most popular service in the LA market — most riders don’t need to bring their bike anywhere. We come to you.
LA is also a major destination for online motorcycle purchases. If you’ve bought a bike on CycleTrader, eBay Motors, or from a private seller in Texas, Florida, or the Midwest, we pick up directly from the seller and deliver to your door in LA. You don’t need to fly out. Just provide the seller’s address when you book and we handle everything from pickup to your driveway.
Non-palletized and palletized shipping are both available on all LA routes. For high-value customs, vintage Harleys, or anything you’d rather not risk on a long cross-country haul, palletized gives you maximum protection and online tracking. Not sure which is right? Call us — we’ll tell you straight.
We ship every type of motorcycle to and from Los Angeles
Harleys, Hondas, Ducatis, BMWs, Indians, Triumphs, Kawasakis, Yamahas, Suzukis — cruisers, sport bikes, adventure bikes, touring bikes, classics, customs, trikes, and everything in between. If it has two wheels and a motor, we’ve shipped it in Los Angeles.
- Harley-Davidson (all models)
- Sport bikes & crotch rockets
- Cruisers & touring bikes
- Adventure & dual-sport bikes
- Vintage & classic motorcycles
- Custom builds
- Electric motorcycles
- Trikes & sidecars
For electric motorcycles and oversized bikes, call us before booking — some configurations have special handling requirements and we’ll make sure everything is set up correctly before pickup day.

“My experience with AA Motorcycle Shipping was excellent. My Softail HD is spotless with no blemishes — it was picked up in Wisconsin and dropped off in California in the same condition. The staff and drivers were kind and professional. I would highly recommend them.”
Los Angeles motorcycle shipping — common questions
-
How much does it cost to ship a motorcycle to or from Los Angeles?
Starting prices range from around $425 for short regional routes (San Jose to LA) up to $845 for long cross-country routes (New York or Philadelphia to LA). The exact price depends on your specific pickup and delivery zip codes, your bike’s size and type, and whether you choose non-palletized or palletized shipping. Use the instant quote calculator above for your exact route — no email required.
-
How long does it take to ship a motorcycle to Los Angeles?
Transit time depends on your route. Short regional routes like LA to Phoenix take 2–3 days. Mid-range routes such as LA to Houston or Chicago run about 5 days to 1 week. Long cross-country routes from Los Angeles to the Northeast or Southeast typically take 2 weeks.
-
Can I drop off my motorcycle at the Los Angeles terminal same day?
Yes — same-day drop-off shipping is available at our Anaheim terminal at 3320 E. Miraloma Ave. You must place your order first during normal business hours to receive a booking number before arriving. This is a popular option for riders ending a road trip, dealing with a family emergency, or simply wanting to move quickly.
-
What’s the difference between palletized and non-palletized motorcycle shipping?
Non-palletized shipping is our standard service — your motorcycle is secured to eye bolts on the floor of an enclosed trailer. It’s safe, reliable, and more affordable. Door-to-door only. Palletized shipping secures your bike to a pallet and loads it into an enclosed air-ride trailer with a forklift — maximum protection, online tracking available, and it supports all service types including terminal drop-off. For vintage, custom, or high-value motorcycles on long LA cross-country runs, palletized is worth the premium.
-
Do you offer door-to-door motorcycle shipping in the Los Angeles area?
Yes — door-to-door is our most popular service and it’s available throughout greater Los Angeles, Orange County, the Inland Empire, and everywhere in between. We come to your home, storage unit, dealership, or anywhere else your bike is located. No need to bring it to our Anaheim terminal.
-
Do you ship motorcycles bought online to Los Angeles?
Absolutely — this is one of the most common shipments we handle through our LA terminal. If you’ve purchased a bike on CycleTrader, eBay Motors, or from a private seller anywhere in the country, we pick up directly from the seller and deliver to your Los Angeles door. You don’t need to fly out to retrieve it. Just provide the seller’s address when you book.
-
Is a military discount available for Los Angeles motorcycle shipping?
Yes — Military, Veteran, and 1st Responder discounts are available. Get an instant quote online first, then call us at 1-888-347-1391 to apply the discount before booking. We handle PCS moves regularly for military personnel stationed at Camp Pendleton, Edwards AFB, and other Southern California installations.
-
Do I need to drain the gas tank before shipping from Los Angeles?
You don’t need to drain it completely — keep fuel at or below a quarter tank. A nearly empty tank reduces weight and eliminates fuel-related concerns during transport. We’ll send you a complete preparation checklist when you book.
