Shipping options

How would you like to ship?

Choose the combination that fits your schedule and location. All options use enclosed freight trailers — motorcycles are never placed on open car haulers.

Door-to-Door

We pick up from your address in Anchorage (or anywhere nationwide) and deliver directly to the destination address. No terminal visit required on either end.

Terminal Combinations

Mix and match. Drop off at the Anchorage terminal and have it delivered to a door, or schedule door pickup and collect at a destination terminal. Flexible to fit your needs.

Terminal-to-Terminal

Drop your bike at the Anchorage terminal and pick it up at a terminal near your destination. Often the most cost-effective option for customers near a terminal on both ends.


Shipping methods

Non-palletized vs. palletized shipping

We offer two enclosed freight methods. Both protect your motorcycle inside a trailer — neither uses open car haulers.

Non-palletized motorcycle shipping — bike secured upright in enclosed trailer

Non-Palletized (Standard)

Your motorcycle rides upright, secured with straps to the floor of an enclosed freight trailer. No pallet is used. This is our most common method and works well for most bikes and routes. Fuel tank must be no more than 1/4 full.

Palletized motorcycle shipping — bike mounted on wooden pallet in enclosed trailer

Palletized (Premium)

Your motorcycle is mounted on a wooden pallet and secured with straps. Ideal for longer distances, show bikes, or owners who want an extra layer of protection. The fuel tank must be fully drained and the battery disconnected for palletized shipments.

Why AA Motorcycle Shipping

Alaska’s trusted motorcycle shipping coordinator

Shipping a motorcycle to or from Alaska is not like a standard lower-48 route. The logistics are more complex, distances are greater, and not every shipper has the experience or terminal presence to handle it reliably. AA Motorcycle Shipping has coordinated Alaska shipments since 1983, and our Anchorage terminal at 209 Post Road is a long-established stop on our nationwide network of 47 terminals.

We are not a carrier — we don’t own trucks — and we’re not a lead-gen broker that hands your information off to the lowest bidder. We work through Central Dispatch and manage your shipment ourselves from booking through delivery. That means one point of contact, clear communication, and accountability at every step. If you have a question about your Anchorage shipment, you call us — not a stranger.

Alaska riders often ship for practical reasons: PCS military orders to or from Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, seasonal relocation, online motorcycle purchases, or simply wanting to ride somewhere new without the miles on the bike. Whatever the reason, our team understands Alaska’s unique routing challenges and will give you an honest transit estimate based on your specific origin and destination.

With over 3,000 verified reviews and a 4.7-star rating, our track record speaks for itself. Get an instant quote today or call us at 1-888-347-1391 to talk through your Anchorage shipment.

Due to some communication failures, we were initially sent to the wrong address in Sacramento to drop off my '14 Ultra Limited. After several frantic calls to AA Shipping in San Diego, we finally reached the Valley Relocation and Storage dispatcher who went out of her way to find us in that industrial complex. Danielle was fantastic!! Once she took control of the situation, I was able to ride the bike onto the custom pallet, warehouse gentlemen (super nice and real experts) carefully and expertly strapped the bike down, and my wife and I began our own drive across the country. We arrived in Massachusetts in 6 days; we got a phone call the following day--the bike arrived at the Sterling terminal in Lowell, MA on the 7th day! There, the guys were incredibly helpful getting the bike's battery jumped started. I can honestly say that you could do a lot worse with other motorcycle shippers, but you couldn't do better than AA Shipping. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

AMAZING service!. Julia started off by helping me navigate the on line process, then responded quickly to any questions I had throughout the transport. When a possible additional charge was suggested, Julia was able to mitigate it. My vehicle arrived in perfect condition, and the driver was very careful to unload it with great care. I could not be more pleased with the overall experience. Thank you, AA.
Response from the owner:Thanks very much for the business Todd

Fantastic service from start to finish. I contacted another company before them and was quoted nearly double the price. These guys were professional, affordable, and communicated with me throughout the entire process from pickup to delivery. No hidden fees, no surprises, and my bike arrived without any issues. I highly recommend them to anyone needing motorcycle transport.

I was extremely hesitant to ship my motorcycle from San Diego to Oregon. The thought of pre-paying $1,000 for strangers to come and load my bike up in their box truck and drive away, hoping to see them again a few days later, made me sick to my stomach. I'm so happy I was absolutely wrong to have any negative thoughts about AA Motorcycle Shipping. They were extremely professional, communicative, and took great care of my bike. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to ship a motorcycle anywhere in the country!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the trust and the business Riley.

got my motorcycle from Maryland to Utah in a pretty timely manner. I also needed some same day shipping and they were able to accommodate me by allowing me to bring the motorcycle to their shipping facility to get it on a crate. The customer service agent I called was also super helpful (she works in accounting, can't remember her name). Will absolutely use again if the need arises.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the business Caelan and her name is Julia.

AA Motorcycle did a great job moving my bike from Dallas to Las Vegas. The bike was delivered efficiently without any damage which sounds simple but if you've shipped a bike before you know is not always the case. They showed a lot of flexibility by delivering it to a location which wasn't originally requested when I made the reservations. I would use AA again if I needed to move my bike again in the future.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the business

I had to transport my bike from CA to TN and did not encounter any problems. The bike got there 2 days before the agreement and did not suffer any damages. It was at a fair price, and they had fast and responsive customer service. I would definitely trust them again for long trips like this.

Frequently asked questions

Anchorage motorcycle shipping — FAQ

  • How much does it cost to ship a motorcycle to or from Anchorage, AK?
    Shipping costs vary based on distance, route, and shipping method (non-palletized or palletized). Use our instant online quote tool to get an exact price — no email required. We’ve served customers since 1983 and price competitively for Alaska routes.
  • How long does motorcycle shipping to or from Anchorage take?
    Transit times for Anchorage depend on the origin or destination. Alaska routes typically take longer than the continental US due to routing logistics. Your quote will include an estimated transit window. We coordinate your shipment start to finish and keep you informed throughout.
  • Can I drop off my motorcycle the same day at the Anchorage terminal?
    Yes — same-day drop-off is available at our Anchorage terminal at 209 Post Road, Anchorage, AK 99501. However, you must place your order online first and receive a booking number before arriving. Do not show up without a booking number.
  • What is the difference between non-palletized and palletized motorcycle shipping?
    Non-palletized shipping is our standard method — your motorcycle is secured with straps inside an enclosed freight trailer and rides upright without a pallet. Palletized shipping mounts your motorcycle on a wooden pallet and is ideal for longer distances or added security. Both methods use enclosed trailers; motorcycles are never placed on open car haulers.
  • Do you offer a military discount for Anchorage motorcycle shipping?
    Yes, AA Motorcycle Shipping offers a military discount. Active duty, reserve, and veteran military personnel qualify. Mention your service when calling 1-888-347-1391 or note it in your order, and our team will apply the discount.
  • Do I need to drain the gas tank before shipping my motorcycle from Anchorage?
    For non-palletized shipments, your fuel tank should be no more than 1/4 full. For palletized shipments, the tank must be completely drained and the battery disconnected. These are freight carrier requirements and apply to all shipments including those from Anchorage.
  • Can you ship a motorcycle I just bought online to Anchorage?
    Yes. We frequently ship motorcycles purchased through online auctions and private sales to Anchorage and throughout Alaska. The seller can drop the bike at the nearest AA terminal, and we’ll coordinate delivery to Anchorage or door-to-door to your address.
  • Is door-to-door motorcycle shipping available in Anchorage?
    Yes — door-to-door pickup and delivery is available in Anchorage and surrounding areas. We coordinate pickup at your home, storage facility, or dealer and deliver directly to your specified address. You can also combine door pickup with terminal drop-off, or vice versa, depending on what works best for your situation.
