Popular Tennessee motorcycle shipping routes
Tennessee motorcycle shipping services
Choose the service that fits your situation. All options include start-to-finish coordination by our team.
Door-to-Door
We pick up at your home, office, or storage unit in Tennessee and deliver directly to your destination — no terminal visit required. The most convenient option for most customers.
Terminal Combinations
Drop your bike at our Nashville terminal or have it delivered to a terminal near your destination. Mix and match to balance cost and convenience — door-to-terminal or terminal-to-door.
Terminal-to-Terminal
Drop off in Nashville and pick up at a terminal near your destination. This is typically the most economical option when you have flexibility on pickup and drop-off.
Non-palletized vs. palletized motorcycle shipping
We offer two shipping methods. Both travel inside enclosed freight trailers — your motorcycle is never on an open car hauler.
Non-Palletized (Standard)
Your motorcycle is loaded upright, secured with straps, and rides inside an enclosed freight trailer. This is our standard method — widely available and cost-effective for most bikes.
Palletized (Premium)
Your motorcycle is mounted on a wooden pallet and crated for additional protection. Recommended for high-value, vintage, or low-clearance bikes, or for customers who want maximum security during transit.

Why Tennessee riders choose AA Motorcycle Shipping
AA Motorcycle Shipping has been coordinating motorcycle shipments since 1983. Over four decades, we’ve built a network of 47 terminals coast to coast — including our Nashville, TN location — so your bike always has a reliable waypoint close to home. We don’t own trucks, and we’re not a lead-gen company that passes your information to the lowest bidder. We coordinate every shipment ourselves, from the first quote to final delivery.
Tennessee riders ship for all kinds of reasons: a relocation from Nashville to a new city, a cross-country road trip where you want to ride one way and ship the other, or the purchase of a bike from a dealer in another state. Whatever your situation, our team handles the logistics — you just hand over the keys. Our Nashville terminal at 5014 Harding Place makes drop-off and pickup straightforward for riders anywhere in Middle Tennessee.
We’ve built our reputation on transparency and follow-through. You get a real price upfront — no bait-and-switch, no hidden fees after booking. If you have questions during transit, a real person answers when you call. And with over 3,000 verified reviews averaging 4.7 stars, the track record speaks for itself.

“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.”
Tennessee motorcycle shipping — frequently asked questions
-
How much does it cost to ship a motorcycle to or from Tennessee?
Rates depend on the pickup and delivery locations, the distance, and the shipping method you choose. Based on routes through our Nashville terminal, prices typically range from around $550 for shorter routes (such as Nashville to Dallas) to $1,055 or more for long cross-country trips (such as Nashville to Seattle). Use the quote form above for an instant price specific to your route — no email required.
-
How long does motorcycle shipping to or from Tennessee take?
Transit time depends on distance. Shorter routes (500–900 miles) typically take 3–7 days. Long cross-country routes (2,000+ miles) generally take about two weeks. Pickup scheduling, route availability, and delivery address all affect the timeline. We provide estimated transit times when you get your quote.
-
What is the difference between palletized and non-palletized motorcycle shipping?
Non-palletized is our standard method: your motorcycle is loaded upright and secured with straps inside an enclosed freight trailer. Palletized means your bike is mounted on a wooden pallet and crated for additional protection — a good choice for high-value, vintage, or low-clearance motorcycles. Both methods use enclosed trailers; motorcycles are never shipped on open car haulers.
-
Do you have a terminal in Tennessee?
Yes. Our Nashville terminal is located at 5014 Harding Place, Nashville, TN 37211. You can drop off or pick up your motorcycle there, or we can arrange door-to-door service anywhere in Tennessee. Visit the Nashville terminal page for details.
-
Is a military discount available for Tennessee motorcycle shipping?
Yes. We offer a military discount for active duty service members, veterans, and military families. Mention it when you request your quote or when you call us at 1-888-347-1391.
-
Does the gas tank need to be empty before shipping?
We recommend keeping your fuel level at one-quarter tank or less before shipping. A nearly empty tank reduces weight and meets freight safety requirements. You do not need to drain the tank completely.
-
Can you ship a motorcycle I bought online from a dealer or private seller in another state?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons people use our service. If you purchased a bike from a seller in another state, we can coordinate pickup directly from the seller and deliver to your door in Tennessee — or to our Nashville terminal if you prefer. The seller does not need to be present for pickup in most cases.
-
Is door-to-door service available anywhere in Tennessee?
Yes. We provide door-to-door motorcycle shipping throughout Tennessee, including Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, Clarksville, Murfreesboro, and surrounding areas. If you’re in a rural area, we’ll confirm serviceability when you get your quote.
