Common motorcycle shipping routes to and from Utah
We ship motorcycles between Utah and every other state. Here are some of the most frequently requested routes through our Salt Lake City terminal.
Utah motorcycle shipping services
We coordinate four shipping arrangements to fit your schedule and budget. All options travel via enclosed freight trailer — motorcycles are never placed on open car haulers.
Door-to-Door
We pick up your motorcycle at your home, office, or storage unit in Utah and deliver it directly to your destination address. Maximum convenience — you never have to visit a terminal.
Terminal-to-Door
Drop your motorcycle off at our Salt Lake City terminal and we deliver it to any address at the destination. Saves on pickup fees if you’re local to the terminal.
Door-to-Terminal
We pick up at your Utah address and deliver to the nearest terminal at the destination city. Best when the recipient is close to one of our 47 terminal locations nationwide.
Terminal-to-Terminal
Drop off at our Salt Lake City terminal and pick up at the destination terminal. The most affordable option when both locations are near a terminal.
Non-palletized vs. palletized motorcycle shipping
AA Motorcycle Shipping offers two methods. Both travel inside enclosed freight trailers — never on open car haulers. The right choice depends on your budget and your bike’s value.
Non-Palletized (Standard)
Your motorcycle is rolled directly into an enclosed freight trailer, secured with straps, and transported alongside other freight. This is the most common and cost-effective method. Recommended for standard street bikes, cruisers, and tourers.
Palletized (Premium)
Your motorcycle is drained of fuel, mounted to a wooden pallet, fully crated, and shipped as a self-contained unit inside an enclosed trailer. Provides maximum protection against movement and contact. Recommended for high-value, vintage, or restored motorcycles.

Utah motorcycle shipping you can count on
Utah riders deal with an unusual combination of extremes — harsh winters in the Wasatch Front, remote desert destinations, and high-altitude mountain passes that can make riding impractical or impossible for months at a time. That means more Utahns need to ship their motorcycles than riders in milder states, whether it’s relocating a bike to warmer climates for the winter, bringing one back in the spring, or transporting a bike purchased from out of state. Since 1983, AA Motorcycle Shipping has been coordinating reliable enclosed freight transport for exactly these situations.
Our Salt Lake City terminal at 2571 West 2590 S. serves as the hub for Utah shipments. Whether you’re in the metro area, heading out from Provo, or picking up a bike in Ogden, we coordinate door-to-door pickup and delivery across the entire state. We’re not a lead-generation broker — we don’t sell your information to multiple carriers. We coordinate your shipment directly through Central Dispatch and manage it from first call to final delivery.
Motorcycles shipped through AA Motorcycle Shipping travel in enclosed freight trailers, not on open car haulers. This matters for Utah riders shipping to and from the Southwest, California, or across the country, where road debris, weather, and long stretches of open highway can take a toll on an exposed bike. Non-palletized freight keeps your motorcycle protected inside a sealed trailer the entire way. For high-value or restored bikes, our palletized service provides an additional layer of protection with full crating before loading.
With over 3,000 verified reviews and a 4.7-star average, our track record speaks for itself. We offer military discounts upon request and provide instant online quotes with no email required. If you have questions about shipping to or from Utah — including transit times, terminal options, or how to prepare your bike — call us at 1-888-347-1391. Our team is here to walk you through every step.

-
What is non-palletized motorcycle shipping?
Non-palletized is the standard shipping method. Your motorcycle is rolled into an enclosed freight trailer, secured with straps, and transported inside the trailer alongside other freight. Motorcycles are never placed on open car haulers — they always ride in an enclosed trailer.
-
What is palletized motorcycle shipping and when should I choose it?
Palletized shipping is the premium option. Your motorcycle is drained of fuel, mounted to a wooden pallet, crated, and shipped as a fully enclosed unit inside a freight trailer. This provides maximum protection and is ideal for vintage bikes, custom builds, or high-value motorcycles where extra security is worth the additional cost.
-
Does AA Motorcycle Shipping have a terminal in Utah?
Yes. Our Salt Lake City terminal is located at 2571 West 2590 S., Salt Lake City, UT 84119. If you drop off your motorcycle at this terminal, you avoid the door pickup fee and may qualify for our most affordable terminal-to-terminal rates. Visit the Salt Lake City terminal page for details.
-
Is there a military discount for Utah motorcycle shipping?
Yes. We offer a military discount upon request for active duty military, veterans, and military families. Simply mention your military status when requesting a quote or placing your order. You can also call us directly at 1-888-347-1391.
-
Does my gas tank need to be drained before shipping?
For non-palletized shipments, you do not need to fully drain the tank, but we recommend keeping fuel at no more than one-quarter full. For palletized shipments, the fuel tank must be completely drained prior to pickup. Our team will review preparation requirements with you when you book.
-
Can you ship a motorcycle I bought online or at an auction in Utah?
Yes. We regularly ship motorcycles for online buyers and auction purchasers. We can coordinate pickup directly from the seller or dealer anywhere in the country and deliver to your address in Utah — or pick up in Utah and deliver to you wherever you are. Just provide the pickup contact and address when you place your order.
