Before you go booking with a motorcycle shipping company, let us talk to you about Using Non EU hubs to move vehicles for travel purposes.
Many of our customers ask us to move their bikes for them when setting out on a Motorcycle holiday. And thats great! It cuts out all the hum drum of riding your bike all the way from A to B so you can start day one of your holiday on your bike already at the beginning of your classic route.
However, due to Brexit and the myriad other complications that have surfaced these days, we're now looking at some ferociously high costs for clearing vehicles for import into the EU.
If you are travelling with your bike then its a no-brainer. Say you're travelling to Scandinavia to ride some of their breathtaking routes. Instead of us moving your bike to Copenhagen and incurring all the extra charges levied by the current beaurocracy. Why not let us transport your bike to Oslo for a fraction of the cost, where you can pick up your vehicle and ride it over the border.
If the vehicle is being ridden across the border then the extensive paperwork associated with 'importing a stand a lone vehicle' simply doesn't apply. So with only a little added on to your journey you can simply coast over the border without all the headaches that come with importing the motorbike as 'freight' or 'goods'
Of course, if you are selling your vehicle and don't intend to accompany your motorcycle then this doesn't apply and unfortunately we have to incur the additional charges associated with a UK to EU vehicle import. Similarly if you have bought a vehicle overseas, and it is not viable for you to have the vehicle dropped off or collected at a Non European Union hub, then we will have to take the financial hit. Even so rest assured we do this all the time so we will help and advise on the clearance documentation and protocols.
But if you are able to make your move via. a Non EU hub, when you weigh up the alternatives I'm sure you'll agree that its a great idea. Below we have put together a list of popular Motorcycle holiday desinations travelling from the UK to Europe, in a table, along with our recommended Non EU hubs to use to move vehicles, as painlessly and cost effectively as possible.
