Giga
Quick answer
How does motorcycle transport work with Giga Removals?
We move one motorcycle at a time, in a van. Before you book, we check the bike, whether it runs, and the access at both ends.
More about this service
This is vehicle transport, not a courier service. Send photos of both sides of the bike, both postcodes and any steering or brake problems, and we'll plan how to load it.
The price comes from our hourly van-and-crew rates plus one-way mileage. Anything specific to your bike is confirmed in writing before you book.
For other awkward items, see single-item transport, man and van and our other services.
