When I had my Buell shipped, I posted it up on uship.com and the shippers bid on the job. I had a good experience with it.
Anyone know of a good cheap motorcycle shipping company that will pick up and drop off from door to door? Relatively cheap?

Def possibility. How far was it and how much?
I had it shipped from Wausau, WI to Lewiston, NY (~836 miles) and was $475 if I recall.
I used Uship as well and was pleased. It cost me $189 to ship from Los Angeles to Phoenix. Considering airfare was $150, I think the price was reasonable. I did have a bid that was $25 less, but the delivery times were a couple of weeks later.
roger on uship.com figure on getting several bids that all average approx. 50 cents per mile. make sure whomever you choose is insured and/or bonded to do the work.
Alright posted on uship. They suggested 358$. Reasonable I thought for Washington to San Diego.
Seems like I'm late the punch, but I use a motorcycle-specific transporter. They only ship motorcycles. Some of those other independent drivers might strap it onto a trailer and go, whereas a legit motorcycle shipper will bring a custom pallet on wheels and strap it down with lambswool. I'd rather pay $100-$200 to know my bike is safe and isn't just covered by the typical 10-cents per pound insurance coverage. FreightCenter partners with 3 major motorcycle shippers that can ship by air and truck. All are licensed, bonded and provide the safest way to transport your bike. They just shipped my bike to Sturgis from South FL for $595. Arrived on time and in the exact condition it was in when it left the parking lot. Save this link for next time: Motorcycle Shipping
If you're a member of the AMA, then you have an additional discount from some shipping companies.
Vicsologil. Look him up. He only ships bikes and shipped my vintage Indian from sw mo to orange co cali for $225. Insured and all that crap. He was out front before I left for work at four am. Delivered to my brothers front door too.
