If you are planning to shift from one place to another and looking for a cost effective way to transport a bike then this blog is for you. In this blog, we will discuss different and best ways to transport your bike. The first way you can hire professional bike transport services, the second way you can book bike parcel services and lastly you can relocate your bike by yourself. The driving bike is not safe and secure most and it is very risky and a lot of challenges involved in this process. Here we will briefly discuss the ways.


  • Insurance

Before choosing any bike carrier services it is advisable to know more about the insurance coverage a vehicle shipping company provides. Ask them what type of insurance cover they provide to their clients whether they provide transit insurance or all-inclusive insurance. Also, ask them if any type of damage takes place during transit what is the company policy to handle damages in the transit. Ask these questions before signing the deal with the company, so that if something happens then you can save yourself from financial loss.


  • Hire professional Bike transport Services

If you want to relocate your bike and you want to make your bike relocation cost effective then you can hire a reliable and top bike transport company. All professional bike transport companies will take care of the complete process from start to end and they will give you a hassle-free and damage-free experience. They will pack your bike with high-quality packing material, they will carefully load and unload the bike with appropriate equipment and they timely deliver the bike to your doorstep.  But they consider many factors while estimating the charges like a model, size, weight, packing material cost, road tax, distance, and many more things. So this way is not cheap.


  • Bike Shifting by Train

Bike transportation is one of the most popular and convenient ways to transport a bike or two-wheeler vehicle from one city to another through the Indian Railways. Railways also provide bike relocation services by their luggage trains or by parcel. These trains are specially designed to carry goods and luggage from one part of the country. These trains are specially used for long-distance transportation of luggage. You can also carry your bike while travelling on the same train as a parcel. Both are having different procedures. This is the cheapest and economical way to transport your bike. 

 

By Bike Parcel

· Firstly you need to go to the railway station.

·  Then look for the parcel counter and do some inquiry about the bike parcel procedure and its charges. It is always better to know things in advance. If you are carrying the document then it's ok, otherwise, you need to revisit the railway station for the booking.

· The next step is to submit the document like the RC of the bike and your ID proof. Always carry the original and copy of the documents. Original requires verification and copy you need to submit.

·  After submitting the document you need to pack your bike. You can do it yourself or you can hire some agent who will do the packing of your bike. The minimum cost will be Rs 300 and it depends on what type of packing material you are using for the packing of the bike.

· Now your bike is ready for the journey, you just need to fill a parcel from where all the details you need to write like the recipient & address, the cost of the parcel you are sending, the bike’s engine, and the chassis number.

· Now deposit your bike in the parcel luggage office and don't forget to take a receipt of the bike because without this receipt your bike will not be delivered.

By luggage

· First, visit the railway station with documents like RC, ID proof, etc., and also carry train reservation tickets.

· Go to the luggage office and fill the bike transportation form and submit your bike. Make sure your bike is properly packed. After submitting the bike, take the receipt and keep it safe with you.

·  Then Wait for your train. When the train arrives make sure your bike is getting loaded to the same train. So that the bike will be transported along with you on the same train.

·  After reaching your destination, go to the luggage office. Show the original ticket and the luggage receipt. And take the delivery of the bike.

 

  • Bike Transport By Road

In this, you need to bike shifting from one place to another. This is a very risky way because you need to travel your bike for hours and days. In this way, there are more chances of damage and losses. So this process is not advisable. But this process involves risk and this process is advisable for short distances.
