    Default Spyder Shipper

    Hey Spyderlovers, I'm looking for any information about private carriers to deliver a Spyder from NY to TN. Any info on reliable carriers would be appreciated. Thanks Dennis

    Why not ride there?
    Ours is a red, black and chrome 2017 F3 Limited. Bought new in 2/2019. The avatar is my first bike back in 1952, a Simplex Servi-Cycle. Photo taken at the Barber Museum.

    I used Uship (MA to PA). It is done by a bid system and is negotiable. You will get your best price if you are flexible on your arrival date (don't need it for 2-4 weeks).

    Good Luck!

    I have used Wolverine in the past and that company is outstanding.

    I can see that when a family is involved. Just plugged in to MS Streets and trips. About the longest distance it could be is around 1400 miles from the NE corner of NY to the SW corner of TN. That's three days ride for a lot of folks and if you are having to battle cooler temps in the mornings, it could be four days. Good luck finding a shipper.

    I have used Uship for a Spyder, 4 wheelers and tractors. As said in an earlier post, it is a bid process and negotiable. In your bid specs you are able to set the parameters of the move, including a delivery day. All of the times I used Uship, delivery was made within 4 hours of the “window” I set. Good luck with whomever, whatever shipper you choose.

    Thanks for all of the suggestions.
    I have contacted a company "Chaparral Logistics" that have enclosed trailers,
    are bonded and have experience moving Spyders.
    They moved one for a friend of mine and he was very satisfied .
    I'll probably go with them if my plans work out.

    How was your experience with Chaparral Logistics? Looking to transport a 2020 Can Am Spyder from Columbus, GA to Orlando, FL
