They apparently only pick up on certain days where my seller was located which made his scheduling a day off to have them load the bike very easy. Other haulers give you a 2-3 day window which is tough if you don't have a flexible schedule.
The trip from CA to IN took only a week. Maybe I got lucky but maybe not. Their tracking shows progress between their hubs. It is not GPS precise but you do know how it is progressing fairly often.
Scheduling the delivery was also great. I got a call with two day's notice when it would be in town. Then I got a call from the driver that morning with an approximate time and we coordinated the exact drop off point. And the driver was fantastic. He knew bikes, and had a lot of experience hauling them so he knew exactly what he was doing. The bike was strapped to a fabricated skid with good hard points. The straps were properly located and didn't scratch anything. I was really pleased to see this.
I paid a little bit more for Federal but because of the structure of how they pick up and deliver, I was happy to pay more. I got excellent communication, predictability, reliability, and great service for those few extra dollars. I would not hesitate to recommend Federal to anyone. read less

Fast. Efficient. Friendly. Helpful. 100% positive experience. Thrilled. Many thanks to Federal Motorcycle Transport.

I had my motorcycle shipped from Texas recently. I want to thank Tessa who facilitated the whole thing an the movers for their service! I will be using them for future motorcycle shipping needs! Professional and thoughtful! Cheers

Although a snowstorm delayed pick-up, my shipment still arrived on time. Communication was lacking at times, but my item was delivered in good shape, without hassle.

California, Connecticut and Idaho to Chicago, each time my bike has remained on the pallet, moved across the country quickly, and arrived in mint condition. Tracking the progress of the truck across the country in the dead of winter somehow keeps me from worrying too much. That and Judy is very easy to work with. read less

They gave me a great price, customer service was amazing, and they made sure to give constant communication with me. My motorcycle was transported safely, quickly, and even though I had to makr changes, they worked with me on it and we're very accommodating to my needs. I was able to redirect my motorcycle the to a warehouse to pick up the morning before it was to be delivered to me. The workers were super helpful and very knowledgeable in unloading the bike and we're very careful as well. Definitely will use them again in the future. They were a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them! read less

The bike arrived in good condition, strapped down to a pallet just about the way I would have done it. I received multiple tracking updates throughout it's journey, and was notified immediately once it was received in the warehouse in Atlanta. Definitely recommended, I will use Federal MC Transports again. read less

Top notch and pain free process of shipping! My bike arrived ahead of schedule and absolutely intact. Judy is very efficient and a joy to deal with. We even shared a few laughs. I will soon ship again with Federal.

I originally started looking for transport a couple of years ago and spoke with Mary W. at Federal for a quote. She was through, professional and very helpful in understanding what the move would involve. The quote provided was competitive but still the least expensive of the four that I gathered. The move didn't happen at that time but I was finally ready this month to ship the scooter. When I called back I was delighted to find Mary there and helpful as ever. She even had my quote still on file so all the information was ready to go. After discussing the new details of the locations for pickup and drop off I was delighted to find the price was less than the previous quote. (I checked back with the other companies I had called and they were all much more expensive.)

At the time of pickup I received a call an hour in advance and they movers arrived exactly on time. I didn't have to worry about staying around all day waiting. Pickup was efficient and courteous with the movers documenting any damage so I had a thorough record. All through the transport process I received updates as to where the scooter was actually located so I felt comfortable that Federal was totally on top of things. For arrival - they again gave an advance call and arrived on time. Offloading was handled very well.

This was a great experience and I highly recommend Federal Motorcycle Transport. From my first conversation with Mary in the office, to the individual movers - every step was professional and courteous. read less

I didn't expect to see it for weeks but it was delivered well before promised. The driver was great, called the day before and was right on time. Bike was in perfect shape and well cared for in the truck. And no crate to deal with. Bike was secured in the nose of the trailer just like I'd carry it myself. Highly recommend! read less

Always a pleasure utilizing Federal for moving my motorcycle. Professional and reliable every time. They have helped launch me on world wide trips, and they get it done.

So impressed! So impressed! I have been utilizing the Federal Companies (FunTransport) to ship motorcycles between Maryland & Las Vegas since 2007 - probably 7-8 times total. Never had any issues. The customer service is always outstanding at every turn.

My bike will be loaded into a container on February 23rd so Judy told me it would arrive in Fife by February 11th. The bike was picked up January 22nd, just when she said it would. The bike made it to the dealership on Friday, January 31st. All along the bike's route, I received notices of its location and that was much appreciated. Thank you, Judy! read less
