Question 5 Harleys from FL to Montana round trip

Some retired fireman are looking to ship 5 bikes to Montana from the SE. Would be a round trip and not to tight of a schedule. Anyone here ship bikes or have any ideas?

Thanks

Personally speaking,with the special handling involved, the fireman couldnt pay me enough, no such thing as easy money handling those things..........NO thanks

Tell them to go to Penske and rent a medium box truck, Prob be cheaper and that way if any get damaged its their own fault.

Plus, any REAL Harley man would ride the trip instead of being a trailer queen lol

I'm sure they are Roadkings, Ultras or god forbid a Gullwing lol....but they are like riding on air. I've been from my home in Chicago to Daytona twice, Sturgis once and Maine once on a Street Bob, and to the Grand Canyon last summer on my rigid (I should have been wiser here lol).... but to each their own.

Yeah, with the cost of fuel, it would have been well over $2k just for that, then add your mileage rate and it would not have been cost effective at all.
