Arizona to New Hampshire Motorcycle Shipping Rates by Bike Type
A standard cruiser or sport bike from Phoenix to Concord costs about $850 to $1,175 on an open carrier, or about $1,200 to $1,650 enclosed.
Distance sets most of the price. Trucks bound for the Northeast often unload in the Boston area, so southern New Hampshire is easier to reach than the mountains.
A dresser such as a Street Glide can add $50 to $100. For a trike or sidecar, add $150 to $300. If the bike does not run, say so up front, because it must be winched on.
Season changes the price. June is busy because of Laconia Motorcycle Week, and fall color tourism fills roads. Booking three weeks ahead and leaving the pickup window open gives you more carriers to choose from. Take a look at our money-saving tips for further savings.

From the Coast to the Notches
I-93 runs down the middle of the state. Entering from Massachusetts at Salem, it passes Manchester and Concord and then goes north into the White Mountains. I-293 loops around Manchester. At Bow, just south of Concord, I-89 branches west toward Vermont and joins I-91 at White River Junction. I-95 touches only the seacoast near Portsmouth.
Portsmouth is the odd one out. It sits on the coast a short drive from the Maine line, so a carrier already working a Maine pickup is close to the route.
The White Mountains need patience. North of Concord, I-93 climbs into the mountains and the roads beyond are two lanes. Lincoln, Conway and nearby towns can be tricky for a tractor-trailer in winter. The Kancamagus Highway, NH-112, is about 32 miles from Lincoln to Conway and a favorite fall ride, but carriers stay on interstates, so a pickup near it likely means meeting in Lincoln or Conway.
In the Lakes Region, the road that matters is US Route 3. It runs through Laconia, Weirs Beach and Meredith, so in rally week expect delays anywhere along it.
How Quotes Work When You Ship a Motorcycle to New Hampshire
You don't have to call company after company. One request goes out to the carriers that run this route, and the offers come back to you.
1. Send one request
Fill out the quote form at the top of this page, or call 1-800-590-6492 any hour of the day. Give us your pickup and delivery cities, the year, make and model of your bike, and the date you want it picked up.
2. Carriers respond
We pass your request to carriers that run the Arizona to New Hampshire route. You can receive up to ten free quotes without calling them one at a time.
3. Compare the offers
Look at price, pickup date, and whether the carrier offers open or enclosed transport. You can look up any company you're considering on the FMCSA SAFER system.
4. Choose your company
You pick the company you want to work with. Ask that company about its insurance coverage, deposit, and payment terms before you commit.
How Your Motorcycle Is Loaded and Secured for the Trip
A good driver loads a motorcycle upright. The front wheel goes into a chock so it can't move, and soft straps go around solid points like the frame or the lower triple clamp. The straps are tightened enough to hold the bike but not so much that they bottom out the forks. Hooks stay off your bars, levers and paint.
Enclosed trailers add a roof and walls, and a trip from the desert to New England meets sun, rain and plenty of road grit. Owners of custom paint and vintage bikes often pick enclosed for exactly that reason. Look at the bike with the driver and read the report slowly before you sign it. Keep both until the bike is delivered in New Hampshire.
Arizona to New Hampshire Motorcycle Shipping Challenges & Tips
New Hampshire is simple in the south and slower in the hills.
Rally Week in June
If your bike is going to the Lakes Region in mid-June, assume trailers are booked and roads are slow. Elsewhere in the state, the job is ordinary.
Mountain Snow
A storm on I-93 can park a trailer for a day, and mountain towns may take longer. Give the carrier some room.
Notch and Village Roads
A tractor-trailer struggles on the two-lane roads of the White Mountains, so plan on a lot in Lincoln, Conway or another larger town.
Tip: Heading to Laconia Motorcycle Week?
The event runs about nine days each June around Weirs Beach on Lake Winnipesaukee, and it began in 1916. Ask for quotes two to three weeks ahead, pick a meeting point away from the strip such as a lot in Laconia or Meredith, and book the trip home when you book the trip in.
Tip: Moving to Portsmouth Naval Shipyard?
The shipyard sits in Kittery, Maine, across the Piscataqua River, with Portsmouth the closest New Hampshire town. A move on orders leaves little slack, so request quotes once you have a report date, and ask each carrier about a military discount.
Tip: Prepare Your Motorcycle
Wash the bike, pull off saddlebags and mounts, and run the tank to a quarter or less. Turn the alarm off, photograph all sides with the date, and record any leaks. A steep driveway or narrow country road can stop a trailer, so name a lot in town as a backup. Our prep guide explains each step in detail.
Arizona to New Hampshire Motorcycle Shipping Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to ship a motorcycle from Arizona to New Hampshire?
Most Arizona to New Hampshire shipments take 7-10 days once the bike is on the truck. Allow a few days to arrange the pickup, and about one to two weeks until delivery.
How much does it cost to ship a motorcycle to New Hampshire from Arizona?
A standard cruiser or sport bike from Phoenix to Concord runs about $850 to $1,175 on an open carrier and about $1,200 to $1,650 enclosed. Actual prices depend on your bike, dates and cities.
Is open or enclosed transport better for this route?
Open is fine for most bikes. Enclosed shields a classic or custom bike from road salt and winter weather. The extra cost is roughly $350 to $475.
Where in New Hampshire do carriers deliver?
Manchester, Nashua, Concord and Portsmouth see the most bikes. Mountain and Lakes Region towns are served too, with a wider window and a meeting point.
Is it cheaper to ship to Boston and ride north?
Sometimes. Boston gets many trucks and the ride north takes about an hour or two, so compare quotes to both. Ask carriers to price the New Hampshire drop and the Boston drop.
How should I prepare my motorcycle for shipping from Arizona?
Clean the bike, lift off soft bags and electronics, and let the fuel drop to about a quarter. Date your photos from all sides, and report leaks or starting trouble.
Should I ride my motorcycle from Arizona to New Hampshire or ship it?
The ride is about 2,620 miles from Phoenix to Concord, which most riders cover in four or five long days. That is a long stretch of highway, plus fuel and hotels. If you only need the bike in New Hampshire, shipping it and flying often wins.
Do I need to crate my motorcycle for this trip?
Typically not. Open trailers and enclosed ones both haul bikes to New Hampshire without a crate. If you want one, expect roughly $150 to $400 extra.
Is door-to-door motorcycle delivery available from Arizona to New Hampshire?
Usually yes. Arizona pickups are straightforward. In New Hampshire, a narrow country road or steep driveway can stop a trailer, and a lot in town is the fix.
Can I call for a quote at any hour?
Yes, any hour of the day. 1-800-590-6492 is staffed around the clock, and the form can return up to ten carriers.
