We don’t just sell motorcycles here at Iconic – we try to get involved with all aspects of the sport, including transportation.
Typically, LTL (less than truckload) carriers are much faster than motorcycle-specific shippers, however, they do not like transporting bikes as crates are prone to breaking, and damage to their contents is (unfortunately) common. As such, we designed our innovative solution to make shipment safe, secure, and efficient.
The MotoBox is machined right here in the USA from aluminum. Even with its relatively low weight, it’s built to a much higher strength standard and will be much more structurally sound. To prolong each box’s shelf life, we also designed them such that each panel can be replaced if damaged.
Our MotoBoxes will be stored at the distribution centers of our LTL and Air Freight partners. Because of their built-in receivers, they can be stacked up to two units high when filled and up to six units high when empty.
Beyond their improved structural integrity, MotoBoxes also provide far more peace of mind than your typical wooden crate. They feature a clamshell design in which the side panel and ramp lock the roof into place via a series of channels.
While the MotoBox is an ever-evolving concept, we’ve outfitted our current fleet with unique features to make each unit optimal for motorcycle transport, which include:
- Wheel chock
- E-track for tie-downs and accessory mounting
- Low ramp for easy loading
- Access panel for reaching tie-down points
- Keyed locks for security
- Forklift slots
- Additional space for gear storage (as a reminder, the Track version is eight inches wider)
- Mounting points for caster wheels
- Inside latches for security
- Blocks for support
- Reinforcements for added strength
- Rubber feet for padding
- Gas struts to keep lid open
- Grab handle to facilitate easy closure
We’re excited about the MotoBoxes as dedicated motorcycle shippers can take weeks to get bikes delivered. LTL carriers are typically able to make deliveries in 1-2 days from state to state and 5-7 days cross-country. No more waiting for your prized possession!
