Shipping Agent in NYC

WW sails out of Elizabeth, NJ ,,
I have used KEUSA, in same town,, very professional. He learnt a great deal, when I shipped my Harley on WW to Bremerhaven in June of 2011.
Ask for Tony, General Manager. 609-860-3070 / 3094
Korea Express also has agents in major ports,,,
Also he will drive you to the US customs,, bit far away ,, to declare ,, other agents will make you walk or get a cab. After you deliver your bike he will drop you off at a NJ Transit bus to wherever you want to go,, good luck.
Mention, Mr.Park, from Korea,, aka Seoul Joe

I used Schumacher Cargo to ship from NY to Uk in April this year. Very good, easy and cheap in comparison (I got around 5 quotes).

Just google 'schumacher'. They are in New Jersey.

Replies at last!

Thanks to all for your replies.

Apologies for not replying sooner but I made my original posting whilst in Colombia and so shipping from there to the US was my priority.
Now I'm in the US and am looking to make arrangements for shipping to Germany.

seouljoe - email sent.

mafra - I've emailed your contact.

garmei - I've emailed Schumacher

HILL SHIPPING - No, Germany.

Does anyone have any experience of collecting a bike in Germany (Bremerhaven in particular) that is NOT registered in an EU country?

Cheers

Adam
