Comments: 

These people were by far the most helpful and flexible among all the cargo companies in Buenos Aires, Ezeiza Airport. I could not get any info on shipping in the downtown offices, so if you are in Buenos Aires to ship you MC, go directly to the airport.

To reduce your shipping costs:
* dismount front tire with fender, handle bar with mirrors, and side+tail bags/boxes to reduce height, length and width ==> you'll pay the minimum possible by volume.
* if you can crate, the bike, because then they can put other things on the top of the motorcycle crate. Ask around for scrap wood, nails and hammer - I'm sure they have. In this case you will pay most likely for the weight of the motorcycle (Make sure that you will pay only for the weight of the motorcycle and not for the crate, too.)
