I can recommend them, they are bikers and they are specialized in transporting bikes. They were extremely efficient and friendly. They are present during the whole process and do all the paperwork. 

The address and map to get to the Terminal in Buenos Aires was accurate and really easy to follow.

They do not have an office. They use the restaurant at the nearby petrol station to handle the payment and a cup of coffee. This is all done after the bike has gone through customs and is on it's way to the waiting to be flown zone, in other words on completion of the transaction.

You can pay in cash or by credit card, Master or Visa. 

I used them in combination with Motofreight   http://www.motofreight.com/  They picked the bike up from British customs, unpacked it and disposed of the packing. They also stored it for a couple of days until I arrived to pick it up. That was what the extra cost was at destination and it was worth it in my case.

Ride safe and have fun.
