Shipments done by Travellers

Excellent service from Team Work Cargo! Over 1000 USD (!) cheaper than Eagle Exports (often recommended on the web) and no problem to crate 2 Husky 701 enduro LR in 1 crate (about 2.2m³, 500kgs). Eagle Export was greedy and just lied to our faces. They swore 2 bikes in 1 crate was absolutely forbidden and he had checked with the airlines... NOT!

Team Work Cargo allowed us to build the crate to our preferences (compact, light yet strong), together with their carpenter. They are really helpful, responsive and keep their promises. No hidden costs, perfect service. They know their business! Be prepared for cash payment though as Nepal limits the weekly withdrawal with credit cards at ATM's so it can take a while and multiple cards. USD and EUR are also accepted at the daily official exchange rate. Obviously full payment comes before shipment.

3 friends of ours also shipped with them (to Dubai and France), all totally hassle free and about 600 USD per bike cheaper than Eagle Exports. This was by far the easiest shipment we have ever done, and we have done quite a few so far. Malaysian side was super easy and very efficient. Note that only the first 36 hrs of storage in KL are free. Then daily rate of approx 0.07 USD per kg for 3 days, after that 0.23USD per kg. Make sure you arrange paperwork for the Malaysian side with Mr Cheong (ISP and insurance): Whatsapp +60 11-1235 9976. He did it for us in a few hours. We didn't have to show these documents when getting the bikes though but not sure whether this was normal or they just forgot about it. You definitely need them on the road and when crossing borders though.

There is the Tune Aeropolis hotel, in KL close to the airport and at 2 mins walk from Cargo Village ( customs and MAScargo warehouse). First get a free entry permit at SCAF office, first floor. A few minutes walk from Cargo village. Then to customs, then warehouse, then final check by customs. We were allowed to get our bikes out of the crate at the warehouse and leave the crate behind.

We shipped 2 BMW R1200GS (the price listed is for ONE bike) from Kathmandu to Kuala Lumpur.

The entire process was quick and painless, the crating was efficient and the shipment took 5 days.

The only suggestion is to bring tools at the receiving airport because nobody is gonna help you unpacking your bike and dismantling the crates is not super easy without proper tools.

Good contact. Good communication. No problem at all.

The  bike was an old Africa Twin 650cc with luggages. 377kg with the wooden box.

Suraj has a lot of mixed reviews online. I was very cautious of him as a result and slightly paranoid about everything he offered, but it all seemed to check out. Price seemed about right to get the bike to where I wanted, and he took care of everything on the customs and legal side (that's what you pay for).

My bike was 140 kg + gear + crate, which totalled about 250 kg.

The measurements for the crate were slightly off but we got it in ok, and the bike arrived a couple of days later in KL, having first flown to Bangkok. Note that I didn't have to do anything for the bike in Bangkok, it came straight to KL as far as I was concerned.

Be aware that when the bike arrives in KL you will have to go to MasKargo at the airport to claim it. This can take a long time as there are various security procedures and long distances to walk since you don't have your bike yet! The first 30 hours of storage is free but from 30 hours to 72 hours there is a holding charge of RM0.30/kg/day, which increases to RM1/kg/day after 72 hours.

Breakdown of quote as below:

2. Air waybill fee: Npr400/ shipment
3. Airline DGR fee: Npr9000/shipment
4. Nepal custom wages : Npr 3500/bike
5. Crate charge : Npr 8000/bike
6. Our service charge: 9999/ bike

In October 2016 we shipped our two DR650SE (separate crates) from Kathmandu to Kuala Lumpur by air freight with http://www.eagleexportcargo.com/. Very proffesional and highly recomended. One day the bikes were meassured in order to build the crate walls before we got to the airport. Second day it took us 3hrs to take the wheels out and pack the bikes. You could see that it surely wasn't first bikes they shipped. :) Costs for two bikes was 1870 USD. It may be slightly higher than half of it for one bike as we split dangerous goods and waybill fee between two bikes.

Clearance was very easy on Malaysian side. Took a taxi from KLIA2 to MAS Cargo terminal (42MYR), got security passes to enter the terminal, paid terminal fee (for 2 crates) 137MYR, assembled the bikes, cleared them and drove away. :) We have used CdP as we were told it will be smoother and faster but it is possible to do it wothout carnet. Just watch the customs officer stamp your CdP as they did a mistake on one of ours, I just think they don't see it very often there.
