Post Shipping Ural South Africa to South America August 2017

Looking for a recommended company to ship a Ural motorbike and sidecar from South Africa (Cape Town or Durban) or Namibia (Walvis Bay) to South America (East coast, not too fussy where).

We live in Zambia and will ride down to South Africa in July 2017 and ship in August, but somewhat flexible. Interested in a shared container if anyone is already planning to do that, but any options considered at present.

We presume that air freight would be high for a Ural and also wouldn't mind travelling by sea ourselves if that was possible. However, would consider airfreight if feasible.

My wife and me are also traveling on an Ural sidecar in South America. Are you still around? At the moment we are in Chile going further south. But will change to Argentina and go up again.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
