How do I bid on an oversized item?

If you encounter a message such as:

  • “This is a large vehicle that may be difficult to transport.”
  • “Instant quote is not available for oversized vehicles.”

It means that not all shipping companies can accommodate oversized vehicles or items. Transporting these larger items typically requires a specialty shipping company equipped for heavy-duty loads, which usually involves higher transportation costs compared to standard shipping.

Can RideSafely Help with Oversized Vehicle Shipping?

Yes. If you’d like RideSafely’s logistics team to handle transportation for an oversized item, please contact us in advance to request a custom shipping quote.

How to Place a Bid on an Oversized Item

To bid on a large or oversized vehicle through RideSafely, please follow these steps:

  1. Click the button labeled:
    “I Want to Bid on This Item Anyway.”
  2. Review the Heavy-Duty Bidding Authorization Form carefully.
  3. Confirm Each Required Checkbox to acknowledge the following terms:
    • I understand that transporting a heavy-duty item will generally incur high transportation costs.
    • I will have to arrange my own transportation and loading to receive this item.
    • I understand that after I place my bid, I will not be able to cancel the transaction if my bid is successful.

Important Notes

  • Oversized vehicles may include commercial trucks, buses, RVs, construction equipment, and specialty vehicles.
  • Transportation costs for these items are not included in your RideSafely purchase unless explicitly arranged through our logistics team.
