Delhi To Porbandar Bike Transport Complete Details: Total Distance, Time, And Why It Varies
Porbandar is the birthplace of Mahatma Gandhi and a coastal port town, and bikes arrive with port, navy and fishing industry staff.
Plan on roughly 1,340 km and 4–6 days on the road. The quoted days start when the vehicle leaves Delhi; pickup usually takes a day before that, and delivery needs a time you agree with the driver. The route normally follows NH48 through Ahmedabad, then NH27 through Rajkot and Jetpur to Porbandar.
| Road distance | About 1,340 km |
|---|---|
| Standard transit | 4–6 days |
| Express transit | 2–4 days |
| Starting price (commuter bike) | ₹5,350 onwards |
| Pickup | Delhi and NCR (Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad) |
| Delivery | Door delivery in Porbandar and nearby areas |
Why the timing changes
Rain in the ghats and on the coast between June and September is the main reason a delivery slips by a day or two.
Besides that, four things move the date more than anything else:
- How often carriers leave for Porbandar. A bike booked on a day when a vehicle is already loading leaves sooner than one that waits for a full load.
- Season. June to September is the slow season for ghat and coastal sections. Winter is generally smooth, apart from morning fog out of Delhi.
- Where you are in the NCR. Pickup from Delhi proper is quickest. If you are in Gurgaon, Noida or Faridabad, mention your sector when you ask for the quote.
- Who receives it. A delivery that needs an RWA letter or gate pass takes longer than one where the driver can park outside and hand over.
How to Transport my Bike from Delhi! - 3 Ways To Transport Your Bike From Delhi To Porbandar
People usually ask which method is best, and the honest answer depends on distance, the bike, and how much you want to handle yourself.
1. Door-to-door by covered carrier
This is the usual choice. The bike is packed at your door, travels in a closed vehicle and is brought to your Porbandar address. Budget ₹5,350 to ₹7,350 for a commuter bike and 4–6 days of transit, and keep your phone on during the trip. Read more on our door-to-door bike transport page.
2. Railway parcel
Possible, but slow. The bike goes by parcel train from a Delhi station, and you collect it at Porbandar. Packing is on you, the tank must be nearly empty, and transit depends on which trains run that week, so it can take longer than a carrier. If the parcel office at Porbandar cannot take two-wheelers, you are stuck, so ask first. See our train vs truck comparison.
3. Ride it yourself
1,340 km is 4 days of riding at a comfortable pace, and 3 nights on the road. Fuel is around ₹2,850 for a commuter bike (about ₹4,250 for a 350cc Royal Enfield). Toll is free for bikes, but hotels, food and a return ticket are not. It works if you want the trip. It does not work if you are in a hurry or the bike is new and still running in.
For most people moving house or job, the covered carrier is the one that makes sense. We handle everything from motorcycles and scooters to Royal Enfield and sports bikes.
Delhi To Porbandar Bike Transport Complete Costs: Know What You’re Really Paying For
No one should pay for a Delhi to Porbandar bike move without seeing the full breakup, so here it is.
| Bike type | Price range (incl. GST) | Delivery |
|---|---|---|
| Scooter / moped (up to 125cc) | ₹4,900 – ₹6,500 | 4–6 days |
| Commuter bike (100–160cc) | ₹5,350 – ₹7,350 | 4–6 days |
| Royal Enfield / cruiser (350–650cc) | ₹6,400 – ₹9,000 | 4–6 days |
| Sports bike (300cc+) | ₹10,150 – ₹14,250 | 4–6 days |
| Superbike (650cc+) | Quoted after we know the exact model | |
Where the money goes (commuter bike, mid-range quote of ₹6,350)
| Item | Approx. amount |
|---|---|
| Line-haul freight (Delhi to Porbandar) | ₹4,000 |
| Loading, strapping and standard wrap | ₹650 |
| Door pickup and door delivery | ₹750 |
| GST at 18% | ₹950 |
| Total | ₹6,350 |
Factors That Affect Bike Shipping Cost
- Transit insurance: optional cover at 2.5% of what you declare, never below ₹300. Declare ₹1,20,000 and it comes to about ₹3,000 plus GST.
- Express delivery: adds about 25% to the transport portion and brings the time down to 2–4 days.
- Premium wrap: costs about ₹900 more for thicker padding and a frame around the bike. Sensible for a new or expensive machine.
- Waiting time: if the driver is kept waiting at pickup or delivery for hours, waiting charges can apply. Ask the policy before you book.
- Depot instead of door: if you collect from or drop at a transport hub, you save about ₹750 plus GST.
What moves the final number on this route
- Distance. Each extra 100 km on this lane adds roughly ₹200 to a commuter bike's price. Delhi to Porbandar is about 1,340 km.
- Condition of the bike. A bike that will not start needs more people to load. Say so when you ask for the quote.
- Season and demand. Prices move up around Diwali, Holi and the start of the academic year, when more people are shifting.
- Flexibility on dates. A pickup window of three to five days is cheaper than a fixed same-day demand.
- Packing grade and insurance value. Premium wrapping adds about ₹900, and insurance is 2.5% of the declared value, so a higher declared value costs more.
- Bike size and weight. At 1,340 km a scooter starts near ₹4,900, a commuter near ₹5,350, a Royal Enfield near ₹6,400 and a sports bike near ₹10,150. Heavier bikes take more space and strapping.
- Access at both ends. A basement bay, a lift-only lobby or a lane that a truck cannot enter means extra hands or a smaller vehicle, and extra cost.
The price rises with distance, but not in a straight line. The first few hundred kilometres cost more per km than the rest, because loading, packing and paperwork are fixed.

The Safety Checklist Before You Pay Any Advance for Bike Transport from Delhi
Before any money moves for a Delhi to Porbandar booking, go through these points. They apply to every company, including us.
- Get the quote in writing. It should name the pickup address, the Porbandar delivery address, packing, insurance, GST and the days promised.
- Ask if the bike stays on one vehicle. Over 1,340 km, a transfer at a hub is where most damage and delay happen.
- Get a driver or coordinator number. You should be able to reach a real person while the bike is moving.
- Pay into a business account and take an invoice. A transfer to someone's personal number with no bill leaves you with nothing to show later.
- Keep the advance small. A booking amount is normal. Anyone who wants the full payment before the bike has even been picked up deserves suspicion.
- Verify who you are paying. A genuine company will give you a GST number, a registered address and an office phone. Check them, and read the Google reviews.
- Prepare the bike. Keep fuel to about a litre, tape or disconnect the battery lead, remove loose accessories and keep one key with you. Our how to prepare your bike guide covers the rest.
- Plan the Porbandar delivery. Strong winds and cyclone alerts between May and June and October to November can halt vehicles on the coast.
List of Documents You Usually Need for Bike Transport from Delhi to Porbandar (And When NOC Matters)
The carrier needs only a few papers to accept the bike. The heavier paperwork comes later, when you register in Gujarat.
- RC (registration certificate): a copy goes with the bike, and the original stays with you.
- Owner's ID: any one of Aadhaar, driving licence or passport, with the same name as the RC.
- Letter of authority: needed when a relative or friend hands over or receives the bike, with their ID attached.
- Contact details: a phone number and landmark for both Delhi and Porbandar.
- Insurance copy: the current policy, not an expired one. Third-party cover is the minimum.
- Finance NOC: if the bike is on a loan (hypothecation), a letter from the bank or NBFC allowing the move.
When NOC matters
You do not need an NOC to put a bike on a carrier. You need it when the bike has to be registered in Gujarat. A registration from another state is valid for twelve months under the Motor Vehicles Act, and then a new number must be taken. The NOC comes from the Delhi transport office, and if a loan is running, the bank has to release its hold first.
A bike staying in Gujarat past twelve months must be registered there. Ask the Delhi office for the NOC before you leave, because it is easier to get while you are still in the city.
One more point. If you qualify for the BH (Bharat) series, you do not need to re-register when you move states. Also check the current rules on older vehicles in Delhi–NCR with the transport department, because they have changed more than once. For a full list, see our documents required for bike transport article.
Know the Complete Step-By-Step Booking Process of Bike Transport from Delhi to Porbandar: Pickup To Delivery
This is how a normal booking runs. Our how it works page has more detail.
- Send your details. The form above takes a minute. We need the bike model, whether it starts, and the two addresses: one in Mayur Vihar or elsewhere in Delhi NCR, one in Porbandar.
- Read the quote. For 1,340 km it should show the total with GST, about 4–6 days on the road, and what is included. A commuter bike on this route starts near ₹5,350.
- Clear the bike. Remove the helmet lock gadgets, mirrors-mounted cameras and luggage. Keep one key and the RC with you.
- Handover in Noida Sector 62 or nearby. The crew walks around the bike with you, notes every mark, ties it down and hands you the condition sheet.
- While it travels. Keep your phone on. A delay from weather or a breakdown is reported to you, not hidden until the due date.
- Delivery slot. The driver calls before arrival. Share the exact address, gate and a person who can sign.
- Check, sign and pay the balance. Compare the bike against your pickup photos before signing. Write any scratch on the delivery sheet at the time.
In Porbandar we usually deliver to Chowpatty, Kirti Mandir area, Bokhira, Nagar Palika Road, Sudama Chowk and Chhaya Chowki. Strong winds and cyclone alerts between May and June and October to November can halt vehicles on the coast.
Common Mistakes That People Make On This Bike Shipping Route (And How You Avoid Them)
- Leaving a full tank. Carriers can refuse a bike with lots of fuel. Keep about a litre.
- Forgetting the second key. Hand over only one, and keep the other with you.
- Choosing only on price. A quote far below the others usually means a shared, transfer-heavy journey or missing insurance.
- A mistake specific to Porbandar. Fixing a hard delivery date. On a 1,340 km route a day's delay is normal, so give a window instead.
- Not planning the drop. Typical delivery areas include Chowpatty, Kirti Mandir area, Bokhira, Nagar Palika Road, Sudama Chowk and Chhaya Chowki. Strong winds and cyclone alerts between May and June and October to November can halt vehicles on the coast.
