northsouthdevide Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I did it years ago from Surat to Udon. I think it cost 2000bht, and it took 3 days and I had to pick it up at the main post office. I'm not sure I remember the price correctly, but I wasnt unhappy with the service. No damage, and arrived quickly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorecard Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 (edited) Same, my Thai son sent a big bike Chiang Mai to just outside Pattaya, near the Rose Garden venue. He went into a local basic PO in outer CM and asked, they instantly said YES can do and gave him a card with a number to call. He was impressed and even more impressed with the 'can do' attitude when he called the correct number. PO came to the house in CM with some packaging materials, did that immediately and took it away, all done in 30 minutes. Son flew to Utapao, about 48 hrs after taken from house in CM the PO near destination called son and asked what time was convenient to deliver and asked for full address details including some nearby obvious landmarks. Within 10 minutes of agreed time they turned up, offloaded the bike, quickly unpacked it and asked son to do a thorough inspection. In fact not one mark. I think total fee was around 2,500Baht including a little extra to pick up at house in CM and deliver to the door at destination. Son remarked that the PO staff were professional at every step and keen to do a good job. No hints at any stage for extra tips. Good luck.

crazykopite Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Post office in Thongsala will give you a price . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brotherother Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Another option could be using the train (I've definitely seen posts on TV about doing so). Probably the cheapest option but obviously you'll first need to get the bike to the mainland then deal with the train change in Bangkok. Good luck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yme Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Take it to the Post Office. They'll do everything. I sent a Yamaha Nouvo and bunch of other things to the g/fs house in Chiang Rai in April before leaving ahead of the airport shutdown. They have a set price on many things. Unbelievably cheap. The bike arrived with no damage and it was less than Bt2,000. A bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacovl46 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Why don’t you drive? I drove from Bangkok to Chang Mai once on my CBR150. Took me about 8 hours including fuel stops and grabbing a bite in between. It quite nice a ride. It was the second day of Songkran and almost no traffic on the road.
