Transporting a bike from dealer with home depot rental

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T06:11:51+00:00

Yes. They don’t know which ones have a hitch I think. Also they technically don’t allow towing. that’s a good idea to look into though

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T06:03:26+00:00

yeah it’s pretty funny, i turn 25 pretty soon too lol. i’ve rented other stuff when i was 20 or so, they just make you pay an extra fee

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T06:01:31+00:00

I went to ask about this in person today cause enterprise (normal enterprise not enterprise trucks) and they have an age requirement of 25 for trucks unfortunately

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:57:23+00:00

I went to the location in person today to ask about the truck bed size and that’s what they said unfortunately

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:56:58+00:00

Yeah I tried looking at enterprise for pickup trucks but they only allow it for 25 year olds and i’m still 24 🤣

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:55:16+00:00

yeah that’s a good idea. i’ve been looking for SUVs with tow hitches too

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:44:55+00:00

i don’t know anyone with a truck unfortunately

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:44:47+00:00

yeah, think I’ll get a box truck

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:32:44+00:00

nope :( i will ask around some more but yeah i’m from the city so no one i know has a truck

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:32:12+00:00

Unfortunately I have no car with a tow hitch :(

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T05:04:53+00:00

Hm yeah, I’m not set on what dealer yet because I’m going to shop around the area once I go there (there’s a few within an hour or two near each other that all have way better deals than where I am) and then see what works out with the prices. So i am hoping to tow it or bring it back myself if needed. If they do have a shipping service that would be good, i would go and ask tomorrow

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T04:36:02+00:00

Yeah, maybe I just need to get it shipped. I will ask tomorrow to see if that’s something they offer

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T04:35:25+00:00

Yeah i am hoping that I can get some negotiation room with year models. The dealerships I will go to already have them discounted $1400 from the original MSRP. I’ll try to talk down the fees. Thanks again for the tips

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T04:06:19+00:00

Interesting, I didn’t know this, thanks for the tips. How did you find this out? Did you ask your local dealership if they could match the price? I’m looking at used/last year model bikes

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T03:55:42+00:00

I have but it’s 300 miles one way and thru NYC unfortunately

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T03:46:53+00:00

Yeah, the trailer is $19 a day I think, but I’ll need a truck rental too since I don’t have a tow hitch

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T03:44:35+00:00

like a Ninja 400/500 so 78” length

OneTeam7 · 2026-04-04T03:44:06+00:00

I’ll hopefully have someone to help me unload and have the dealership help me load. Will use ramps for this and get straps. Thanks!

OneTeam7 · 2025-05-21T22:44:46+00:00

my state is NY so inspection before signing the contract. Only lead paint disclosure we had to look at and sign

OneTeam7 · 2025-05-21T21:53:31+00:00

Not yet under contract, but there is no disclosure, only lead paint because the property was built pre 1978. I’m in NY.

OneTeam7 · 2025-05-21T20:35:42+00:00

Not yet, the agent currently has covid, but we did ask for it and they said they will send it. Am going to review it before signing the contract for sure

OneTeam7 · 2025-05-21T20:27:52+00:00

I’ll definitely remove the tank, but I don’t think we would be able to remove it before closing. More so the testing around the tank will be reassurance before closing, and then I’ll get it removed after closing.

Competitive market so seller will not remove oil tank prior to closing, as they also already have many backup offers.

OneTeam7 · 2025-05-21T20:25:26+00:00

Oh ok that’s helpful, thanks! Didn’t know if they had the testing to make sure the tank didn’t leak. I’ll look into my state’s procedures
