Transporting a vehicle to or from Alaska often involves significant distances, usually including a substantial maritime leg. The specific origin/destination in the Lower 48 and the final destination within Alaska (e.g., coastal vs. interior) greatly affect the price.
Larger, heavier vehicles (SUVs, trucks, RVs) naturally incur higher costs due to increased space requirements and fuel consumption on both land and sea legs.
Your choice between open and enclosed transport significantly impacts the price, especially given Alaskan conditions.
Shipping during Alaska's winter months (October to April) can be more challenging and potentially more expensive due to extreme weather, icy roads, and reduced ferry schedules. Summer is generally peak season and may also see increased demand.
Accessing major ports like Anchorage, Juneau, or Fairbanks is generally more cost-effective than shipping to highly remote areas that require specialized last-mile delivery.
Faster delivery options for urgent Alaska car transport are available at a higher cost.

The cost varies significantly based on distance, vehicle type, and the method of transport (open vs. enclosed, and primarily maritime freight). Expect costs ranging from $1,500 to $5,000+ for standard vehicles from the Lower 48.
Transit times typically range from 7 to 21 days for full journeys from the Lower 48, largely due to the maritime leg from Seattle. This can be impacted by weather and port schedules.
We transport a wide range of vehicles, including standard cars, SUVs, pickup trucks, motorcycles, RVs, ATVs, classic cars, and specialized vehicles, adapting to the unique needs of Alaskan transport.
Alaska's extreme winter weather (snow, ice, blizzards, sub-zero temperatures) can cause significant delays or even temporary cancellations for both land and maritime transport. We recommend preparing your vehicle for cold weather if arriving in winter and opting for enclosed transport for added protection.
Most maritime carriers strictly prohibit personal items in the vehicle due to insurance limitations and safety regulations. Any items left inside are typically at the owner's risk and must be declared. We advise removing all personal belongings.
While we strive for door-to-door convenience, the remote nature of many Alaskan locations can make direct home delivery challenging. We often utilize a combined service, providing door-to-terminal transport in the Lower 48 and then coordinating pickup or delivery from a major Alaskan port or terminal.
