Finding auto transporting companies is a challenge in and of itself – but finding auto transporting companies who can also do auto transport to Alaska, Hawaii and overseas is another challenge entirely. Auto transporting companies who do Alaska and Hawaii shipments are typically larger companies – they have the connections with the auto transporting companies that own the ships that move the vehicles to those states, so they are able to provide competitive auto shipping quotes.

Auto transporting companies that service Alaska and Hawaii will find you auto transporting companies to move the vehicle to the port in Los Angeles, if shipping to Hawaii, or Seattle, if shipping to Alaska.

For international shipments, auto transporting companies will find you a carrier to move it to the port. There are auto transporting companies located in almost every major port city in the United States, but be sure to know which port the auto transporting companies ship out of and if whatever country you’re shipping to makes a difference in terms of price. Many auto transporting companies will only ship to port countries, then talk to different auto transporting companies in those countries to move your vehicle. This is because a ship cannot get to a landlocked country, so auto transporting companies need to move vehicles into port countries before transporting them over land to the delivery country.
