The FAQ's: Auto Shipping to Alaska

If you're searching for auto shipping services to or from Alaska there are a few things you should understand. For starters, it's much more expensive than regular auto transport from one mainland state to another; for another, it's more time-consuming; and lastly, it involves an entirely separate shipping company, the port shipper, to help transport your car. The process is very involved - after you book your order with a shipping company, they'll contract a carrier to pick your vehicle up and transport it to the port. The port shipper will then load onto a roll-on/roll-off cargo ship and transport it to the port in Alaska, usually in Anchorage.
