How does car shipping to Hawaii work?

We schedule a carrier to pick up your vehicle on the mainland and deliver it to the departure port. It travels by RO/RO vessel to Hawaii, then you or your designee complete pickup or onward delivery per your booking.

How long does Hawaii car shipping take?

Plan for about 7–14+ days end-to-end depending on origin, sailing schedules, port cut-offs, and island destination. Mainland trucking time is added to ocean transit.

What documents are required?

Government-issued ID, current registration/title (or lienholder authorization), and booking paperwork. Names must match. Additional port forms may be required by the ocean carrier.

Can I leave personal items in the car?

Personal items are generally restricted for ocean transport. Remove valuables and loose cargo; follow the ocean carrier’s rules for interior contents to avoid delays.

Do I need to clean the vehicle for inspection?

Yes. Vehicles should be clean and free of soil/plant material for port and agricultural inspections. Remove external accessories that could loosen in transit.

Is my vehicle insured during shipping?

Mainland legs include the assigned carrier’s cargo insurance. The ocean leg is covered per the ocean carrier’s terms of carriage. We document condition at handoffs to support any claims.

Can you ship from any mainland state to Hawaii?

Yes—door-to-port is available from most states. We route to designated West Coast ports used by the ocean carrier for Hawaii sailings.
