Shipping a Car From California to Alaska

If you are looking to ship a car from California to Alaska and you hire us to do it, we don't do direct shipments between the two states. Instead, we pick up your vehicle in California and then we truck it to the Port of Tacoma in Washington. Then from there it ships to the Port of Alaska in Anchorage, AK on a ship.

We make the process to ship a care from California to Alaska as painless as possible. As a door-to-door auto transporter, we can pick up your vehicle at any location in California. Once you place an order with us we can typically schedule a pick up within seven days (and usually it's much sooner than that especially if your location is on or near an interstate or major city). Once your vehicle is picked up it will usually be delivered to the Port of Tacoma in Tacoma, WA in 2-3 days.

The ships leave the Port of Tacoma every Wednesday and Friday and arrive in the Port of Alaska in Anchorage, AK in less than a week! Once your vehicle arrives at the Port of Alaska, our shipping partner in Anchorage will truck your vehicle to their lot. You can then pick up your vehicle Monday through Friday.

Most of our auto transports from California to Alaska are on open trailers and an open deck because that is the cheapest way to ship a car from California to Alaska. If you have a vehicle that must be fully protected, however, we offer enclosed transportation from California to Washington, and then "below deck" shipping on the ship from Washington to Alaska. Below deck shipping is a fully enclosed, climate-controlled area. Enclosed shipping is much more expensive than open shipping but it is an option that is available if necessary.
