1. Request a Quote
Start by filling out our online form or calling us at (888) 819-5655 for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to Hawaii auto transport, including port-to-port options.
2. Confirm Shipping Details
Once you approve the quote, we confirm all essential details, including port availability, pickup/drop-off schedules, and necessary documentation for Hawaii transport.
3. Vehicle Pickup
We arrange pickup from your location (or a designated mainland drop-off spot if shipping from Hawaii). Our driver will inspect your vehicle and document its condition.
4. Transportation Process
Your vehicle is safely loaded and transported either via enclosed/open carrier to the port, then shipped across the ocean to Hawaii (or from Hawaii to the mainland).
5. Final Delivery
Upon arrival, you’ll be notified to collect your vehicle at the Hawaii port, or we’ll deliver it to your specified location if door-to-door service was selected.
Preparing your vehicle for Hawaii auto transport requires a few extra steps due to the ocean freight component. Follow these essential guidelines to ensure a smooth and secure shipping experience:
Clean Your Car:
Thoroughly wash your vehicle to make the inspection process easier and ensure any pre-existing damage is properly documented before transport.
Remove Personal Belongings:
All personal items must be removed from the car. Hawaii port authorities do not allow vehicles with personal belongings inside due to shipping regulations and liability concerns.
Check for Leaks:
Inspect your vehicle for any fluid leaks. A leaking car may be denied transport as it can pose risks to other vehicles and equipment during shipment.
Disable Alarms and Toll Devices:
Turn off any alarms and remove toll passes to prevent unnecessary disruptions during shipping or while passing through transport terminals.
Provide Accurate Information:
Ensure that all pickup, drop-off, and port details are correctly shared, along with any special handling requests specific to Hawaii-bound or mainland-bound vehicles.
Selecting the right Hawaii car shipping service is crucial for a safe and stress-free experience. Here are the top five things to consider before booking:
Reputation and Reviews:
Look into customer feedback specifically related to Hawaii auto transport. AWZ Auto Transport is trusted for its reliable and professional service across ocean and land shipping.
Ocean Freight Expertise:
Choose a company that has experience with port-to-port transport and understands Hawaii’s unique shipping logistics.
Transparent Pricing:
Ensure the provider offers upfront pricing with no hidden fees, including all port charges, taxes, and delivery costs.
Customer Communication:
A company that provides clear communication about schedules, delays, and updates will make your shipping process far less stressful.
Delivery Timelines:
Shipping to or from Hawaii may take longer due to ocean transit. Choose a company that provides honest and realistic delivery windows.
