            Why Ship a Car Instead of Driving to Alaska?

            Why Ship a Car Instead of Driving to Alaska

            It might seem like a good idea to make the drive yourself so you can save some money, but could end up causing you more trouble (and more money) than it’s worth in the long run. Here is why:

            • The Drive is Long: Driving to Alaska from Washington state can take over 43 hours. It will take between 5 and 6 days. Many gallons of gas you’ll have to fill up and that’s a lot of unneeded wear and tear on your car.
            • You Have to Cross Borders, Twice: On the way to Alaska, you’ll need to cross the border into Canada and again into the U.S. when you arrive in Alaska. Both factors combined make it unnecessary to wait a lot.
            • Special Equipment May be Required: Your car might need winter tires and chains depending on the season you travel. Some small gas stations may not be open on your way up to or down from Alaska, so you’ll also need extra gas cans.

            All of these costs will certainly add up very quickly. Last but not least, consider how tired you’ll be afterward.

                  Is it Really Expensive to Ship a Car to Alaska?

                  The open and enclosed car carriers are both suitable for shipping cars to Alaska. The quickest, easiest, and cheapest way to ship a car to Alaska is by port-to-port transport.

                  The only downside is that since the hauler is exposed, your car will undergo all sorts of temperature and weather changes during transit. No matter what method you choose for shipping a car to Alaska, our carriers are licensed and insured.

                  How Do I Prepare my Car to Ship to Alaska?

                  You need to prepare your vehicle properly in order to transport it to Alaska, so here is a small checklist you can refer to. Some of those things are:

                  • Make sure you have a copy of the keys for all locking compartments, including the gas tank and glove box, as well as the ignition and trunk keys.
                  • Vehicles must have a minimum ground clearance of 5 inches
                  • The vehicle must not have more than 1/4 tank of gas (electric vehicles must be fully charged)
                  • A clean exterior is required for inspection of the vehicle
                  • Personal items must be removed from the vehicle
                  • You must have a running vehicle that steers and stops
                  • All firearms, ammunition, flammables, and hazardous materials are prohibited.

                  These things will help to ensure a hassle-free and efficient shipping process!

                  Can a Financed Car be Shipped to Alaska?

                  In general, shipping a car to Alaska with an auto loan is no problem. However, if you are traveling to Alaska, you will need a notarized letter. It must state that we can ship it there. Despite having the registration for your financed vehicle, you don’t own it.

                  Getting an Alaska car shipping quote is the next step after you have verified with your lender. We will handle the rest. We’ll transport your vehicle safely and quickly.
