Auto transport to and from Hawaii is one of our most frequently performed services here at American Auto Transport! This kind of transport is, however, initially foreign to most of our customers. We receive a lot of questions about shipping to Hawaii, so we’ve decided to create a frequently asked questions page to help give you the answers that will help you make the right decisions about auto shipping to Hawaii.

Q: When do I need to make reservations for auto shipping to Hawaii if I want my vehicle delivered before X day?

A: This depends on what the port schedule is. You will have to call American Auto Transport at (954) 745-8950 to find out what the schedule looks like.

Q: I’ve heard that there are gas restrictions for shipping? Can you explain this?

A: There are indeed gas restrictions. You must have between 1/8th and ¼ tank of gas when shipping your vehicle to and from Hawaii.

Q: Your company is the cheapest that I’ve found for auto shipping. Is this a scam? Why is your price so low?

A: No, our price is not a scam; we can actually move your vehicle to or from Hawaii for that cheap. The reason for this is because we transport so many vehicles to and from Hawaii. Our shipping service provider, Matson Shipping, has allowed us the usage of a special, pro-rated price because we give them so much business.

Q: Am I allowed to pack my personal belongings in my vehicle for Hawaii auto shipping?

A: No. Your vehicle must be completely empty. Everything that is not part of the car, with the exception of spare tires, tire jacks, and things of this nature, must be removed from your vehicle prior to shipping to Hawaii or it will be thrown away.

Q: How does the payment work for Hawaii auto shipping?

A: You have to pay in advance for auto shipping. American Auto Transport takes a small deposit to confirm your reservation. Additionally, the remaining balance must be paid to Matson prior to shipping.

Q: I need to move multiple vehicles to Hawaii. Can you offer me a discount?

A: Yes! American Auto Transport always gives discounts for multiple vehicles. Shipping to Hawaii is no different!
