Hauling
Alaska has the lowest population of any state in the United States. There are many things to take into consideration when you are planning to move to any Alaskan city:
- You will find that no sales tax or individual income tax must be paid.
- Even new residents can apply with the Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation and receive an annual payment from the permanent fund dividend.
- All vehicles must be registered in Alaska within 10 days of residency.
- To register for a car, you must pay the registration fee to a DMV office. You must also provide the clerk with the automobile title and registration to change to an Alaskan title.
- You will need to ship to a nearby seaport. Ports are located in Fairbanks and Anchorage. From there, the car can be flown or taken by ferry to Cordova.
- Always compare carrier companies before deciding on the one to hire. Look for quality services for moving as well as excellent customer service.
