Areas We Cover
Kodiak Island Borough can only be accessed from other cities and the US by plane or ship. Even so, the area has a good interior road network that we use to haul cars to nearby boroughs. Some of the nearby municipalities we move to are Kenai Peninsula Borough to the north and Lake and Peninsula Borough to the northwest.
We often use sea or air transportation when shipping cars to or from Kodiak Island Borough. We take advantage of the many ports in Alaska to bring in vehicles from neighboring cities and countries that are further away. Vehicles hauled in by A1 AT are ferried on the Alaska Marine Highway to the Port of Kodiak. Our truck drivers load the vehicles on the car carriers and shift them within the borough by road. When moving vehicles from the island to other cities within the US and abroad, we still ship through the seaport.
Air transportation is also available through the Kodiak Airport. We use the airport to relocate vehicles to cities within Alaska to allow transportation to further locations by road or seaports. Most of the vehicles we move by air are for customers requiring expedited shipping, which is more costly than sea transportation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to ship a car to or from Kodiak Island Borough, Alaska?
As of September 10, 2026, Kodiak Island Borough car shipping for a standard running car is about $3,100-$4,300 port-to-port between Tacoma and Kodiak, depending on direction. West Coast moves requiring an added mainland truck leg commonly budget about $4,100-$5,600, while Midwest or East Coast moves are roughly $4,300-$6,200. These bands assume open transport for the mainland leg; vehicle size, operability, and exact pickup location can change the total. A1's car shipping rates guide explains the main quote inputs.
How long does it take to ship a car to Kodiak Island Borough?
Car shipping to or from Kodiak typically takes 7-16 days from Pacific Northwest pickup, 12-21 days from California, and about 14-24 days from Midwest or East Coast pickup. The ocean segment is shorter than the complete move: Matson lists 5-7 days from vessel sail date between Tacoma and Alaska ports. Inland trucking, port staging, weather, or a missed vessel cutoff can add calendar time. Pickup scheduling before the vehicle is assigned and loaded is separate from these transit windows.
How does Kodiak Island Borough car shipping work from the Lower 48?
Lower 48 vehicle shipments to Kodiak commonly use a mainland truck leg to Tacoma followed by direct ocean service from Tacoma to Kodiak. Matson currently lists Kodiak as an Alaska auto-shipping port and operates twice-weekly Tacoma-Kodiak vessel service, so Anchorage or Homer is not a required transfer for that route. A southbound shipment reverses the process, with inland trucking added after Tacoma when needed. A1's Alaska car shipping page covers the broader land-and-sea options.
What documents do I need to ship a vehicle to or from Kodiak?
Document requirements for Kodiak vehicle shipping depend on the booked ocean carrier, so check its terminal instructions before drop-off. Matson requires an advance booking and says customers present a driver's license at vehicle drop-off; pickup requires the booking number and photo identification. SSR Logistics states that its Alaska shipments require the vehicle title and current registration, plus notarized owner authorization when someone else delivers the car. A1's vehicle shipping document guide covers common paperwork used in auto transport.
Can I ship an electric vehicle or plug-in hybrid to Kodiak Island?
Matson currently does not accept battery-electric vehicles or plug-in hybrids aboard its vessels, including the direct Tacoma-Kodiak service. That restriction is carrier-specific, so it should not be treated as a rule covering every company that may serve Alaska. Before arranging the mainland truck leg for an EV or PHEV, confirm that the ocean carrier accepts the exact vehicle and review its battery and terminal requirements. Acceptance policies can change, making carrier confirmation important before pickup is scheduled.
Does weather or vessel scheduling affect Kodiak vehicle shipping?
Kodiak vehicle transportation operates year-round, but Gulf of Alaska weather can still change vessel timing and terminal plans. AMHS identifies Kodiak as a community with year-round ferry service, while Matson lists twice-weekly Tacoma-Kodiak cargo service. Strong winds, rough water, or other operating conditions can still create delays; a recent AMHS notice documented a roughly six-hour Tustumena delay after gale-force winds and strong opposing currents. Check the booked carrier's sailing date and terminal cutoff before arranging vehicle drop-off.
