Vehicle Shifting Simplified

A-1 Auto Transport has the information you need to know to simplify your shipping:

  • All cars hauling to Hawaii must be in good running condition. Inoperable vehicles may not be dispatched to the island.
  • Before moving to Maui, vehicles leave the mainland for an inspection by the USDA at the exit port. To send a car, it must first be washed and cleaned inside and out. The engine should have no dirt or grease, and the wheels and tires should be spotless. Vehicles that are dirty or soiled will not be boarded for transit.
  • Personal items cannot be left inside vehicles being moved to Hawaii. Leaving personal items inside a car can cause customs agents to deny the vehicle for delivery.
  • When planning to have a motor vehicle hauled to the area, you should know it can take up to 14 days for the mobile to be delivered.
  • When you plan to have your ride shipped to the region, you should contact the automobile relocating firm no less than 2 to 4 weeks before the date you need to have the car scheduled to be picked up or loaded for delivery.
  • Most companies will arrange to pick up the vehicle at your location and deliver it to the repositioning port. If you prefer, you may also ride alone to the port.
  • The fuel in the motor vehicle should be run down to no higher than one-quarter tank.
  • Automobiles with fluid leaks cannot be boarded for hauling to Hawaii. Any visible fluid leaks should be fixed before shifting.
  • Ensure you have a telephone number to reach the relocating team during the hours their business office may be closed.
  • Before the motor moves out, you must ensure you have copies of all signed paperwork and documentation about your car's transit.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to ship a car to or from Maui, Hawaii?

Shipping a vehicle to or from Maui usually costs between $1,500 and $2,100, depending on the mainland port, vehicle size, and whether you use roll-on/roll-off or container service. West Coast ports like Oakland or Long Beach offer the best value, while enclosed or longer-distance shipments increase the total. Fuel costs, seasonal demand, and port fees also influence final pricing. To explore real-world rates and options, see our guide on the cheapest way to ship a car to Hawaii.

How long does it take to ship a car to or from Maui?

Most shipments between Maui and the mainland take 7 to 14 days. That includes pickup at your location, delivery to the departure port, vessel scheduling, and offloading in Maui (or vice versa). Delays may happen due to port congestion, weather, or vessel capacity, especially during summer or hurricane season. To better time your shipment, visit our guide on how long in advance to book car transport.

Can I leave personal items inside my car when shipping to Maui?

No, personal belongings are not allowed inside your vehicle during Hawaii transport. All cars must be clean and empty except for manufacturer-installed equipment like a spare tire or jack. Ports enforce this rule strictly due to maritime and customs regulations. If you need to ship household goods separately, ask about combined container services. Learn more in our page on shipping a car to Hawaii from the East Coast.

Should I choose RoRo or container shipping for Maui car transport?

Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) is the most affordable option and works well for standard, operable vehicles. Container shipping provides greater protection and is ideal for classic, luxury, or non-running vehicles. It’s also useful if you’re shipping household goods with your car. While container service costs more, it reduces exposure to salt air and weather. For a side-by-side comparison, visit our container shipping to Hawaii page.

What documents are required to ship a car to or from Maui?

You'll need a valid photo ID, the vehicle’s title or registration, and a lienholder authorization letter if the car is financed. Some ports may also require a notarized power of attorney. A Bill of Lading will be issued at drop-off and delivery to document condition. For a full checklist, review our guide on documents needed to ship a truck, which also applies to cars.

Can weather delays impact Maui car shipping schedules?

Yes. Ocean swells, hurricanes, or heavy rains can delay vessel departures and slow port operations. Maui is especially impacted during hurricane season (June to November), so it's wise to allow flexibility in your shipping window. Choosing an experienced carrier helps reduce risk. See tips to minimize shipping disruptions in our article on risks your car faces during transport.
