Port of Hilo Auto Transport Pricing & Time To Ship Your Car Examples

*Prices and times are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and what type of vehicle you are shipping.

Car shipping through the Port of Hilo Harbor

The Harbors Division of the Hawaii DOT operates all three piers at the port. All the three piers can receive general container cargo and vehicles. Pier 2 has a platform that is used to load and unload roll-on/roll-off (Ro/Ro) cargo. So, the port can be used to ship cars in containers and through the Ro/Ro shipping method. The port has storage facilities auto transporters use before shipping the cars.

The port is a US Customs and Border Protection designated port of entry. It has customs officers that can inspect vehicles imported into the island from overseas. Please note that vehicles shipped from the other 49 states of the US need not be inspected as they already conform to the EPA and US DOT standards.

Finding a good Port of Hilo auto shipper

Not all US based transporters provide the services of shipping cars to or from Port of Hilo, Hawaii. There is a sea between mainland US and Hawaii. Therefore, the process of shipping to and from Hilo is more like the international car shipping process.

To find the right shipper to transport your car to or from Hawaii through Hilo:

• Find top auto transport companies on review sites such as Yelp, Consumer Affairs, BBB, and Transport Reviews.
• Find out if the car shipper you want to work with is experienced in shipping to and from Hawaii.
• Check the shippers licensing and safety records on the Federal Motor Carrier Security Authority website.
• Request quotes from several shippers to try and establish the average cost of the shipping. Never hire a shipper solely on price as a low quote could indicate poor services, and neither does a high price guarantee quality services.
• Ask about the shipper’s schedule. Often, you will find the shippers fleet is tied up in other transport jobs, such that they will take a lot of time before scheduling your shipment.
• Before hiring, make sure you ask for proof of insurance.
