How We Ship Cars from Hawaii to Maine
Shipping FROM Hawaii is the documented direction — five documents are required at the port, and missing one can push you past your sailing. The flip side is worth knowing: shipping TO Hawaii needs no documents at all — one of the reasons customers ship with us in both directions. We manage the paperwork checklist, your Matson booking, and 9–12 days of overland delivery from Long Beach to your Maine address.
Email your documents (24h before drop-off)
We confirm your paperwork is complete and email copies to the port so gate check-in is smooth.
Drop off at Honolulu (Sand Island)

Do you really deliver all the way to Maine?
Yes — Maine is the longest overland run on the network, about 9–12 days from Long Beach after the 14–17 day ocean leg. Portland, Bangor, and coastal towns are all door-delivery territory.

Will winter weather affect a Maine delivery?
Carriers run year-round, but in nor'easter weeks a driver may hold a day. Pad your plans with a buffer day December through March and rinse road salt off after delivery.
Can someone else sign for the car in Maine?
Yes — authorize any adult with photo ID and the driver will coordinate directly with them.
