Sitka Car Shipping

Sitka Car Shipping to the Island on the Outer Coast

Ship A Car, Inc. arranges door-to-door vehicle transport for Sitka, the old Russian capital on the outer coast of Baranof Island, where the road runs fourteen miles and ends at both ends, the fishing fleet fills the harbors, the Coast Guard air station sits by the airport on the island across the channel, the cathedral stands at the center of town, the volcano stands across the sound, and no highway reaches it from anywhere. Your car rides with a licensed, insured carrier we vet before it is assigned, and then with an ocean carrier or the Marine Highway on a booked sailing.

A Sitka move is a Southeast move on the outer coast, and we say so first: the island has no road to anywhere, so the car sails from Puget Sound to Sitka directly or rides the state ferry on a schedule that is thinner than Juneau’s or Ketchikan’s, and we route by destination and price the sailing before booking rather than quoting the Anchorage lane. The truck brings the car to the terminal in Tacoma or Seattle, the Sitka sailing takes its own schedule, and the car is collected at the dock or delivered along the fourteen miles of road. Coast Guard families reporting on orders, hires at the hospital and the fleet on a start date, seasonal workers arriving for the summer, and households heading back south are the shipments we see most. The road takes the truck to the door where the house fronts it; a hill street meets it below at the dock, agreed at booking, and the thinner schedule means booking a month out.
