When i contacted them I need my sons 2 cars picked up in missouri and taken to alaska as his company just transfered him there. So I spoke with the people and got it all arranged with so much ease and stress-free as moving itself id enough stress. This company kept informed from the phone call I made to the car being pickWed up to arriving to the port to catch the boat to arriving in Alaska. This company knows what they are doing and made it do much easier for me. Thanks so much!

Never again!
Never ever in my 85 years on this earth have I been treated so shabbily by a business. I purchased a used Audi TT in Houston, TX, and hired Alaska Car Transport to ship it to my home in Fairbanks. Normally one would think this would take about ten days, maybe two weeks at the outside, well not in this case. The TT was picked up in Houston on August 30, it arrived in Anchorage on Sep 10, pretty reasonable, however it sat there for 14 days and finally arrived in Fairbanks, 360 miles away, on Sep 28. My utter frustration came about as a result of ACT refusing to provide me with any prediction as to when the car would actually be delivered. In fact at one point I believed that it may have been stolen. When i called to inquire the response was always “we’ve assigned it to a carrier they will let you know.” When I asked who the carrier is, they claimed they didn’t know. Repeated calls got me no where. I finally learned, from an outside source, that the TT arrived at The Port of Alaska, in Anchorage, on Sep 10, and was “released” to someone on Sep 24. It then took 4 more days to find its way to Fairbanks.
I would never, ever, under any circumstances consider doing business with Alaska Car Transport again.
Follow up, my expectations were based on A.C.T.’s time estimates.
Response from Alaska Car TransportSep 29, 2025
We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration it caused. We understand how important your shipment was and how stressful it felt not having a clear delivery timeline.
However, we do believe it is important to manage expectations. You requested your vehicle to be transported from Houston, Texas, to Fairbanks, Alaska. The distance alone is over 4,000 miles. To make matters more complex, it is not a straight drive by one carrier on the roadway. Shipments to Alaska need to traverse the Pacific Ocean to arrive in the Gulf of Alaska, which turns it into a three-leg journey accomplished by three separate carriers, one being a ship.
The graphic displayed on our website gives our customers more information on how long they can expect a shipment to take. The starting estimate on travel time for your distance is 16-17 days. This is significantly longer than the 10 days you estimated on your own. From there, carriers may be forced to delay through no fault of their own due to issues that arise such as rough seas, inclement weather, and road closures.
Also, once the vehicle arrives at the port in Anchorage, scheduling the final leg of transport depends on carrier availability, which is why delays sometimes occur. All dates and times given are always estimates, and while the overall process usually goes smoothly, there can occasionally be longer hold times at the port before the vehicle is released to a carrier.
With that being said, we do acknowledge that your vehicle was delayed and arrived for pickup later than estimated. We at Alaska Car Transport did work tirelessly to locate carriers and coordinate with them to minimize delays as much as possible. We do regret that the communication with you did not meet your expectations.

Even Better Than I Could Have Hoped
My experience with Alaska Car Transport followed an absolute horror story with the moving company that transported my household belongings. It took the movers 8 weeks to get my belongings from Oregon to Alaska, with a terrible lack of communication and professionalism. As a result, I was reasonably cautious when finding someone to transport my car. But I was blown away by Alaska Car Transport. It took them less than 10 days to transport my car - I was given updates to my email every single day, provided with a tracking number so that I could follow my car on its journey like a package, and my car was in the exact same condition I left it in. No muss, no fuss, extremely professional, no hidden fees, everything was simply perfect.
