FAQs
When do I need to have my shipment at Honolulu Freight Service for shipping to Hawaii?
Cutoff times vary, but USUALLY by noon the day prior to shipping. For confirmed cutoff times, please contact your local Honolulu Freight Service terminal.
How do I ship my automobile?
We do not ship automobiles as there are special vehicle preparation and documentation requirements to ship overseas. We will, however, be happy to steer you in the right direction for making arrangements to ship these items.
How long will it take my shipment to reach my customer?
See our Shipping Schedules for approximate shipping days. The number of days is approximate as there maybe unforeseen delays such as weather delays and schedule changes due to vessel breakdown, etc.
What is a C.O.D.?
C.O.D. stands for Collect On Delivery. A C.O.D. is the invoice or dollar value of the goods which a shipper wants to collect from the receiver upon delivery. (Not just the freight charges). The C.O.D. amount must be stated in a specific place and format on the original Bill of Lading before the carrier receives the goods for transport. Upon delivery and collection of the funds from the receiver, the funds are transferred to the shipper. There is a fee charged for this service. Contact your local terminal for C.O.D. fees.
What is the proper way to palletize freight?
As square on the pallet as possible, without hanging over the edges, and as flat on top as possible. If boxes on the bottom hang off the edge of the pallet, the weight of boxes above it will force the bottom box to crush down. Remember, when we rate freight, we based it on the total cubic feet.
