Shipping a car in Fairbanks

Fairbanks is a smaller Fairbanks North Star Borough, Alaska community of roughly 31,732 residents. It is within a short drive of North Pole (10 mi), which a carrier can reasonably cover in one pass. Cost here follows the corridor a vehicle ultimately joins rather than the size of the town, so quotes are often closer to a metro rate than people expect.

Fairbanks works as a standalone pickup within reach of North Pole (10 mi), Nenana (45 mi) and Healy (70 mi). A Alaska run through this area may take in North Pole on the same trip before heading out on the Alaska Highway, Seward Highway, and Glenn Highway corridors. That is why pickup is quoted as a window of days rather than a set hour: the arrival time depends on the stops booked around yours.

Elsewhere in Fairbanks North Star Borough we also collect in North Pole. A booking that shares a truck with a neighbouring pickup is usually the cheaper option, so it is worth mentioning if you are moving more than one vehicle.

Before you book

Carrier checks and vehicle preparation are the same for a Fairbanks pickup as for any other, so they are covered once rather than on every city page. Before pickup, ask for the carrier's MC or USDOT number to look up on FMCSA SAFER and for its cargo insurance certificate. How to prepare your car for shipping covers the wash, fuel level and personal items, and the Bill of Lading guide explains the condition report you sign at both ends.
