Aloha, any recommendations for reliable trucking companies on Maui that pick-up/transport containers to Matson for shipment to mainland?
Thanks, Koale

This is not a Matson container? If it is, they will pick it up.

my quote was from Matson. They were the ones who advised me that I had to find a 'driver' to pick the container up at my residence for delivery to Kahului shipping yard after it was loaded. Matson would deliver empty container to my home. I found this to be somewhat strange as well. I think a follow-up call is in order.

I use sniffens to move my construction 20 foot container. They can pick it up off the ground if that is the case.

Default Kahului Trucking sucks

Do not go with Kahului Trucking if you have any choice. This was the company Matson "assigned" me for delivery of my container to my home in Maui after I had paid in advance for this service.

The times Kahului Trucking gave me to deliver my container were incredibly limited and then, when a delivery date was finalized, they tried to deliver it on the wrong date. I received a call one day at work asking why wasn't I home as their trucker was trying to deliver the container at my residence. Problem was they got the delivery date wrong by one week.

I was neither home nor able to take delivery. I live in a large complex where I had to tell them a date ahead of time when the container would arrive so they would allow me to park the container in reserved spaces so obviously I knew EXACTLY when I had scheduled the delivery. The woman blamed me and left me wondering where they would take/leave/drop my container.

Bottom line, find your own trucking company if Matson tries to stick you with KT&S for delivery of your container.
