Offshore Shipping
Alaska - Hawaii - Puerto Rico
Yellowstone can manage your off-shore shipping via ocean going vessels or as air freight. Shipping to offshore points requires Yellowstone to coordinate multiple carriers and modes of transportation.
Yellowstone will arrange for pickup and transportation to the appropriate ocean or air-port and then manage the connection on to an airline or ocean going vessel. Once onboard Yellowstone will trace the shipment to its final port and arrange for delivery to its destination via truck, barge, rail or air.
HAWAIIAN DELIVERY
Shipments bound for Hawaii will land in the Port of Honolulu on the island of Oahu.
Shipments destined for outer islands including Maui, Hawaii & Kauai will be trans-loaded to barges that make regular intra-island voyages. Vessels leaving U.S. west coast ports take five days to get to Oahu and then it is two additional days to arrive at the outer islands.
Upon arrival to the destination island shipments will be transferred to trucks for final delivery. Yellowstone will track the shipments throughout the process and will supply tracking reporting as often as needed to manage customer expectations.
