Inter-Island Service

HFS-Inter-Island-Service-Slide2

HFS’s Inter-Island Cargo Division has pioneered a new path on handling intrastate cargo. For about a decade, HFS Inter-Island was one of the first in the state to consolidate and containerize neighbor island bound cargo originating from Oahu to the outer Hawaiian islands all on our simple, single HFS bill of lading. Our premium Inter-Island container service is the most secure neighbor island ocean transport offering 100% protection from the weather elements during drop off, open barge transit and cargo pickup, utilizing multiple weekly departure sailings from Oahu. A significant cost savings advantage that our premium ocean service offers is reducing your driver’s stand by time by avoiding hours of waiting in line at a congested public barge ports and enjoying first availability discharge at the destination port versus shipping cargo loose (not containerized) which has a secondary barge offload priority. This alone will improve your drivers routing and delivery efficiencies utilizing our quicker, personalized drop off at our convenient Honolulu location (less than 5 minutes from the port) while enhancing your neighbor island customer experience with a fast and hassle-free pickup service at one of our fully staffed, covered and secured island terminals. Our Honolulu, Big Island (Hilo & Kona), Maui and Kauai locations provide on-site customer service, warehousing, storage of refrigerated and dry cargo each featuring a full service trucking fleet for island wide store door delivery.
