As a freight company, we are often asked “What is the fastest way to get inventory to Alaska?” To which reply, “We can help you do that.” We’ve been shipping things to Alaska since 1965 and over the last 50+ years, we have learned a few things about shipping inventory that have become our standards for how we deliver every bit of inventory we ship. Here are the five key factors that should always be in place when one considers shipping to Alaska.
One of the more interesting and challenging aspects of working in Alaska is the weather. Everyone knows that Alaska is a cold place in the winter. However, there are many interesting facts about Alaska’s weather that most people do not know.
We have been in the shipping business for over 50 years now; however, it is not uncommon for one of our customer service representatives to have the following conversation: “Hi, I have a very large item that needs to get to Alaska as soon as possible. What is the best way for me to get my shipment there?” To which our representative will always respond: “Alaska Air Forwarding can ship that for you.”
