Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Honolulu, Hawaii to San Diego, California

Standard Service Starts at $1,070 between Hawaii and the Mainland. Pasha Hawaii offers Standard Vehicle service between our Hawaii (Honolulu, Hilo and Kahului) and California (San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco Bay Area) terminals. We offer Premium Vehicle service between our Hawaiian terminals and San Diego.

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances, but for long cross-country moves, the cost difference shrinks, and shipping can become comparable or even cheaper once you factor in gas, lodging, food, wear-and-tear, and your time, making the decision depend on distance, vehicle, your schedule, and budget. Driving saves money on carrier fees but adds wear on your car, while shipping costs more upfront but saves time, fuel, and stress.

Transport from San Diego to Honolulu takes, on average, around 5-7 days from start to finish. If your car is going to Kahului, you can add a day to that time frame.
