ALASKA’S LONGEST STANDING AND

MOST
EXPERIENCED

AUTO TRANSPORT COMPANY

Wrightway has supported Alaska from its very beginnings; we were there when construction and building equipment needed to be brought in to start our towns. We were there when families needed to get their vehicles to their new homes. And we continue to be a part of the transport landscape today, making regular trips all across the state and nation.

Founded in 1951,

Wrightway Auto Carriers has been a trusted name in vehicle transport for more than 70 years.
From the early days of shipping cars via ferries and railroads to today’s advanced logistics, we’ve always focused on providing safe and reliable transport to and from Alaska. Originally a small, family-owned business, we quickly became known for navigating Alaska’s unique shipping challenges. Many years later, we are still locally owned and operated. Our offices near the Port of Anchorage continue to be the heart of our operation, ensuring we're always close to our work.

Over the years, we’ve expanded nationwide-

we now have a terminal in Fairbanks as well as Anchorage, and work closely with our partners in Tacoma–but our roots in Alaska remain strong, as our team’s passion for vehicle transport continues to drive us forward.

OUR VALUES

Above all else, we value providing quality services. We want each and every customer we serve to have a positive experience and come back in the future. What’s helped us do that for so long are the foundational principles we’ve been committed to from the very beginning.

INTEGRITY

We do what’s right, not what’s easy. Our transparent pricing, honest communication, and ethical business practices have been the foundation for the long-term trust we’ve built in all our relationships.
