What to bring, and how to pack, when moving to Alaska
Furniture, appliances, and fitness equipment
In the lower 48, it’s common to leave large items behind and replace them after moving. In Alaska, furniture and appliances often cost more due to shipping costs. Replacing these items before your move and shipping them with your household goods is usually more cost-effective
Packing for the weather and the journey
- Moving to Alaska typically involves a long-distance trip through Canada.
- Depending on the season, cold temperatures can affect your belongings.
- Fragile items should be packed with extra care.
- Cold-sensitive items (such as leather furniture) should be specially wrapped to protect them during transit.
