● You've lived it

Shipping to Hawaii has been broken
for a long time.

Every Hawaii resident has a drawer full of these moments. We move freight for a living — so we built GlideOver to end them.

Exhibit A
“We don't ship to HI.”

IKEA won't ship here. At all. Neither will Titan Fitness. Half of Amazon's third-party sellers tap out at checkout.

Real policies — IKEA, Titan Fitness
Exhibit B
$45 here. $14 to NYC.

Same 2 lb box. Same distance. Hawaii just costs triple.

Rep. Ed Case, Affordable Shipping for All Act (2025)
Exhibit C
“Free shipping” — not here

Free right up until the Hawaii surcharge loads at checkout — after the hour you spent picking out a coffee grinder. As one local put it: shipping often costs double the product.

Beat of Hawaii reader comments
Exhibit D
3–4 weeks at peak

USPS "Priority" gets downgraded to ocean freight every November. Your Christmas order shows up in January — five transfers, no photos, good luck with a claim.

How Priority Mail to Hawaii works, Nov–Jan
We fixed all four. One mainland address, rates about half of carrier retail, nightly flights, every package photographed.
Why GlideOver

Built for
anyone who's
heard “doesn't
ship to HI.”

Six reasons it just works.

/ 01
🏠

A real California address.

Fremont, California. Your own identification number. Use it anywhere: Target, Best Buy, Etsy, IKEA — even the shops that swear they don't ship to Hawaii.

/ 02

Air, not ocean.

We partner with major air carriers for nightly lift out of California — every box flies. Door-to-door in 2–3 days, every island.

/ 03Honest pricing

Cheaper than carrier retail.

Published per-box rates — no zip-code penalty, no surprise fees. Most boxes ship for up to 64%+ under carrier retail. See the full breakdown on our pricing page.

/ 04
📦

Merge ‘em all.

Got five orders landing this week? We'll bundle them into one box, one label, one fee. Most folks save even more by bundling.

/ 05
📍

All six islands.

Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Big Island, Molokai, Lanai. We deliver last-mile to all of them — same system, same clock.

/ 06
📱

Texts, not spam.

“Your box just boarded tonight's flight out of California.” Real updates. From real humans. Not ‘in transit’ for a week.

How it works

Four panels.
That's it.

No paperwork. No middlemen. No ‘please contact support.’

01
🏢

Get your address.

Sign up in two minutes. We assign you a suite at our Fremont warehouse.

02
🛍️

Shop anywhere.

Use your address at checkout. We receive, photograph, and weigh every box.

03
📦

We bundle the haul. Or don't.

Five orders, one box. We photograph each package, then pack the smallest box they all fit in. One label, one fee.

04

On the next flight out. Door in 2–3 days.

We ship within one business day of your box landing, on a nightly air carrier from CA. Last-mile courier to your door, photo at delivery.

Savings

Two real boxes.
Two real wins.

Whether you bundle or not, you save. Our rates beat retail on a single oversize package — and bundling stacks more on top.

FAQ

The stuff everyone asks.

How are you faster than USPS Priority to Hawaii?

USPS Priority to Hawaii can take 3–4 weeks at peak because it gets downgraded to ocean freight. We partner with major air carriers so every package flies, never floats — and we ship each box within one business day of arrival. Door-to-door in 2–3 days.

How do you keep rates so low?

Volume and long-standing carrier relationships. We move enough boxes through our mainland warehouse to lock in wholesale air rates the average shopper can't get — so even with our margin, a box lands around half what retail UPS charges to Hawaii. Published per-pound rates, no membership.

What can I not ship?

Lithium batteries over 100Wh, firearms, live plants or animals, and anything FAA-classified hazmat. We can ship most food, electronics, and sealed liquids under 32 oz — essentially anything Amazon ships.

Do you handle damage claims?

Every package is photographed at intake, so seller-side damage gets flagged before it flies. $100 of coverage is included free on every shipment (carrier-backed); you can declare up to $2,000 for a small fee. We file the claim for you.

Can I use GlideOver for my small business?

Yes. Businesses ship on the same published per-box rates — no membership, no minimums, no contract. Ship regularly? Email brandon@glideover.co and we'll help you set it up.

What about really big items?

Under 70 lb and 62 linear inches goes the standard route. Larger ships all-air with our carrier partners — 2–4 days, priced per cubic foot.
