“I wonder how many people know what a key role Conan plays in the process of doing something as seemingly simple as sending personal belongings to the mainland.
I am 83 years old and could likely have never completed this daunting task without Conan’s expertise. Here is the rough sequence of events that, due to your professionalism, I doubt I could have managed alone:
Finalize arrangements with Matson and pay them in full.
Make final flight arrangements and purchase tickets.
Finalize a place to stay on the mainland while goods are in transit and a new address is established.
Establish payment and obtain cash and arrival date for Conan driver.
Locate and pay trucking co in Oakland to pick up goods.
Find and pay a moving co to retrieve goods from Oakland trucking yard and forward to new mainland address.
Sell and deliver my only car.
Allow landlord to re-rent my current living space to new tenants on Feb 1st.
These are just a few of the critical pieces that are solely dependent on Conan’s “linchpin role” in completing such a life-changing puzzle. And, through it all, your Conan representative, in this case Priscilla, is the unquestionable quarterback!
My wife and I humbly thank you for being there for us step-by-step and affording us with the security of knowing things are working out in spite of our trepidation.

“We chose to partner with Kona Trans when we ordered a shipment of lithium batteries from China. They called us as soon as they arrived. We went there the next day to pick them up. It was so fast and easy! They brought out the pallet and loaded them into our vehicle. In less than 5 minutes we were driving off as extremely satisfied customers! We highly recommend Kona Trans for all your imported shipments!”

“Overall, it's understandable and polite, but oh my god, these lines... and in the rain, too. 21st century, I recommend creating an electronic queue so that people don't have to squeeze in tightly in the rain for so long.”

“The vehicle pickup process was very easy. I was dropped off at the entrance by an Uber. They asked for my ID and then directed me over to the window where the employee looked up where my vehicle was. I was taken to my vehicle in a golf cart by another employee. I inspected the vehicle and then drove it out of there and that was that. The whole process took all of 15 minutes. Overall, it was very easy and quick.
The only thing I wish was that they offered some type of online tracking once the vehicle has shipped. I feel like every company has shipping tracking nowadays (Amazon, USPS, etc.). I was surprised they didn’t.”
“Thanks for the call for pickup, if only Amazon would direct FedEx deliveries to desired address instead of the default General delivery
Also if UPS can also allow pickup, and/or call.
Drone delivery would be great !”
“Not cheap but extremely helpful. Young brothers has a hold on cargo freight shipping in the islands. These folks can get things from one islands to another faster. With young brothers claiming they're going to increase rates by 25% starting in 2026 and that they're still on the verge of bankruptcy, I look forward to another company finally competing with them. I hope Aloha air cargo gets more business and keeps it real with the people. Great staff and prompt shipping. ??????????”
