The service
Matson is the ocean carrier that moves containerized cargo between the US West Coast, Hawaiʻi, and Guam, with continuing service to the FSM states of Pohnpei, Chuuk, Yap, and Kosrae. It is the established way to ship household goods, vehicles, and commercial cargo between Guam and the islands.
How it works
- Cargo is booked through Matson’s customer service or its local agents in the FSM
- Island-side agents handle delivery — SeaVenture in Chuuk, Amcres Shipping Agency in Pohnpei, and Kosrae Shipping Agency in Kosrae
- Vehicles, household shipments, and commercial containers all move on the same service
- Quotes are provided per shipment; rates depend on weight, volume, and destination
Practical notes
- The FSM service runs through Guam, so Guam is the transshipment hub for island cargo
- For smaller or consolidated shipments, freight forwarders on Guam group cargo onto these sailings
