Since our inception in 1975, WPX has been developing customized delivery solutions for local, regional, and national companies that operate in the Western United States. Our company specializes in the daily pickup and delivery of products and documents to and from retail outlets, business offices, service locations, distribution, and processing centers.
Originally founded in Anchorage, Alaska, we consistently provide dependable service to all cities and most villages within Alaska, as well as locations throughout Washington, Oregon, Idaho, western Montana, Nevada, and four islands in Hawaii.
We all know that a reliable transportation company is a key to a business running smoothly. At WPX, we will take the time to respond to your needs personally in a way that the large national carriers aren’t able to provide. We pride ourselves on establishing personal relationships with our clients AND providing timely, high-quality service. That is why many of our original customers still use WPX today!
AIR FREIGHT FORWARDING SOLUTIONS
Every day WPX is moving freight by air on more than 70 flights. By consolidating orders, we are able to negotiate lower prices, minimize handling, secure your freight, and give you a competitive advantage. We have allocated space agreements in place that guarantee capacity during both low and high seasons.
OCEAN SOLUTIONS
WPX offers the lowest minimums and most competitive ocean shipping rates to and from Alaska. As a non-vessel-operating common carrier, we’re not locked into strict sailing schedules. This gives us the freedom and flexibility to schedule cargo on a variety of steamship lines. The WPX team can find the vessel and sailing time that best meets your business needs and budget. We can access more ports, more cost-effectively than vessel-operating carriers.
LOGISTICS SOLUTIONS
WPX can manage the flow of goods, information, and other resources between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet the requirements of shippers and consumers. Our strategically positioned warehouses in the western United States allow us to provide integration of information, transportation, inventory, warehousing, material handling, and packaging, as well as security. At WPX we develop customized solutions to best meet your needs.
If you are moving to a different state, the charges will be based on the weight of your
shipment and mileage—these are referred to as the transportation charges.
There are a variety of different moving charges that can potentially appear on your estimate,
so be sure to ask your relocation specialist to explain each charge for you.
Some additional charges that may appear include packing, crating, valuation or coverage,
bulky article charge (for oversized items), and extra labor. Again, please be certain you
fully understand these charges so that you can accurately compare the estimates you receive.
All movers are required to prepare an order for service before they transport your shipment.
The order for service provides you with written confirmation of the moving services that you
requested to be performed in conjunction with your shipment. It also lists the agreed upon
dates for the pickup and delivery of your shipment and amount of valuation that you requested,
along with any special services that you ordered.
It also features a place and telephone number where the mover can contact you during the move.
Additionally, the order for service shows the charges that you will be assessed for your
household move or corporate relocation. If you are moving under a non-binding estimate,
the order for service will indicate the amount of the estimated non-binding charges,
the method of payment for the charges and, in cases where the actual charges exceed the
non-binding estimate, the maximum amount that you are required to pay at the time of delivery
in order to obtain possession of your shipment (you will have 30 days following delivery to
pay the balance of the charges due). If you are moving under a binding estimate,
the order for service will show the charges that you will be required to pay at delivery,
based on the binding estimate and the terms of payment. You and your mover must sign the
order for service.
