What is the cheapest way to get a bus or travel trailer to hawaii?



I have been consideringidering moving to the big Island, Specifically to the puna, pahoa area.

I was wondering if it would be cost efficient to load a bus or travel trailer with esential items. or just purchace them there? (bus, trailer and items)What is the cheapest way to get a bus or travel trailer to hawaii?
hard question!! hawaii is very expensive because most of the things there has to be shipped in by plane or ship from other places. that adds a lot to the costs. rice,pineapple,fish, and other native foods aren't as bad. but beef and wheat, bread all have to come from the mainland by ship. i don't know how much you would save by bringing your own stuff?? gas is the highest in the nation. and housing is only higher in california. my son in the army will be there next year, for a few years.What is the cheapest way to get a bus or travel trailer to hawaii?
Check with a moving company, they would give you a quote.



If you want to load your own 40' container, shipping it from California will cost about $8500 to Honolulu. Maybe a bit more to get to Puna (almost same as Hilo). This may help: http://hawaiilaunchteam.com/Documents/Co鈥?/a>



I'm not sure it's a good idea to bring a bus or travel trailer to the Big Island. There isn't anywhere to go on extended trips, and gas is expensive. If you had a farm or business, you'd have a pickup.
