Carlile Connect will ship ammo from Tacoma to Anchorage

https://www.carlile.biz/ship-to-alaska/

Here is the email from the hazmat guy I talked with. It has more details.

Hello

Using our Carlile MyConnect service (link to sign up is below). Once you’ve created an account, you can then have your orders that you’ve purchased sent to our Tacoma facility. At that point, they get consolidated onto a trailer and sent to Alaska via steamship. Upon arrival here, they will call and let you know when your order can be picked up.

In regards to ammunition supplies, it’s extremely important to have your packages, marked, labeled, and shipped to meet the CFR 49 regulations for hazmat. Most vendors or suppliers that you order from know this as well, but it’s good to verify with them before they are shipped.

Here is regulations for shipping black powder, and primers.
Black powder can be sent up to 100 lbs. according to the regulations. Also, they will need to be sent on separate shipments if it’s coming up from Tacoma because of segregation issues.

Have several friends who have used Carlisle My Connect to great success recently. Huge jump over previous options.

I have not used them for ammo, but I have used them for other items that can't fly.

They are great, and offer a great service and a very reasonable price.

Once you have an account you get an "address" in Tacoma and the rest is practically automatic.

Carlile also ships to fbx, which is nice. I found some retailers will charge WA sales tax because it goes to Tacoma first, anyone else dealt with this?

Thanks for posting.

What’s the cost per case to freight forward to AK?

I was talking to a guy last week who said he was paying about $20 per 150rd can of .50 BMG. I ordered some ammo today and had it shipped there. It was not enough to make it worth sending a whole pallet. I'll post when i get it in.

Be advised..Attempted to purchase ammunition from MidwayUSA sent to Carlile Transportation and MidwayUSA cancelled my order stating they will not ship to freight forwarders: "MidwayUSA does not ship to Prep Centers because it falls outside our terms of service, our mission is to serve retail, end-user Customers. This includes any NON-USPS mail facility; freight forwarding, Cargo Services, UPS, FedEx et cetera. We also do not do any business outside of the United States, directly or indirectly. Because of this we have cancelled your order."

When you set up account, it will give you price quote based on dimensions and weight when you select ship option.

1000rd can of 556 was $24 to Anchorage

Just completed first ammo shipment through Carlisle. Purchased 1k rounds of 556 from J&G. Had shipped to Carlisle in Tacoma. Shipping from Tacoma to Anchorage was $27. Arrived in less than a week. Picked up from 1st Street location in Anch. No issues. Shipping up a lot more in a couple of weeks via UPS Bellingham to Carlisle. Will see how the UPS portion goes..

Shipped 360lbs of ammo up from Bellingham recently.

UPS -> Carlisle Tacoma -> ship -> Anchorage

Boxes with 50cal cans in shipped. 65lb limit per box. 8 boxes total. UPS picked up in Bellingham and delivered to Tacoma dock next day. Shipping from Tacoma to Anchorage was just under $25 per box.

Fuck Carlile!

I have been using AFF for ammo for years and went to try this new connect method. The place i ordered the ammo from sent individual cases UPS instead of on a pallet. I called carlile to have them consolidate the order on one pallet. Have done it a bunch of times with other shippers. NOPE!, can't do that. Even though they all have to go on a pallet to go on the boat anyway. They sent me an invoice for every case they received. Not only that they opened every case of ammo. Why you ask? "Yes, since ammo is hazmat, we are required to open the boxes to check that it is the ammo that the hazmat states   though we are supposed to tape it back closed to make sure the contents are safe.". I'm still waiting to hear back with something showing me this is a requirement to open cases of ammo.
I have been shipping ammo up here since 2004ish. NEVER had a case of ammo opened to check anything. I'll be going back to AFF from now on.

That's worth throwing an Arizona Tea at them for....

Maybe an Arnold Palmer or some green tea.

Do they open up your buddys cases of ammo?

Nope. I guess they must not like Jersey Shore rejects who live in Alaska now
