Professional Moving Company
As we already said, the relocation process can be really stressful and give you a lot of headaches. Therefore, in order to avoid some stress, you should plan your move ahead and, if possible, hire a professional moving company to assist with your move.
Every good moving company has a license and experienced workers. So, Moving to Hawaii will be easy and fast if you decide to hire professionals. Except for the safe and fast move, there are also a lot of other services that a moving company can provide too. Some of those services are:
Good communication with their clients
Packing and Unpacking
Safety and Transport
A wide pool of moving trucks
Insurance policy
Storage units/facilities
Special services (moving bulky, shipping your vehicle etc.)
Helicopter Tours
One of the most exciting and fun activities in Maui is a helicopter tour. You will be able to explore and see wonderful Maui Island from a "bird perspective". The tours last for a couple of hours and depend on what do you want to see and explore. There are places that you won't be able to see and explore on a boat, with a car or by walking, that's why helicopter tour is a wonderful and unique experience.
Helicopter tours are the most popular activities in Hawaii and can leave you breathless. Tours costs from 150 to 350 dollars per person. No age limit also, so you will be able to bring your kids with you too. Operators offer tours from Hana and Haleakala and West Maui and Molokai. Tours start and depart from the Kahului Heliport in West Maui. Most popular operators are Mavericks Helicopters, Blue Hawaiian Helicopters, and Air Maui also.
If you take one of the helicopter tours, you will be able to explore places in Maui that you can't reach by foot.
Snorkeling Tours
Don't forget to explore the world beneath the surrounding Pacific Ocean floor! This will be an unforgettable experience! Therefore, you should rent scuba or snorkel mask and dive in! You will see sea turtles, plenty of colorful fish and magnificent coral formations around the Islands reefs.
This is another reason why you should move with your family to Maui! The price of tours depends on the company. The average price is around 100 dollars per adult. Tours depart from nearby Maalaea Harbor in Kihei and Lahaina Harbor on the Western shore of the Maui Island.
Haleakala National Park
The Haleakala National Park, also known as Vulcano park, occupies around 30 thousand acres in Maui. The park welcomes visitors 24 hours per day. You can get a tour around the park but also you can spend time there on your own. If you want to enter the park on foot or bike, the ticket will cost 12 dollars. Also, getting in with a motorcycle will cost 20 dollars and with a car 25 dollars. The admission is valid for the three days!
Shipping your car to Hawaii is not necessary but it will make your vacation or life there easier. You will be able to visit more places and you will feel more comfortable.
Haleakala National Park welcomes visitors 24 hours per day.
Wailea Beach
The perfect beach for those who want to relax, swim or snorkel. Wailea beach is not crowded like some other beaches in Maui. Also, water is very calm and surrounding resorts giving their best to keep the beach clean.
In addition, anyone who visits Wailea beach will be able to rent all sorts and kind of equipment for water sports.
Golf
If you are not a fan of the beach you can visit one of the wonderful golf terrains, where you can play and relax. The most popular one is Kapalua's Plantation Course. This place includes a pro shop and restaurant. Also, on the Maui's northwest coast there is the Plantation Course with a spectacular view of West Maui Forest Reserve and the neighboring island, Molokai.
Maui Ocean Center
If you are facing a raining day, it's the right time to visit Maui Ocean Center. The Ocean Center is located in Ma'alaea along the southwest coast. This is a wonderful place to explore underwater life without getting into water and snorkeling.
In addition, the Maui Ocean Center is opened every day from 9 am to 5 pm. The admission costs around 30 dollars for adults and 20 dollars for kids under the age of 12. There are also family tours with a guide that costs a little bit more.
Those were some of the fun activities in Maui! So, what do you say? Start packing! Good luck and have a lot of fun!
Our experience with Wailea movers could not have been better. They were in constant contact with us through the whole experience. The men they sent to move us were efficient, knowledgeable, And did a very good job. I would use them again and recommend them to anyone that needs their services..
From start to end everyone was so helpful super through and answered all our questions. They really made us feel comfortable and made the moving transition so easy. Will recommend everyone to Wailea Movers!
I chose Wailea Movers because after my inquiry their response was quick and very informative. I actually felt comfortable enough to stop my search. Once I was ready, I called back and booked it. It was great because my move date changed and I needed to reschedule and there was no issue at all, and no fee to change my move date. The movers came when expected and worked so hard that I felt guilty. They were friendly, professional, and quick. I have moved so many times in my life, and this was clearly the best experience I've had with any moving company.Edward was super quick to respond to my inquiry, and gave me a very accurate and fair cost estimate. He was friendly and patient with me as it took me a few days to actually book the date. The whole experience from start to finish exceeded my expectations
Top notch company! Starting with Edward who came out to our locations to get us a cost estimate. Then accommodating us having to change the move date. The crew who came to move us (Ka’u, Alan, Rico, and Michael) were the best of the best. Super attentive to what needed to go and what needed extra care. Very efficient! They packed up both locations before lunch which is amazing. Awesome crew for sure! Definitely recommend this company to anyone looking to move. They took care of everything so I didn’t have to worry about shipping out stuff. I’d give them 10 stars if I could!
My move recently was not the largest or most involved but these guys treated it in the same regaurd as a huge estate. Everything from start to finish was freindly and professional. Edward was very patient scheduling the service and Alan was not only efficient but also conserned and aware of protocol. Both were great to work with and made the job of moving more of a pleasure than a burden. Highly recommend to anyone. Thanks again guys.
Great group of very hard and dedicated movers! They communicated well, showed up as expected and worked fast while ensuring our household goods were well taking care of. Highly recommend them!
By far the best moving company I’ve ever worked with. Professional, friendly and the movers took great care in moving our things. I highly recommend Wailea Movers, they are worth it!
Awesome experience with Wailea Movers and Storage! From the initial contact with James and Edward, they are so friendly and accommodating, even when we had to move our move date 3 times on them! Alan and Rico came and did our move this morning! Nicest guys and even helped us put everything back together! Great team!!!
Wailea Movers moved me a few years ago. They were so patient and just so GOOD, from the scheduling and communication to the move to paying a great price; all flawless. That’s why I called them for this move; flawless again! Exceptional and professional service with a price that’s still great, and moving me in challenging circumstances: road washouts and detours during the second round of the Kona Low storms. It’s nice to know there’s someone we can count on during a time when prices are insanely high and service at times can be abysmal. I ❤️ you guys! Mahalo nui.
All parts of my interactions with this company were ON-IT, professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. When I let them know we would handle the packing ahead of the moving date, I was emailed helpful videos showing me how to pack all the categories of items as the pros would do it. Additionally, the moving team I was provided with were careful, thorough in protecting all the pieces, and just plain enjoyable to have in my home. Highly recommend!
We used Wailea Movers during our family’s cross-country move from Maui to Kansas City, and I can honestly say the two guys who showed up were absolute pros.This wasn’t just a simple “load a couch” job. We were shipping our entire life off island, coordinating port delivery, container loading, tight timelines, and the emotional chaos of a big family relocation. These guys showed up calm, strong, efficient, and dialed in.They treated our belongings like they were their own. No rushing. No careless stacking. No attitude. Just focused, high-level execution. They were respectful to my wife and kids, careful in tight spaces, and moved with purpose the entire time.You can tell when someone takes pride in their work, and these guys absolutely did.If you're in Maui and need movers who are professional, reliable, and actually care, Wailea Movers is the move.Mahalo for helping us start our next chapter the right way. 🤙
I enjoyed very excellent service from Wailea Movers, starting with Edward, who took my order and followed through with.date changes down to Alan and Ryko, who delivered my new hot tub. I would definitely use them again.
Great to talk with these guys on the phone. Very helpful and knowledgeable and they care about moving quite a bit. James is a true moving connoisseur. Thanks again for all the help!
Edward and the moving did a phenomenal job. I would use them again. The communicated very well, worked fast, and treated all of my stuff with care. Thank you
We received the shipment from Maui and their shipments come in very beautiful and aesthetically pleasing. James the owner there is obsessed with quality. Great to see good craftsmanship in the moving business. We look forward to helping them with the last mile again. I will recommend them my customers moving to or from Maui.
Wailea Movers made my recent move from my apartment in Napili completely stress free and I can’t recommend them enough. Ka’u and Riko were absolutely outstanding from start to finish – they showed up on time, worked quickly, and handled all of my furniture and boxes with so much care and professionalism. They were friendly, efficient, and checked in with me throughout the day to make sure everything was going exactly where it needed to go, which made the whole process smooth and easy. You can tell they take pride in their work and represent Wailea Movers’ high standards and aloha spirit in the best way. If you’re moving anywhere on Maui or off island, I’d 100% use Wailea Movers again – huge mahalo to Ka’u and Riko for a true 5-star experience!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mahalo Wailea Movers!!! Excellent service and friendly crew. Made our move back to the mainland smooth and easy. Crew took extra care with all our precious items. Highly recommend them for your next move!
Can’t say anything except “No Ka Oi”!!!! Our experience from the very beginning starting with Ed our sales representative and estimator, to Alan and Rico was the best. Ed was personal, professional and knew his business. Excellent. Alan and Rico worked like they cared about what they were doing, being cautious and safe with our valuables . Working quickly but cautiously . I would expect to find our things arriving safely to their destination due to their expert attention and skills. Mahalo!!!
Excellent service from the beginning. Edward provided a competitive quote for moving belongings from Maui to Arizona, complemented by exceptional, professional packing by Alan and Rico. Highly recommend Wailea Moving and Storage.
Great people...strong communication skills...willing and able to assist beyond their scope of workJordan was lead on my move and was exemplary...always available and a pleasure to deal with
Wailea Movers are professional, thorough, creative, and knowledgeable. Very accommodating with requests and resources. They were actually fun to have around; they enjoy working together and it shows. Also very punctual and worked non-stop. Top tier! Thanks guys!!
The guys at Wailea Movers did an excellent job picking up and delivering our pool table. There were 7 of them and they were professional, friendly, knew what they were doing and took the time to carefully wrap everything so that it wouldn't get damaged. I would DEFINITELY use them again. Thanks for doing such a great job guys!
My moving experience was amazing! Malique and Kaunalu were AWESOME!!! So, so friendly and worked amazing together. Very professional! I would hire these guys again in a heartbeat! Mahalo’s🤙🏽
My dad chose Wailea Movers for me when I was moving from upcountry to Kihei all within one day. They were very helpful and communicative. They alleviated my stress with having to move with such a short time frame. I would use them again!
