Fast Freight in Southeast Alaska

We offer Fast Freight marine services for Southeast Alaska

Contact Melino’s Marine Services on VHF channel 16 or call 808-754-2602.

When you need freight moved fast across Southeast Alaska—remote beaches, tight docks, rough weather—Melino’s Marine Services gets it done. Our beachable landing craft and fast-response workboats handle loads, tough tides, and quick turnarounds so your gear, materials, and people arrive where they’re needed.

Not sure if it’ll fit or if the site is workable? Call us—we’ll talk through tides, draft, beach grade, and a load plan.
