There are a lot of reasons to love living in Alaska. One thing that isn’t so great about it, though, is how difficult it is to receive shipments here.
If you’ve ever been trying to order something from Wayfair, only to find out that they don’t ship to Alaska, then you know the feeling we’re talking about.
Well, Carlile decided that enough was enough, and we decided to do something about it. Thanks to MyConnect, you can have your Wayfair orders forwarded to one of our package pick-up terminals in Alaska for you to pick up whenever it is convenient.
Wayfair is a popular online retailer that, like many others, doesn’t ship to Alaska. The reason? Well, the logistic challenges of shipping large or oddly shaped items to Alaska can cause expenses to go up. Consequently, it’s understandable why Wayfair (and other retailers) have chosen not to offer to ship to this state.
But at Carlile, we understand how important it is for Alaskans to be able to get the products they need and want, which is why we’ve made it our mission to get those products here.
MyConnect is a service from Carlile that allows us to ship packages from retailers who don’t typically ship to Alaska directly to one of our terminal locations near you.
Here’s how it works:
You can ship everything from small accessories to entire orders of Wayfair furniture. No matter what you need, we can get it to you.
You can shop at Wayfair as usual and have your products delivered straight to our terminals in Alaska using MyConnect.
As the #1 choice for shipping in the region, we see it as our duty to ensure that everyone in Alaska has the same access to products and services as those living in the lower 48. So whether you’re looking for a new couch or just a few small items, Carlile can get it to you.
