Full cost breakdown

How much does it really cost to move to Kīhei, HI?

Kihei lines Maui's sunny, dry south shore with condos and beach rentals, and every off-island shipment first crosses water. Mainland goods arrive by ocean container at Kahului Harbor, then truck south to Kihei; a 2-bedroom that way runs $11,250–$13,500. On-island or interisland jobs run about $3,425–$4,100 for a 2-bedroom and $2,475–$2,975 for a 1-bedroom, before the harbor and barge steps are added.

What drives your moving cost

The cost driver unique to Kihei is the water leg. Moving from Oahu means loading onto the Young Brothers barge for the interisland run, then unloading and trucking from Kahului Harbor down to the south shore — an extra handling step Oahu-to-Oahu moves never see. Add Hawaii's highest-in-the-nation cost of living, $0.40+/kWh electricity, 4.5% GET, and condo elevator or loading-zone limits common in Kihei's resort buildings.

What else to budget for in Hawaii

  • Interisland barge: Oahu-to-Maui loads ride the Young Brothers barge — budget for barge fees plus port handling both ends.
  • Harbor-to-Kihei trucking: Container goods land at Kahului Harbor and truck roughly 10 miles south to the coast.
  • On-island rate: A same-island 2-bedroom generally runs $3,425–$4,100.
  • Condo access: Resort-building elevators, loading windows, and parking limits can raise crew hours.
  • GET 4.5%: Hawaii's excise tax is added to moving services on top of freight.
