We’ve all been there: You’ve got an online shopping cart, loaded up with exactly what you want. During checkout, you arrive at the “Shipping Address” section, enter Guam as the state, and hold your breath. Then, you let it out in a frustrated sigh as the dreaded red letters appear on the screen:
Sorry, this item is not available to ship to Guam.
Alternatively, if you don’t get this message, you might instead watch in horror as the cost of your order nearly doubles with shipping costs and delivery surcharges. Let’s face it. There are a lot of wonderful things about living in Guam. Coordinating shipping from online retailers isn’t always one of them. However, we have some good news on that front. Our E-Ship Program has now made it easier to get these 14 types of items to Guam—and it even includes delivery right to your door. (No more standing in those long, hot USPS lines!) Plus, because you’ll be giving your online retailer a shipping address in California:
You’ll be able to order exactly what you want from any retailer who ships to the contiguous 48 states.
You’ll also be able to take advantage of those “free shipping within the continental U.S.” offers.
So without further ado, get your credit card ready in case you’re in need of . . .
1. A New Generator
Tropical storms and typhoons can technically affect Guam any time of year, not just during the usual window from late June through December. As a result, it always pays to be prepared. If you’ve been thinking about getting a new generator (or investing in one for the first time!), we can help you get it to Guam quickly.
2. Exercise Equipment
Thinking of building out a home gym? There’s no better time to put together an at-home fitness routine. However, it can be tough to get the equipment you’re looking for on Guam. When you use our E-Ship program, you’ll have your pick of retailers and types of equipment: treadmills, spin bikes (including Pelotons!), stair climbers—everything you need to stay fit at home.
3. Auto Parts
Looking to custom-fit your truck with some aftermarket parts, like custom rims, tires, and lift kits? Those types of items are perfect for our E-Ship program. Instead of special ordering from a store on Guam—or settling for parts you don’t love—get exactly what you want, and we’ll help you get it to Guam.
4. UTV Parts & Accessories
Along these same lines, we can also assist with shipping parts for Utility Task Vehicles, which have gotten popular on Guam lately. If you need to replace parts or order backups to have on hand (just in case!), we can help you ship the exact parts you need to Guam. Or, if you’re planning on customizing your UTV with specialty lights, bumpers, or tires, we can help you move these items as well.
5. Home Improvement Items & Furniture
Imagine your dream kitchen. What if you could make that dream a reality with the exact tiles, countertops, cabinets, or light fixtures you’re looking for—and get all those materials easily shipped to Guam?
And why stop with your kitchen? We can help you ship carpeting, flooring, and even furniture. If you’ve ever fallen in love with a couch on Wayfair only to discover they won’t ship it to Guam, our E-Ship Program can help. We can work with just about any online home improvement retailer who will ship to California. This is your chance to design the home you’ve always wanted, and we’ll deliver it all right to your front door.
6. Garden Items & Patio Furniture
If you’re beautifying your indoor space, why not do the same with your outdoor space? Larger lawn and garden items can often be difficult to ship to Guam. However, we can assist with both heavy and oversized items, such as greenhouses, tents, lawn decorations, and bulky outdoor accessories.
We’ll help you ship patio furniture, too. Looking for a new table and set of chairs for your yard? Maybe a few Adirondack chairs so you have more outdoor seating—or a few benches? If the retailer you’re buying from will ship it to California, we’ll move it the rest of the way to Guam for you.
7. Baby Items: Cribs, Strollers, Car Seats, and More
Ask any parent, and they’ll tell you that having a baby is much easier when you have the right items at your disposal. Whether you’re looking for the perfect stroller, car seat, crib, changing table, or some other kind of hard-to-ship baby item, we can get it to Guam for you.
Want to give a new mom or dad a special gift to celebrate the arrival of their new baby? E-Ship also works great for family members. If you want to gift a special piece of nursery furniture or a stroller to make getting out and about easy for new parents, talk to our experts. They’ll help you arrange for shipping to Guam.
8. Oversized and Motorized Kids’ Toys
Items for older kids can also hit a few snags when shipping to Guam. Bigger toys—like Little Tykes Big Wheel Tricycles—can be expensive to ship simply because they’re so large.
Additionally, electric mini-bikes or an electric mini-cars for children can also be challenging to ship. The lithium batteries they contain are often classified as hazardous goods by carriers. As a result, it can be hard to find a carrier willing to send items like this to Guam.
However, the experts who run our E-Ship program know how to handle all of these items—motorized or not. Just get in touch, and we’ll help you move them easily to Guam.
9. eBay Orders
Have you ever had to explain to a seller on eBay that Guam is a U.S. territory? Or maybe you’ve located the exact item you’re looking for, but realized you couldn’t bid on it because the seller doesn’t ship to Guam? Our E-Ship program works for eBay orders, too, since you’ll only be asking your seller to ship your item to California. Whatever you’re looking for, you can bid with confidence, knowing we’ll help you get your item to Guam.
Note: In general, our E-Ship program is most cost-effective for larger items, but feel free to reach out to us for a quote! We’d be happy to help you do the calculations.
10. Mountain Bikes
Mountain bikes are big on Guam right now. When you buy one locally, it can get pricey fast. However, depending on the bike you’re looking for, it might be cheaper to buy one online and have it shipped to Guam via our E-Ship Program. If you’ve been shopping for a mountain bike on your own, give us a call, and we can help you price out the cost for shipping it to Guam.
11. E-Bikes
The same is true for e-bikes. You’ll find a wider variety online, and you might even find a better price. However, these speedier, easier-to-pedal bikes are tricky to ship. Because they use lithium batteries, like the electric children’s toys we mentioned above, many carriers won’t move them to Guam.
Let us handle it all for you. Pick out the bike you want, call us for a quote, have it sent to our warehouse in California, and our experts will take care of it from there!
12. Appliances
Although several stores on Guam sell appliances, sometimes you’re looking for something a little different. Maybe you want a washer with additional bells and whistles that the models on Guam don’t have, like a sensor-dry feature that minimizes electricity use. Or maybe you’re looking for a kitchen stove in a specific color or style that will match perfectly with your décor. Either way, we can help you get the exact appliance you want, delivered right to your door in Guam.
13. Safes
If you keep valuables in your house and want to protect them, you might consider installing a safe. However, full-size safes can weigh anywhere from 90 lbs. all the way up to 1000+, which makes them tough and expensive to ship. However, our E-Ship program can move your safe to Guam for you—and our home delivery service will save you from a challenging pick-up!
14. Almost Anything from an Online Retailer That Won’t Ship Directly to Guam
If you’ve been keeping a list of the online stores that ship to Guam (we have!), that list just got a lot longer. When you use our E-Ship Program, we can help you move just about all of your online purchases to Guam. No more holding your breath when entering “Guam” as your shipping address.
That said, there are a few exceptions: We have some restrictions around hazardous materials, including ammunition and explosives. Additionally, depending on size and weight, some shipments will be more cost-effective than others.
