Dedicated to the Community Since 1975

TOTE is committed to the communities we serve. This dedication has fostered a special relationship with Alaskan and Washington communities through participation in a number of charitable and non-profit organizations.

At TOTE  we give back to the community in the form of monetary grants, event sponsorships, in-kind freight donations, employee matching and volunteer grants.

Since setting sail as a one-ship company in 1975, TOTE  has become the premier provider of ocean transportation service between the ports of Anchorage, Alaska and Tacoma, Washington. TOTE operates a fleet of (RO/RO) cargo ships in addition to providing overland highway and intermodal connections throughout greater Alaska, Canada and the Lower 48.
