What Lynden Does Every Day
Central Alaska
Central Alaska is home to the Port of Anchorage where 90% of the state’s goods pass through.
Central Alaska is the most accessible part of the state so providing quality and dynamic service to this territory is essential for Lynden. This region of the state can be accessed easily and therefore presents the most options for transport including steamship, barge, road, air and rail. Lynden provides services for many markets in Central Alaska including retail, grocery, oil field, military and seafood. Multimodal combinations allow for Lynden to ensure customers are receiving the service they need and the delivery time they desire.
Southeast Alaska
Southeast Alaska offers a unique landscape and is home to tight-knit communities.
All Southeast Alaska destinations are served by Lynden in some capacity. Some destinations are only accessible by boat or plane. Despite these limitations Lynden is able to provide quality service to their customers through multimodal transportation options. Lynden serves a variety of markets in Southeast Alaska including seafood, grocery, mining and more. Lynden puts their customers first and values the relationships formed in the communities they serve. Customers can count on Lynden to provide consistent arrival times with limited hours of variability.
Western Alaska/Arctic
Western Alaska and the Arctic region’s unique location, distinctive weather and dynamic market provides the opportunity for Lynden to be creative in their transportation solutions.
The territory presents challenges due to weather, infrastructure and geography. However, Lynden is prepared to answer customer needs by providing a mix of services including barges, aircraft and hovercraft. Lynden accommodates many industries in Western Alaska and the Arctic region, including but not limited to construction, seafood, healthcare, retail, machinery and vehicles.
