Professional Vehicle Recovery in the Aloha State
Unsurpassed Statewide Coverage Across Hawaii’s Island Chain
Speedy Repo vehicles and professionals are deployed throughout Hawaii’s islands providing comprehensive repossession services across one of the most unique island geographies in the world. Covering over 1.4 million residents across 10,931 square miles of Pacific paradise, we have developed multi-island services to meet challenges not understood by any repossession provider on the mainland United States; including, coordinating inter-island shipping of vehicles, navigating densely populated urban thoroughfares on Oahu and the limited access. cargo options to very remote ranching operations on the Big Island.
Some of Hawaii’s most difficult recoveries have been for and from unique spaces, including removing value construction equipment from Mauna Kea observatory construction projects and recovering high-end luxury boats from Honolulu Harbor in the midst of a stormy season. Our teams understand Hawaii’s economy and how it relies heavily on tourism. For example, our rental fleet recoveries in a tourist destination like Maui require careful coordination between resort operations and allowing time for guests to safely recover their personal valuables. Also, our experience on military bases have provided the protocols need to properly work around Pearl Harbor and other federal installations throughout the state.
We operate under contract across major people centers from populated metropolitan areas in Honolulu to the agricultural center of Hilo, allowing us to provide targeted, sustainable coverage for effective recoveries within Hawaii’s diverse economy, which includes tourism, defense contracting, and specialty agriculture. We know Hawaii’s economy requires knowledge of how to successfully recover specialty agricultural equipment, machinery, and vehicles used on Coffee farms, Macadamia Nut operations, and Pineapple Plantations.
