Another option to take the bus between Kuala Perlis and Kangar is to ask one of the long distance buses to drop you off in Kangar / K. Perlis.
Most buses to and from the port will make a stop at Kangar bus station.
I have done this before (when the Maraliner buses where not operating) and got on a KL bound bus that dropped me off in Kangar.
You will have to ask one of the drivers directly (they charged me 5 MYR).
