container delivery - Expedite Towing
Managing the logistics of shipping containers is not the easiest task. It’s a stressful process, especially if you’re a first-timer. If you’ve purchased a new or used shipping container, its delivery rates will vary from one state to another.
Moving shipping containers around is expensive because they require heavy-load transport trailers. Expedite Towing offers cheap towing rates for long-distance transportation. You can plan and book your long-distance heavy-load tow truck with us for shipping container transportation in San Diego.
Here are some basics you should know before transporting shipping containers.
When transporting a shipping container, you must consider the type of commodity inside it. For various cargo, you will require additional documentation. Expedite Towing doesn’t offer tow trucks for dangerous or refrigerated cargo. However, when you hire us, let us know about the cargo you want to be shipped, so we take extra care of the shipping container.
Logistics get more complicated with the dimensions of your shipping container. Make sure you choose a tow truck for shipping container transportation according to the weight and size of the container. These two factors will decide the overall costs. If there are bigger or heavier shipments, there will be additional charges along with the normal service charges.
If your shipping container is more than 20ft, it will require a bigger truck. For 20ft containers, heavy tractor-trailers do the job. Semi-trucks are also used for shipping container transportation. These are also known as “Landoll trailers”. Their operation costs are higher, but we ensure cost-effective rates for all our towing services.
For flatbed trailers, cranes, forklifts, or container handlers will be needed to load and unload the shipping containers. To offer as low costs as possible, we recommend transporting your shipping containers empty.
If you have a schedule ready, let us or your preferred towing company know when you want the container delivered. There can be unexpected delays, so keep in mind the holiday season or any upcoming events. Have a detailed time frame if you’re trying shipping container transportation for the first time.
