Shipping Container Delivery
Shipping Container Delivery
How we deliver shipping containers.
Tilt-bed truck
The tilt-bed truck can deliver containers up to 24’ long or a combination thereof (i.e.: 2 x 10’ containers). This is the smallest truck in our delivery fleet and has the tightest turning radius. It is suited for inner-city deliveries, mountain roads, and limited access sites.
This truck is backed up to where you want the container placed; the bed is titled and the container is rolled off the back of the truck into position. This truck requires at least 60-feet of straight-line clearance to safely complete this delivery. When placing your order, we will ask whether you want the container loaded with the doors facing the cab or the rear of the truck as this determines the final door placement at the site after delivery.
Please let us know if there are clearance concerns at the site or on route to the site. We will be happy to preview the route before delivery. Rental storage containers 24’ and smaller are delivered and picked up using these trucks
Tilt-bed truck and trailer
The tilt-bed truck and trailer combo can deliver containers up to 45’ in length or a combination thereof (i.e: 2 x 20’ containers, 4 x 10’ containers). This truck requires 100-feet of straight-line clearance to complete the delivery. First, the truck is backed up to where you want the container placed. Next, the trailer is titled and then, the container is rolled off the back of the trailer. When booking your order delivery, we’ll ask whether the container is to be loaded with the doors facing the cab or the rear of the truck. This positioning determines the final door placement at the delivery site.
Please let us know if there are any clearance concerns at the site or on route to the site. We will be happy to preview the route before delivery to confirm the delivery can be completed. Our 40’ standard, 40’ high cube, 45’ high cube, or 2 x 20’ rental storage containers are delivered and picked up on these trucks.
Flat-bed truck
The flat-bed truck can deliver containers up to 45’ in length. Unlike the tilt-bed truck option, we are not able to place containers on the ground. A forklift, crane, or other offloading equipment is required at the site to complete delivery. Generally, this delivery truck option is selected if your delivery location is more than 200 miles from the location of one of our yards.
Please let us know if there are any clearance concerns at the site or on route to the site. We will be happy to preview the route before delivery to confirm the delivery can be completed.
Crane truck
The crane truck can deliver containers up to 24’ in length or a combination thereof. This truck can also pull a trailer if multiple 20’ (or smaller) containers are to be delivered to the same location. A crane is mounted between the cab and the deck to load and offload containers. Under standard circumstances, the crane can place a 20’ container about 25’ away from the truck. This truck is operated by a certified crane operator.
The crane truck is a great delivery option if the container needs to be placed over a fence, on an elevated platform, stacked on top of another container, or if the precision placement is of utmost importance. Please note, the feasibility of every delivery placement is assessed on a case-by-case basis.
