Container shipping service
Need to send large quantities of supplies or excess materials to another location? Don’t waste time and money packing everything into cardboard boxes. Instead, consider durable shipping containers that provide plenty of open space for large quantities of material. Shipping containers allow you to send goods overseas with ease.
With our Container shipping service you can neatly and safely store everything from company documents and old computer equipment to excess inventory and tools. A storage container company can deliver the containers to your site allowing you to fill them to capacity. Once it’s full, the company can then load the stocked shipping containers onto flatbed trucks and send it where you need it to go.
Shipping containers considerations:
The average 40′ shipping container weighs around 10,000 pounds. In order to deliver it to your location, you need to make sure you have a 75′ x 100′ area of land that can support that amount of weight and provide plenty of clearance to move in and out of the container. Also, the ground must be level and firm to prevent tipping or tilting.
While you can store just about anything in shipping containers, there may be some restrictions. Different laws may prohibit shipping certain items across state lines such as flammable or combustible materials or waste. There are also specific guidelines for using shipping containers to transport livestock. Check with your local government to see what’s permitted and make sure the container company is familiar with the laws.
You can add certain features to shipping containers to make storing items for transport easier. Extra man doors can be built on the sides of the container to allow you to enter the container from the sides or to move freely between two adjacent containers. Partitions can section off different areas to keep certain materials separate during shipment. Finally, a lockbox ensures your contents will remain protected inside the container until it reaches its destination.
To ship moving containers internationally, you will need to have a container, insurance and a company that moves the containers. There is more paperwork when shipping goods across international waters. Many companies provide international shipping as well as packing services so everything being moved is documented. Because of the paperwork involved, it is a good idea to use a moving company that has years of experience moving containers internationally. The shipping containers should be sealed with a tag number before it leaves your sight.
