Container Shipping Services You Can Rely On in Massachusetts

Transporting a container is easy when done by a company with knowledge and resources. We’re careful when handling every container because they’re delicate to ensure they arrive safely. Before transporting any container, the expert processing your shipment must ensure it’s fully insured to protect it from damage. In addition, we inspect it and fill out a billing form to document its state before transport. We later use that form at the delivery location to confirm if your container was delivered safely. You must take photos of your container before transporting it for future comparison at the delivery location. If your container doesn’t arrive in the condition you picked it, you can file a claim with us for compensation. Contact our team today for container moving and shipping services in Massachusetts.

Moving containers requires the best trailers that can handle heavy or wide loads. The choice of a suitable trailer depends on the container size, 20 feet or 40 feet, and weight. Our container transport company has numerous types of trailers that handle oversized, heavy, or wide containers. Our logistic agents can recommend lightweight and high-strength chassis trailers because of their outstanding maneuverability, flexibility, and ability to carry 20-foot, 40-foot, and extended containers. We also use flatbed trailers that have adequate strength for container hauling. Another trailer option to hire is the Gooseneck, which can carry light to heavy containers.
Loading a container on a trailer or truck requires specialized equipment or tools. Shipping container movers first ensure the container is in perfect condition, free from damages, holes, or issues that can damage the things inside. Next, the shipping specialists moving the containers ensure the trailer is parked in the best position for proper loading. It should have all the required tie-downs to hold the container securely for safe transportation. Our container transport company uses cargo lifters, such as top pickers, driverless AGVs, forklifts, and cranes, to lift the cargo and properly position it in the trailer for securing and transportation.
