What is the Cost of Shipping and Moving a Container in Missouri?

Shipping a container in Missouri costs between $2.95 and $3.10 per mile. However, that‘s just an estimate; the cost varies from shipment to shipment depending on the size, mode of transport, distance, season, and fuel costs. For example, Missouri is known for snow, which negatively affects the transport industry due to the poor condition of roads. During winter, transport costs are relatively high compared to summer due to the scarcity of drivers, and insurance costs increase due to the high risk of damage. Our company ensures that you get the best container moving rates regardless of the time of your booking.

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.
