Transporting Furniture, Personal Belongings, Household Goods, Cars, Building Materials, Tools, Lumber, Heavy Equipment, Machinery, and Miscellaneous Goods in Columbia, Missouri

Container Transport is the solution for clients transporting half and fully loaded containers in Columbia, Missouri. For instance, when moving household goods, we assist our clients by collecting their container after they have rented it, delivering it for packing, and then transporting it to the final destination. When packing, wrap fragile goods in bubble wrap, cloth, or blankets to protect them from shock. Additionally, please pack the items according to their weight, with the heavier items, including furniture, placed on the floor and the lighter ones stacked on top. That’s a great way of ensuring proper weight distribution. Glassware and other items should be further sorted and packed in boxes or cartons, as this ensures labeling and proper handling. If you wish to move the car into the container, we provide straps to secure it. You can use more convenient means of travel, including air travel, to reach your destination.

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.
Yes, permits are a vital requirement when shipping a container locally or internationally. Some local, state, international, and federal guidelines, regulations, and laws require you to have permits based on the type of goods you are transporting and the final destination of your cargo. As a renowned legitimate transportation company, we navigate the shipping industry and regulations to ensure our clients get all the necessary permits to ship their containers safely without legal issues.
Yes, we have cranes that help us load and offload your container from trailers and other means of transportation.
