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

The price of transporting a container in Rhode Island is about $2.95 and $3.10 per mile. However, that’s just an estimate and not a conclusive cost because it varies from shipment to shipment depending on the number of containers you’re transporting, their sizes, the distance between pick-up and drop-off locations, time of the year, whether you require loading assistance and fuel costs. Rhode Island is one of the states where snow and shipping a container during winter might increase the cost of transport significantly due to the challenges faced and the scarcity of drivers. We ensure you get the best rates regardless of when you want your container shipped. Book our container shipping services in Rhode Island today!

What kind of trailer do you use to move a container?

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.

How do you load a container on a trailer?

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.

Do I need permits to ship a container?

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.

Do you provide cranes for loading and unloading containers?

Yes, we have cranes that help us load and offload your container from trailers and other means of transportation. The numerous cranes for loading and unloading include crawler, tower, overhead, floating, and gantry cranes with different applications. Tower cranes are state-of-the-art equipment that can lift containers to and from trailers during intermodal shipping. Overhead cranes help in lifting heavy containers in our shipyards.
