What is the Price of Shipping and Moving a Container in Tennessee?

Shipping a container in Tennessee costs about $2.95 and $3.10 per mile. That price varies and is determined based on the weight, size, distance, season, and fuel cost. For example, the further the distance between the pick-up and drop-off locations, the more you pay due to the time and resources spent. Additionally, if you require extra services such as loading and unloading assistance, you will pay more than someone with their own loading equipment. Regardless of the specifications of your shipment, we ensure you get the best rates in the industry. Contact our team today with information on your shipment for a free estimate.

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.

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.
