Moving a container in Washington costs about $2.95 and $3.10 per mile. That cost is an average and fluctuates from shipment to shipment depending on the size, weight, distance, fuel costs, mode of transport, and season. For example, transporting a container during summer might cost less than in winter. That’s because of the high availability of drivers and the lower risks involved.

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
