Pick-Up

A member of our team will reach out to coordinate your pick-up. With this option, you are responsible for ensuring you have a suitable vehicle and the proper equipment to safely offload your container on your property.

 

Tilt-Bed Delivery

If you select tilt-bed delivery, your shipping container will be delivered on a tilt-bed trailer. This is a specialized piece of equipment that is towed by either a hot shot truck or standard truck cab. Then, the front of the bed is raised so the container slides safely to the ground as the driver slowly drives forward.

To facilitate delivery on a tilt-bed trailer, you will need:

  • Length Clearance: 100ft (30.5m)
  • Height Clearance: 15ft (4.5m)*
  • Width Clearance: 12ft (3.65m)

 

Note: Any low-hanging wires at the drop-site must be at least 18ft off the ground for the trailer to tilt safely.

 

To learn more about these delivery methods, consult our shipping container delivery guide.
