Shipping Container Delivery

From standard residential deliveries to complex crane placements, Conexwest offers a complete range of container delivery solutions tailored to your site. Choose from Tilt-Bed Truck, Tilt-Bed Truck with Trailer, Flatbed Truck, or Crane Truck delivery based on your container size, site access, and placement requirements.

With delivery available in as little as 3–5 business days, our experienced team coordinates every step — from selecting the right delivery method to planning site access and any additional equipment required. We also specialize in challenging placements, including dense urban environments, restricted-access sites, and precision crane installations where standard delivery methods aren't possible.

Tilt-Bed truck

The Tilt-Bed truck can deliver containers up to 24' long, or a combination of smaller units (e.g., 2 × 10' containers). This is the smallest truck in our delivery fleet and has the tightest turning radius, making it ideal for inner-city deliveries, mountain roads, and sites with limited access.

For delivery, the truck backs into position where the container will be placed. The bed is tilted, and the container is rolled off the rear of the truck into its final position.

⚠️ Minimum 60 ft of straight-line clearance is required for delivery.

When placing your order, we will ask whether you prefer the container doors to face the cab or the rear of the truck, as this determines the final door orientation on-site.

Tilt-Bed Truck with Trailer

The Tilt-Bed truck with trailer is designed for containers up to 45 ft or multiple smaller units delivered in one trip. The trailer tilts to roll the container smoothly into its final position.

For placement, the truck backs into position at the desired drop location. The trailer bed is then tilted, and the container is rolled off the rear of the trailer into its final position.

⚠️ Minimum 100 ft of straight-line clearance is required for delivery.

When scheduling delivery, we'll ask whether you prefer the container doors to face the cab or the rear of the truck, as this determines the final door orientation on-site.

Flatbed truck

Flatbed truck delivery is designed for containers up to 45 ft and long-distance transportation. Containers remain on the trailer during delivery and must be unloaded on-site using a forklift, crane, or other suitable lifting equipment.

⚠️ On-site lifting equipment is required to complete delivery.

This delivery method is commonly used for locations more than 200 miles from one of our yard locations. Please let us know about any site access or clearance concerns, and we'll be happy to review the route before delivery.

Crane Truck

Crane truck delivery is ideal for containers up to 24 ft that require precise placement. The hydraulic crane loads and unloads containers without additional on-site equipment and can position a 20 ft container up to 25 ft away from the truck.

⚠️ All crane deliveries are performed by a certified crane operator and evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

This delivery method is ideal for placing containers over fences, onto elevated platforms, on top of other containers, or anywhere precise positioning is required.
