Delivery Process
When ordering a 20ft used shipping container, our delivery process is designed for precision and efficiency. We use two truck types based on your site conditions:
- Tilt-Bed Truck: Ideal for easy offloading, requires 30 feet of straight, clear space, plus 10 feet in the front and 20 feet in the back for maneuvering. It also needs a 10-foot width and 16 feet of vertical clearance.
- Flatbed Truck: Suitable for locations with on-site equipment like a forklift for unloading. This option requires a minimum of 60 feet of space and side access to pick up the container. You can use a 10,000 lb forklift to lift the entire container from the truck.
Before delivery, ensure your site has enough room for the truck to maneuver. Containers can be placed in various locations, but the delivery truck needs adequate space to operate efficiently.
