Do I Need a Crane or Forklift to Unload My Shipping Container?
No. We’ll deliver your container directly to the ground with a roll-off trailer. You don’t need a forklift or a crane, as long as you have space for the truck to pull out from underneath the container and drive away after it’s dropped.
Key points
- We deliver our containers on specialty roll-off trailers, so we’ll put your container directly on the ground.
- No forklift or crane is needed at delivery.
- Make sure you’re comparing apples to apples on delivery charges—some of our competitors deliver on flatbed trailers and require unloading.
Details
Most people don’t have a crane big enough to handle a shipping container, so we bring the container to you on a roll-off trailer and put it directly on the ground.
