Container delivery and movement
Storage and shipping containers delivered, collected and repositioned, and lifted into place rather than dragged.
Detail
A container is easy to move and easy to get wrong. Dropped in the wrong spot, on ground that will not take it, or at an angle that means the doors never shut properly again.
With a crane on the lorry the container is lifted and placed rather than slid off a tilt bed, which means it can go behind a building, over a wall, onto blocks or into a yard a trailer would never reach.
We deliver, collect and reposition containers across Cornwall and Devon, including moving one across a site when a build has moved on and it is in the way.

Questions
Common questions
- What size containers can you move?
- Standard 10ft and 20ft containers are the usual work, within the 10 ton limit. Tell us the size and whether it is loaded, because a full container is a different job from an empty one.
- Can you move a container that is already full?
- Sometimes, depending on the weight and how the load is secured inside. It is worth a conversation before the day rather than finding out on site.
- What do I need to have ready?
- Somewhere firm and level for it to sit, and clear access for a lorry with a crane. If you are not sure the ground will take it, say so and we will look at it before we lift.
