Delivering A Shipping Container In Florida

Delivering Your Shipping Container in Florida: What to Expect

In this video, you can see our E&S Equipment delivery team in action, transporting a secure shipping container to its new location in Florida. Delivering a 20-foot or 40-foot steel container requires precision, the right machinery, and deep expertise. We utilize powerful heavy-duty trucks paired with specialized tilt-bed trailers. This setup allows our drivers to carefully slide the container off the back and place it accurately on your property—without the need for a crane or heavy forklift on-site.

Why Trust E&S Equipment for Your Delivery?

Unlike many online container sellers who act as brokers and outsource their logistics to unknown third parties, we handle the delivery ourselves. When you order from us, you are getting our inventory and our trucks.

• Specialized Equipment: Our tilt-bed trailers are specifically designed for safe, level, and accurate container placement.

• Professional Drivers: Every delivery is handled by our in-house, CDL-licensed, and fully insured drivers who know how to navigate tight Florida properties and neighborhoods.

• Expedited Service: Because we aren’t waiting on third-party freight brokers, we measure our delivery times in days, not weeks.

• No Middlemen: We own our inventory, meaning you get wholesale-to-the-public pricing and a direct line of communication from purchase to drop-off.

How to Prepare Your Site for a Smooth Delivery

To ensure a seamless drop-off just like the one in the video, make sure your site is ready before our truck arrives:

• Clear the Path: Ensure there is adequate height and width clearance for a heavy-duty truck and a long trailer. Watch out for low-hanging branches, gates, or power lines.

• Check the Ground: The delivery path and the final resting spot must be firm, dry, and relatively level. Soft mud or deep sand can cause heavy equipment to get stuck.

• Plan the Placement: Decide exactly which way you want the container cargo doors to face before our driver backs in!
