The Do’s and Don’ts of Heavy Container Towing

DO: Call a Professional Early

Making a reservation ahead of time makes sure you have the correct tools and plans, which saves time and worry. We'll look into your container needs and provide you clear answers right away.

DO: Check Site Accessibility

Make sure that big trucks can get to the drop-off and pick-up places. A clean road speeds things up and stops delays from happening.

DO: Secure the Contents

If your container is full, everything within should be tightly secured so that it doesn't move around while it's being moved. It's a safety safeguard that keeps both your goods and our crew safe.

DON’T: Rely on Inexperienced Operators

Towing containers is not the same as hauling a car; it needs certain tools and knowledge. If you don't know how to handle your container, goods, or property, you might harm them.

DON’T: Overload Your Container

Not only is it sensible to stay inside the weight limit, it's also necessary. Overloading can damage equipment and cause expensive accidents or violations

DON’T: Skip the Permit Check

Some operations that involve towing, including moving big items, need specific permissions. We guide you through that procedure so that everything is legal and aboveboard.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • Do you provide shipping container towing for both loaded and empty units?

    Yes, we move both full and empty containers in and around Kahului. To handle different weights, our staff applies the necessary tools and safety rules. Just tell us what you want to move, and we'll take care of the rest.

  • What types of vehicles are used for cargo container towing?

    We employ heavy-duty tow vehicles that are made for moving enormous amounts of stuff, such as flatbeds and trailers that can hold containers. To make sure they are safe and reliable, each vehicle is serviced on a regular basis. To keep things safe and make sure they go well, our drivers are certified in hauling containers.

  • What’s the difference between freight container towing and standard towing?

    Standard towing usually means pulling passenger cars or light-duty trucks. Towing freight containers, on the other hand, needs specific trucks and handling. Containers are bigger, heavier, and generally need special permission or route planning. That's why you need to engage pros like 808 Towing that have done this before.

  • What is intermodal container towing, and how does it work?

    Towing intermodal containers means moving containers that go between ships, railroads, and trucks. We assist in filling in such gaps by hauling your container to or from ports, yards, or warehouses. It's an important aspect of Hawaii's supply chain, and we're happy to help with local logistics.

  • Can your container transport towing handle oversized or custom-built containers?

    For sure! We have the skills and knowledge to handle odd sizes and bespoke loads. We look at the task, determine safe routes for transport, and get any permissions we need. We will discover a safe way to relocate it if it can be moved.
