Yes. Heavy Equipment Transport provides container transport services connected to Kentucky’s river terminals, managing drayage, chassis, and interstate line-haul. Our expertise ensures containers move efficiently from water to road.

Local moves in Louisville are often completed the same day, while statewide deliveries take 1–2 days depending on distance. Heavy Equipment Transport provides real-time tracking so you know your container’s exact status.
