Oklahoma Shipping Container Transport Company

In Oklahoma, transporting shipping containers requires specialized vehicles like chassis, tilt beds, sideloaders, and gooseneck trailers. Designed to safely carry standard 20-foot and 40-foot containers, as well as larger ones, these vehicles ensure smooth delivery to warehouses and construction sites.

When sending or receiving shipping containers in Oklahoma, make sure you have enough space of about 60 to 130 feet to move them around safely. Look out for power lines and trees overhead, and make sure the ground beneath is sturdy. It's also important to know the local rules, such as Newark's requirement for a 5-foot space from property lines. If you're dealing with smaller shipments, consider using Less Than Container Load (LCL) services to save money.

If you're moving large equipment in Oklahoma, be aware of permit requirements. Loads over 80,000 pounds, wider than 8 feet 6 inches, taller than 13 feet 6 inches, or longer than 53 feet require a special permit from the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT). Separate permits are needed for local areas and the Oklahoma Turnpike as well.

In Oklahoma, your containers are usually picked up within 7 to 10 business days if you choose the standard service.

Grade A containers in Oklahoma are high-quality, gently used shipping containers that are in great shape. They have very little rust, dents, or scratches and are often called "one-trip" containers because they've usually only been used once. These containers are very strong and can keep out wind and water, making them perfect for long-term storage or for people looking to customize them for different uses.
