Help delivering and offloading shipping contain - jandj - 05-09-2014

Hi Punawebbers, I have always gotten great assistance and advice here! We are looking for a someone with a truck that can pick up a fully loaded 40 foot shipping container from the dock in Hilo and deliver it to our place in HPP, then offload it onto the ground. Got a quote from a trucking company in Hilo and am looking for a better deal. Looking at a December/January time frame. If anyone knows of someone who can help with this, please let me know! Thanks! All you Mom's out there, have a fantastic weekend!

You should post what the actual quote was, so that others can let you know if it's "reasonable" or not.

I would recommend Conens for moving the container. There's not a lot of players in this field. Sometimes the price is the price. Those trucks and drivers/operators are specialized and very expensive (they have a moveable rear axle (the trucks not the drivers)). Considering the equipment cost, the price is very reasonable.
