We are moving to Pahoa area in a couple of months and have been researching household goods shipping containers. Matson looks good but the container arrives on a set of wheels that puts the floor 4 feet off the ground - and no ramps. I can load it fine on this end, but unloading it there myself is another story. I looked at letting Matson handle it, but the hourly charges are pretty steep if the truck time goes over 4 hrs from the dock. Neither MAtson nor the local companies seem to rent 12' x 2' ramps - does anyone have experience with this?
