When you’re relocating a large amount of personal or commercial cargo, shipping containers offer unmatched flexibility, security, and efficiency. At Big Creek Movers, we specialize in Shipping Container Moving Services that are engineered for reliability, precision, and stress-free logistics—whether you’re moving across town, across the country, or to another continent.
Our professional team is trained and equipped to handle all types of container moves, from 20-foot and 40-foot containers to customized high-cube or reefer units. With decades of experience in heavy-duty transport, lifting, and container logistics, we deliver a seamless experience designed around your timeline and your cargo.
Shipping Container Movers are professionals who transport full or empty shipping containers from one location to another using specialized equipment and logistics support. This service can be part of a larger residential, commercial, or industrial move or it can be a standalone operation involving container delivery, loading, unloading, and transport.
Whether your container is stored in a port, a yard, a construction site, or your private property, Big Creek Movers has the right equipment and skillset to ensure smooth, damage-free relocation.
Shipping container moves are used by:
Homeowners using portable storage for self-pack moves
Construction companies relocating container offices or equipment storage
Retail and industrial clients moving bulk inventory
Exporters and importers transporting goods to or from ports
Tiny home owners relocating container homes
Farmers or businesses using containers for tool and material storage
No matter your use case, our team works with you to understand your needs and provide a fully tailored solution.
At Big Creek Movers, we handle the full spectrum of container types, including:
20-Foot Standard Containers
40-Foot Standard and High-Cube Containers
Open-Top Containers
Flat-Rack Containers
Refrigerated Containers (Reefers)
Tank Containers
Custom-Built Storage Containers
Modified Container Homes or Offices
Whether the container is fully packed, partially loaded, or empty, we provide the right lift and transport configuration to ensure safe handling throughout the move.
We use heavy-duty lift systems, including tilt-bed trucks, side-lifters, cranes, and forklifts, ensuring we can move your container safely—even in tight, uneven, or remote locations.
Our dispatch and logistics team ensures your container arrives on time. We coordinate everything from pickup windows to drop-off and retrieval—no surprises, no delays.
We secure all containers with locking mechanisms, bracing, and proper anchoring during transit, following DOT and OSHA safety guidelines.
Need help filling the container? Our trained movers can assist with careful, space-optimized packing, bracing, and loading to reduce shifting during transport.
From a local move across town to long-haul cross-country and international delivery, our team can manage multi-modal container logistics tailored to your destination.
All container shipments come with live GPS tracking, giving you full visibility and peace of mind during transport.
We start with a conversation to understand your project, including container type, location, cargo, and destination. Our team assesses accessibility, weight, permits, and transport requirements.
We’ll obtain any required transport permits for over-dimensional or road-restricted routes. We also handle site coordination for container placement or crane access if needed.
We assign the appropriate truck, trailer, and lifting mechanism. Our vehicles include tilt-beds, step-decks, roll-off systems, and boom trucks depending on the situation.
On the day of the move, our team safely loads the container from your location, using hydraulic lifts or cranes to minimize tilt, prevent cargo shift, and avoid damage.
We use DOT-compliant transport methods and experienced drivers to deliver your container efficiently, whether it’s going five miles or five hundred.
At your destination, we carefully position the container exactly where you need it. Whether you’re dropping it on a driveway, construction site, or foundation pad, our team ensures precise placement.
We manage everything—equipment, transport, paperwork, and manpower—so you don’t need to coordinate with multiple providers.
Our specialized container equipment minimizes movement and ensures the container stays level during load and transit.
Instead of waiting on generic freight companies or managing the move yourself, we offer a faster, safer, and often more affordable solution.
Our team is trained specifically in handling large containers and their contents. We know what it takes to protect your investment.
From tight city streets to muddy job sites, we’ve handled every imaginable scenario. We bring the right gear to every job—no guesswork.

At Big Creek Movers, we don’t offer cookie-cutter solutions. Every container move is unique, and we provide custom quotes and strategies based on:
Container dimensions and weight
Contents and fragility
Access and terrain conditions
Distance and timing requirements
State and local transportation laws
If your container needs special lifting (such as crane-only access or narrow alleys), we plan every detail in advance to ensure the move is smooth and safe.
As part of our commitment to sustainability, we practice fuel-efficient logistics and partner with eco-responsible carriers when moving containers long distance. We also encourage container re-use for sustainable storage and housing options.
Empty or secure contents to avoid cargo shift
Label fragile items clearly and secure them inside
Ensure access to the container (clear surrounding space)
Measure entrance points and container dimensions for fit
Reinforce doors and locks before transport
Notify building or site managers if access equipment like cranes or lifts will be used
Moving containers might seem straightforward, but DIY approaches can lead to serious issues:
Improper lifting can bend, break, or compromise the container structure.
Unbalanced loading can lead to container tipping.
Road violations may occur if your container exceeds local limits.
Injury risks from heavy equipment handling are high without training.
Avoid the risks. Trust Big Creek Movers—we have the experience, equipment, and credentials to get the job done right.
