Sourcing a shipping container is easy enough. Getting a price from a shipping line is easy enough BUT
Has anyone shipped a container from the UK? How or where do you load the container? The places selling containers don't allow loading, they will only deliver. Maybe I'm blind to the obvious because to my way of thinking, the most sensible solution would be to get the container to an inland transfer station and take the cargo to the container to load. They should have the means to handle a loaded container at a transfer station right? Shipping lines. Quote a 'precarriage' or 'Inland Handling Charge' which is for picking up the container at 'door' and taking it to the dock.
I'd be grateful of any advice
