Questions & Answers

Question: That width would require pilot cars, you leaving the blade/c-frame on, or taking them off and shipping them separately?
Shipping Customer
No, I don't want to remove the blade. I have done it in the past and I ended spent more money on both inland and ocean shipping. I think a BOND is needed because the unit is going to port in The United States for export to Africa.
Shipping Customer
You may include the cost of pilot cars in your quote.
Shipping Customer
You may compare the option of taking the unit to the Port of Baltimore 21230 as a second choice if that will be more convenient and cheaper.
Service Provider
Sounds good, I'll supply pricing to ship it to Baltimore, that's a better location for us to get a reload back to Canada. Quote will include the pilot cars, weight permits, width permits, and cargo insurance required, as well as IN BOND service. Thanks, Nick

I understand, I can get it done at any port you want, just need to start searching for the carrier now. Have you already sent the title to the port, or the pickup location will be given the machine title to the carrier? Just asking because if the title is not in, the port won't receive the unit, and also, when is it ready to pick up? And when is the latest you want to have this delivered?
Shipping Customer
Thank you once again. The release document are ready. The port document are ready too. The unit will be ready to be moved from next week Wednesday. Although I am very flexible about the dates.
Service Provider
That's great, just to confirm, the title and the port document will be given to the driver at pick up or you will send it by email?
Shipping Customer
They will be emailed to you once I accepted your quote.
Service Provider
Great, I'll start working on your unit tomorrow morning to find you a carrier, just give me some time. Given the fact that this load will require escorts, I will first get you a carrier and then put it in a quote so I can provide the best price possible, thanks and have a good evening!
Service Provider
Hello! What are the pickup times for Wednesday?
Shipping Customer
Have you submitted a quote? Pick up times are Monday through Friday 9am to 4pm
