Questions for this shipment: 

Question: door to door 40' your looking about $10,000 loading would be about $300 (1/20/2009)
Response: i am not looking to share my container with anyone else. i anticipate a 40 foot container for my own use. $300 only to load? that sounds really inexpensive, perhaps cheap. do they throw the stuff in or make sections in the container using the beds? (1/20/2009)
Response: this is a ballpark but its around $300, they just load you would need to pack thing in boxes or wrap you funiture and have it in your gagrge or driveway or just a certian area for them, and this container would be jusy yours. (1/21/2009)
Response: ok, i understand. the bid would then be to pick up and drop off the container. as well as to transport it door to door. is there a separate bid for insurance. value approx. $22,000. also, you cancelled your first bid, can i get a fixed bid with a fixed price? the bid will not include loading or unloading. thanks. (1/21/2009)
Response: i will confirm it for you, insurance would be $420 to cover $22000 (1/21/2009)
Response: and please, when you have a moment, confirm the price for the shipment to drop off canister (on thursday-anytime or friday-AM), pick up 5 days later, ship, drop off canister, pick up 5 days later. thanks. so far, you are at the top based on service! (1/21/2009)
Question: wrapping and loading the container right is important...Is $12,500 for 40' with wrapping and loading and including materials and labor to load,shipping to Hi and taking truck to driveway what your looking for and you unload??? Mark (1/21/2009)
Response: thank you for your inquiry. my stuff is already boxed. there are about 200 boxes of varying sizes. they are marked to indicate room, and whether or not the contents are fragile (even though they are individually wrapped in material and bubbles). the only things that would need wrapping are pictures and furniture. there is 1 queen size bed. a large book case that comes into pieces approx 6, 8-foot x 3 foot boards are the big parts of the case. 3-file cabinets. 3 chest of drawers, 2 night stands. 1 bed set (wood). a few tables. a desk (that comes into pieces for the most part). 1 couch and love seat. 6 pieces of ply wood are also going. there might be some empty storage cabinets from the garage if there is room. 3 metal racks. 1 ceramic kiln (500#). i have about 10 pictures in frames that need wrapping. with this info, is there any change in price on your bid? what would be the cost if you just leave the container here and then pick it up 5 days later? (1/21/2009)
Response: Let me review and I'll place bid by tomorrow morning... Mark (1/21/2009)
Response: awesome. oh, i probably have 1 or 2 more little (coffee or end) tables, 1 drafting table that folds down, book cases that fold down, things like this that i just had not considered. i also have a big heavy tool case, on big wheels. 2 computer monitors, 2 printers, 1 cpu (all need wrapping). there will be some Coleman camping ice containers with stuff and plastic boxes that stack. no large appliances at all. it is possible there might be one single bed as well, but not sure. i really was hoping to have a 40 foot container, to myself. and not share it, exclusive. is that possible, and at what price.? thanks again. your service is superb! (1/21/2009)
Response: Still working on quotes...I'll get one done by tomorrow morning as I'm looking for best way yet and best price... Mark (1/22/2009)
Question: I can give you 2 qoutes now...one for container only and you load and one with us loading and I really recomend that for wrapping and loading correctly...You have container dropped and you load is $9,100 and we will come wrap and load you for 1,000 more...you supply wrapping material of paper pads and Flexcore cardboard for shipping container wrapping.The other issue will be on the unload you will need a ramp since the container will be on a trailer a load and unload etc...I think it would be easier for me to bid 12,500 for the full job including wrapping material,load and unload all included in bid...since you'll get nickled/dimed and have to manage to many things FYI Mark (1/22/2009)
Question: I see you took my information but asked Shipping shack the question on ground etc...I'm telling you I'll bid $12,500 and that's $1,000 lower than chating before but if you accept $9,100 you'll be paying for ramps,supplies and unload ramps and labor to load and be at $12,500 anyway with alot of headaches....Let me know a.s.a.p. Thanks, Mark (1/22/2009)
