        Wish my guy was closer to you. He would do it for a whole lot less.

          I'm going to hire a tandem axle wrecker to pick up and haul a loaded 20 footer. If that goes well, he'll be hauling a second loaded one.

                The only quote I got on that was from the company that hauls the Mobile Mini containers. Not sure their drivers will be able to negotiate a trailer through a tight space. Still gotta get a quote on the tandem axle flat bed wrecker.

                  The last time I had one moved it was $400 for around 100 miles.

                    I found a 27ft demo'ed camper frame off craigslist for $750. Took it to the yard and picked up the container. Left it on so I can move it whenever I need to. I put a deck on the remaining 7ft for a front porch. I have pulled it on some sketchy lease roads, but made it without a hiccup.
                    Chained the front and back with binders and strapped the middle in 2-3 spots.

                    A flat bed trailer would be better, but all those were considerably more expensive when I was looking.
