next load of servers in Nashville. help!

next load of servers from this lot are in Nashville. 5 pallets plus two racks with servers about 15,000 lbs oo far for me to go. must be loaded from a dock. we must provide a bill of lading..

I can meet in Nashville and provide secret clearence needed along with other necessary paperwork.

this is part of a potential 400,000 lb group. first load scheduled for sept 19 or Oct 1

any Ideas ?



P.S. these are mostly 3 to 4 year old working servers just out of warrenty military grade GSA approved. more details in private conversation only.

the servers are paid for. im looking for transport or ?

old dude why not contract with a trucking company to pick them up and bring them to you?

that is an option, but Im looking for a better one, a win win so to speak. after paying for the servers it dosn't leave me much cash to work with. we are still hauling from the other location, but Nashville is a bit far for our equipment.

Can mikeinreco help you out beings he's from Tenn? He definitely knows computers.

Why not contract with one of those Less Freight or whatever companies? Or hell, try uship if nothing else.

I would help if I was there, but that is several states away.

Check on CL to see if anyone with a decent size trailer is coming your way from there.

I offered to help you before Olddude and the offer still stands..............Let me know you can PM me it's a easy drive to Nashville or you getting them from Clarksville??? ....I know you said they were military? There is a military base there.........I have a full size f150 and 20 foot flatbed trailer and I know the Nashville area as I ran a salvage company there for bout 4 years

I could even buy them from you........Not sure what you paid for em but I could do sumthin.......LOL PM me if needed

The 15,000 lbs might be a little much for me in one trip but I am always willing to help out a forum member ask around I have driven all over Tennessee picking stuff up.......LOL

I am going to be In St Louis MO that week I could rent a truck go get them and bring them back to St Louis with me. You notice I never said I would buy them I have no idea what you paid but I am pretty sure I do not have the cash laying around to buy 15,000 lbs of computers.

That's the thing I do have the cash "laying around".....LOL
