Hello again,

Just a quick question to which hopefully someone will know the answer...........

Our company is relocating one of our appliance manufacturing facilities from Brisbane (Australia) to Northern Ohio, USA.

My problem is that I have been unable to locate a bulk freight company who can transport containers of raw polymer.
The company we use here in Brisbane has purpose built trailers which can 'blow' the container contents into the silo and also tilt the container to completely empty out the contents.
Also here we use a 4" CamLock fitting to connect the trailer's blower unit to the silo fill pipe. I dont know what fitting is standard for this purpose in the U.S.

Can anyone fill me in on what people do for bulk deliveries in the U.S.?

Try Hoffmann Transport and Grant Haulage . They have hauled resin before they should be able to help.

Cheers
