Default Shipping containers?

Does anyone know of a company that rents containers to pack your material in and ship it to Alaska? Something like they drop it off at your house and you pack it up call them when you are done packing and they ship it to Alaska.

Would it seem unreasonable to find they wouldn't move your belongings to Alaska?

I suppose it would... but I have already spoken with them and recieved multiple quotes for the move, depending on how much I decide to take with us. So I still find them reasonable.

Then they should probably update their web site, it says contiguous US.

I had checked into their rate this past spring, they would move items from Alaska to outside and they were reasonable but they don't have a ramp on their trucks makes moving heavy items almost impossible. I did get other quotes they would quote the rate for the weight bu when they found out it was either to Alaska or out of Alaska they declined to bid.
