Shipping Scenarios:

A 28 Ft. High Trailer can carry 24,000 Lbs and 2029 Cubic Ft.

A 45 Ft. Wedge Trailer can carry 45,000 Lbs and 3083 Cubic Ft.

A 48 Ft. Wedge Trailer can carry 45,000 Lbs and 3566 Cubic Ft.

There is no loading dock at our facility, although a fork lift may be able to be hired, unless trailer has a lift gate.

Shipping rates will require adjustments for loading and unloading services and mileage.

Best guess is load a 48 Ft. wedge trailer with as much as possible and you might make it under the limit of 45,000 lbs. It will be well under the 3566 CFt limit.

A self rental Uhaul would suffice to take the shelves and left over books.
