EZY Wheels
Can the EZY Wheels be used on the Highway?
- NO! NO! NO!
- They are not made for highway use. They are made for off road only and slow speeds.
What finish are the EZY Wheels?
Nickel Chrome Finish
Are EZY Wheels made in the USA?
Yes! We do not outsource the builds of our EZY Wheels. They are made in Wonderful Washington, Missouri. We use only USA Steel. Many of the machines that we use to build our products come from Washington, Missouri. We do source our hubs from overseas.
Can EZY Wheels be put on the door end of the container and the opposite end of the container?
Absolutely. This is a great way to move your container side to side or in its own tracks. On the non-door side of the container they install the exact way they do on the sides. On the door-end of the container, we suggest to put a 2x4 between the EZY Wheel and the container, this insures that the wheels stay vertical and protects your doors.
What is the difference between the 6 Lug and 8 Lug EZY Wheels?
- They are rated the same! The reason for the two difference sizes are for wheel and tire availability. We love to save you money, so if you want to use your own wheels and tires.
- Size for 8 Lug are 8x6.5 (many old truck wheels and tires work, check before purchasing)
- Size for 6 Lug are 6x5.5 (this is a standard chevy half ton truck size, in some cases the center hole may be too small. It need 3.5 inches center hole - we recommend buying the EZY Wheels before you purchase used wheels and tires from another source.)

Can I move a full shipping container?
EZY Wheels are designed to move 8800 pounds per end of container. So they would work on a container weighing less than 17,600 pounds total weight, if the weight is evenly distributed. We do recommend leaving your container as empty as possible. A lot of equipment will not lift the other end of the container with that weight added, which would make it hard to move the container.

Answer text
How much does it cost to ship?
Shipping is free is the lower 48 states.
How high does the container sit when EZY Wheels are put on?
On average ground clearance is 12”. You can adjust this by your tire size. If you need maximum ground clearance, old tall mud truck tires work great. This also helps on soft ground, as a shipping container is super heavy.
Are your EZY Wheels painted or powder coated?
No, from our experience paint and powder coat chip and do not withstand the tough conditions that they are designed to work in.
Do you have a warranty?
- Yes, this is my personal cell phone number, give me a call and I will personally take care of the situation.

How far do the EZY Wheels stick out from the container?

Why do I need ratchet straps?
