Back when I used to do a lot of import / export some of the freight forwarders had crews who would do such things.

You'd want to supervise or have someone do so of course. But maybe reach out to your freight forwarder for suggestions? If its a decent sized port you might have some luck.

I was doing it out of Long Beach CA in the 90's and there were a number of rigging crew options back then. And cheap enough that we stopped doing it ourselves.

Good luck.
