Load at your own pace A shipping container can be lowered to the ground and left on site. Once it is full and ready for shipping a vehicle can return to your site deliver a fresh empty container, collect the full box and deliver it to the quay. Loading the shipping container at your own pace, avoids disruption to your operations and the need to hire additional staff to assist with loading. The cargo can be packed into the container more efficiently thus preventing possible damage during shipping. No need for loading facilities With a container delivered to the ground there is no need for costly ramps or loading dock levelling facilities. Avoid vehicle waiting charges Vehicles kept waiting onsite quickly accrue demurrage charges if kept while being loaded or unloaded. Our self-loading vehicles can deliver the shipping container to the customers’ premises, lower it to the ground and return at a later time once the container is ready for collection. No restrictions A facility that has three loading bays can handle three containers and no more. With shipping containers delivered to the ground the only limitation is the amount of space available. Improved Health & Safety Loading at ground level greatly reduces the risk of injury to personnel and the risk of damage to the freight. This is particularly important when handling heavy, awkward or valuable cargo. Security A container sitting on a dropped out trailer is easily stolen. A container sitting on the ground is far more secure. |
