Standard trailer container delivery
A skeletal trailer is the lightest, cheapest way to move a full container load. Terminal to your door, with your equipment doing the lifting at the other end.
When this is the right choice
- Your site has a forklift, container handler, crane or loading dock.
- You are moving volume and cost per container matters most.
- The container is heavy enough to exceed a side loader limit.
- You are running regular import or export lanes on a schedule.
What we need from you
- Unloading equipment rated for the container weight, available at the delivery window.
- Truck access — a rigid path in and out for a 19 m combination, or notice if there is not.
- A nominated site contact for the driver.
- For exports: the packed weight, so the VGM declaration is right the first time.
The honest version
This is the workhorse. On a six-axle combination we run up to 43.5 t gross, covering effectively any legally packed 20' or 40' container. Because there is no lifting equipment on the trailer, the whole payload allowance goes to your freight rather than to hydraulics — which is exactly why it is the cheapest way to move a heavy box.
Best for: Sites with a forklift, crane or dock. Highest-volume, lowest-cost option.
If your site cannot unload, side loader delivery does the same job without any equipment at your end.
