How is this container delivered?
We want to make your container delivery on-site as smooth as possible. Please inform us when requesting a quote if there are any obstacles near your planned container location, such as power lines or if access for a truck might be difficult.
Also, make sure the area where the truck needs to drive is clear and that pets and children are safe.
Local delivery can be arranged in the following ways.
Tilting tray
Tilt tray delivers a container off the back of the truck. Similar to a tow truck, the tray is mechanically lowered at an angle, and the container is slid off, with the truck moving forward at slow speed. This is the most common delivery method used for containers. Tilt trays are not suitable for sites with overhead power lines as the container height increases significantly when tilted.
Hiab crane
Hiab cranes lift containers using a mechanism behind the truck cab. They are used when space is limited for a side loader or tipper body. Using a crane, the container can be easily positioned at an angle or on a raised surface. It can also be used to negotiate fences or other obstacles.
