The Container Delivery Process in Shrewsbury

Delivering a shipping container requires specialised equipment and expertise. Our process ensures your container arrives safely and is positioned accurately on your site.

Site Assessment and Planning

Before delivery, our logistics team conducts a thorough site assessment. This includes evaluating access routes, turning circles, overhead obstructions (such as cables or trees), and ground stability at the intended delivery location. This proactive step identifies potential challenges and allows us to plan the safest and most efficient delivery strategy.

We coordinate with local authorities and stakeholders as necessary to ensure all permissions and considerations for vehicle access and placement are addressed. This meticulous planning phase minimises unexpected issues on delivery day.

Specialised Transport Vehicles

We utilise a fleet of vehicles specifically equipped for container transport and delivery. This includes:

• Articulated Lorries: Standard transport for containers to the general vicinity of your site.
• Hiab Vehicles: Equipped with a crane (Hiab) mounted behind the cab, these vehicles provide the capability to lift and position the container precisely without requiring separate lifting equipment on site. This is our preferred method for delivering and placing containers in most business environments. Find out more about Hiab Delivery Shrewsbury.

The choice of vehicle depends on site access, the required lifting capacity, and the final positioning needs.

On-Site Placement and Safety

Upon arrival, our experienced delivery team executes the planned placement strategy. Using the Hiab crane, they carefully lift the container from the vehicle and manoeuvre it into the designated location.

Safety protocols remain paramount throughout the process. Our operators are fully trained and adhere to strict safety guidelines, conducting final risk assessments on site before commencing the lift. Clear communication between the operator and your on-site personnel ensures the container is positioned correctly and safely.

We require the delivery site to be level, clear of obstructions, and capable of supporting the weight of the delivery vehicle and the container. Proper site preparation by the client is crucial for a smooth and safe delivery.
