Container shipment
Container shipment
(OP)
We use shipping containers (20ft and 40ft CCU) as stores for various projects without modifying the container structure. Sometime projects outlast the certification or there are no certifying bodies in the area. We would like to know if anyone has come across and solved similar problem of being able to lift and transport out-of-date CCU, preferably without emptying them, by using for example some kind of frame that can be moved from CCU to CCU and which is certifiable?
I am not sure that this is most appropriate group, but which is? Any advice or useful comments will be appreciated.
Sincerely,
St+

RE: Container shipment
Some are designed to be forked from underneath, while others do not have fork lanes at all, but are lifted from the corners by a lifting frame.
Is the mechanical integrity of the chassis of the CCU still there, or is it all rotted or rusted out, and the walls all banged up?? A lot of the mechanical strength of the CCU is in the walls and floors.
While I have never thought of it, I doubt that CCU's are designed to be sling lifted from the corners. But this is only a guess on my part.

RE: Container shipment
Mechanical integrity of CCU still good.
