These skates are however ideal for any operation where you may wish to move shipping containers around on a regular basis without the need for large forklifts or mobile hiab crane vehicles. This will typically be a lot cheaper than buying your own set of skates and will come with all risk assessments, supervisors and insurance in place.

If you need a container skating into position as a one off job, please contact us as most of our hauliers can offer a skating service at additional cost. We do get customers who also need a shipping container delivered inside a barn or hangar but our trucks cannot get through! The skates are a perfect solution, our delivery drivers can lift the container into the air, you can then fit the skates and lock them into place, from there you can push the container through the hangar doors and into a suitable position.ĭelivery cost does depend on your location, so please get in touch with the team and they will be able to quote accordingly. The wheels themselves only have a few mm clearance even if they are 30cm in diameter. these are not suitable for use on any loose ground (eg gravel) and they will not cope with big divots, potholes, curbs or steps in a concrete or tarmac surface. Please be advised these only work on a very smooth surface. Care of this capacity they are generally not suitable for moving loaded shipping containers whcih can weight in up to 30 tonnes. With a 1.5 tonne capacity per wheel these skates can move an empty container of any size around a yard or warehouse environment. You may need a jack or similar to jack the container up to allow you to slot these into the corner casting. These skates simply plug into the corner castings on a shipping container. The skates allow shipping containers to be moved around site with relative ease and avoids the cost of getting a haulier in to do a site move! All they need is hard standing and smooth ground to operate on and they can be pushed into position. Mush as they sound they are effectively a big set of industrial roller skates for a shipping container, which can allow you to skate a container into an otherwise difficult to reach location, eg inside buildings or warehouses, or underneath cables or branches (which would otherwise interfere with our cranes)
