We sort the truck. You sort the ground.

Freight is quoted with the container, organised by us, and run by operators we use every week — tilt-tray for most 10s and 20s, sidelifter for 40s, crane truck when access says so. In this region the deciding factor usually isn't the truck. It's whether the ground will hold it.

• Tilt-tray wants about 3.5m of width and 20m of straight run-up
• Sidelifters place 40-footers beside the truck — allow around 30m of working room
• Crane (HIAB) lifts go over fences and into tight blocks; dearer, but very little is impossible
• Firm ground matters most. Freshly graded, irrigated or post-rain pads bog trucks — talk to us about timing in the wet
• Blocks, sleepers or pavers under the four corner castings is the right set-down, every time
