Container Trucks

When choosing a container system for your trucks, it is important to pay attention to a number of points. First of all, which system is suitable for your tractors. Also, the size of the containers you use and how the transshipment is arranged is important in making your choice.

5 options for a truck container system

In order to determine which container system is the most suitable for your logistic process, you will find a brief overview of the options offered by advertisers on Trucks.nl:

• Chain system
  A chain runs from the rear of the truck to just in front of the cabin. Combined with a claw, the driver can automatically couple a container from the cabin.
• Side loader
  With a side loader you save even more time because the truck simply comes to a stop next to the container and can load the container from the side. Because there is nothing in front of or behind the lorry, this is one of the fastest container systems.
• Hookloaders
  A hydraulically or pneumatically driven hook arm hooks up to the front and top of the container and pulls it up the ramp, as it were. Because the arm can also move up and down, you can easily tip a container off the rack.
• Skiploader system
  A container system that mainly benefits the reach and stability of trucks. This type is often used by waste collection and cleaning companies.
• Cable system
  A cable system is somewhat lighter than most other container systems. The advantage of this is that it gives you a higher loading capacity.
