Transferring 20' Containers to and from 20' Trailers or 40' Containers to and from 40' Trailers
Follow the loading to and from the ground procedure except:
Park the two vehicles approx 1 metre apart, with twistlocks aligned
Place one stabiliser leg on the ground as far as possible under the rear of the companion truck.
Place the other stabiliser leg on the ground under the tractor unit chassis, if it can be placed there fully extended without obstruction. If not, jack-knife the companion tractor unit to 45 degrees enabling the stabiliser leg to be placed on the ground fully extended in front of the companion trailer
Always ensure the twistlocks on both vehicles are unlocked before commencing transfers.
