Standard Container deliveries – by skeletal trailers:

This is most common delivery method for handling the delivery of shipping containers for loading or unloading. Container will arrive on the back of the trailer. Unloading can either be handled using loading bays or a ramp at the site, or unloading at height from the trailer.

Sidelifter container deliveries:

Not every site has the equipment or facilities for handling the unloading of cargo from a container at trailer height. That's where specialist Sidelifter transport solutions can make a real difference.

A Sidelifter is a purpose-built trailer equipped with lifting cranes that allow shipping containers to be lifted to and from the ground. This provides a practical and flexible solution for customers who need containers delivered directly for unloading at ground level.

Our team can help assess your requirements and determine whether sidelifter transport is suitable for your site.

Specialist Container Movements:

For containers with unusual weights, dimensions or handling requirements, our team can assess the movement and explore appropriate specialist transport solutions.

Low Loader & Specialist Heavy Haulage

Transport Solutions for Oversized and Heavy Cargo - for machinery, oversized equipment and cargo that cannot be transported using conventional trailers, specialist low loader and heavy haulage solutions may be required.

These transport options are designed to accommodate large, heavy or unusually shaped loads.

Ideal for:

Construction machinery
Agricultural equipment
Industrial machinery
Heavy engineering components
Oversized and Out of Gauge cargo
Specialist project movements

Connecting UK Road Transport with Global Shipping

At CS Shipping, we understand that international shipping doesn't begin or end at the port.

Reliable inland transport is essential to ensuring containers move efficiently between shipping terminals, warehouses, distribution centres and final destinations.

By coordinating UK container haulage alongside our international ocean freight services, we can help simplify the logistics process for customers importing and exporting goods.

Whether you're arranging a full container load from overseas or preparing an export shipment, our team can help coordinate the road transport element of your journey.

Our aim is to provide a straightforward service that connects the different stages of your supply chain. We understand that every container movement matters, whether it's part of a time-sensitive international shipment, a regular supply chain operation or a one-off specialist delivery. With flexible transport solutions, specialist handling options and a commitment to personal service, we aim to make UK container transport straightforward and efficient.
