Why Loading Matters
When your telehandler is shipped in a container, it will travel thousands of kilometers and be exposed to constant vibration and movement during sea transport.
This means the way the machine is loaded and secured directly affects its condition when it arrives.
If loading is not handled properly, even small shifts inside the container can lead to surface damage, component stress, or additional checks and adjustments after unloading — delaying commissioning and increasing unexpected work on site.
Safe Arrival
Professional Loading
A well-planned container loading process helps ensure that your telehandler arrives in good condition, properly protected, and ready for operation when it reaches your job site.
Loading Process
From preparation to final check, our systematic loading process ensures your telehandler is safely positioned and ready for container transport.
Loading Preparation
Before loading begins, your telehandler is prepared and checked based on its configuration, weight, and dimensions. This step helps ensure the machine is ready for container transport and avoids unnecessary stress during loading and shipping.
Controlled Container Entry
When the telehandler enters the container, the process is handled slowly and in a controlled manner. This reduces the risk of contact with container walls and ensures the machine maintains the correct posture while moving inside.
Positioning Inside the Container
Once inside, your telehandler is positioned carefully to maintain balance during transportation. The placement takes into account weight distribution, axle position, and available clearance to improve stability throughout the journey.
Final Check Before Sealing
After positioning, a final inspection is carried out before the container is sealed. This ensures the telehandler is properly placed and ready for securing, helping prevent issues during long-distance transport.
Container Securing
Professional securing methods keep your telehandler stable and protected throughout the entire shipping journey.
Securing the Chassis and Axles
Your telehandler is secured at key structural points, such as the chassis and axles, to prevent movement during transportation. This helps keep the machine stable inside the container and reduces stress caused by vibration and shifting forces.
Wheel Blocking and Anti-Movement Measures
Wheel blocking is applied to limit rolling and maintain the telehandler's position throughout the journey. These measures work together with securing points to ensure the machine remains in place under changing transport conditions.
Balanced Securing for Long-Distance Transport
Securing methods are applied evenly to maintain balance without overloading individual components. This balanced approach helps protect the structure of your telehandler during long-distance sea transport.
Proper loading and securing is not just about protecting the machine — it's about ensuring your telehandler arrives ready to work, without delays or unexpected issues on site.

In addition to proper positioning and securing, protective measures are applied to help safeguard your telehandler during long-distance transport.
Key areas are protected to reduce the risk of surface damage, moisture exposure, and wear caused by vibration throughout the journey.
These protection measures help ensure your telehandler arrives in good condition and requires minimal preparation before being put into service.
Container Options
We select the most suitable container type based on telehandler dimensions and your logistics requirements.
40HQ Container
StandardMost telehandlers are loaded in 40HQ containers, which provide sufficient height and space for safe positioning, securing, and protection during long-distance transport.
This is the standard and recommended option for medium and high-reach telehandlers.
20GP Container
Cost-SavingFor more compact telehandlers, 20GP containers are available as an alternative shipping option. The following models can be loaded into a 20GP container when required:
This option can help optimize shipping costs depending on destination and logistics requirements.
Container Selection Based on Model & Shipping Plan
Container selection is determined by the telehandler model, dimensions, weight, and your shipping plan. Before loading, the appropriate container type is confirmed to ensure safe transport and efficient use of container space.
Direct Road Transport from China Factory
For customers in Central Asian countries, we offer road transportation as a practical and efficient delivery solution. Telehandlers can be transported directly by truck from our factory, reducing transit time and simplifying logistics arrangements.
Efficient & Flexible Delivery
Road transport allows for flexible scheduling, direct delivery, and easier coordination, especially for inland destinations. This option helps your telehandler arrive closer to the job site without additional port handling.
Factory to Site
We support your telehandler delivery from shipment to final destination.
Documentation & Shipment
After your telehandler is shipped, you are kept informed about its progress.
Export documents for customs clearance, including the bill of lading, packing list, and commercial invoice, are prepared and sent to you by courier or released electronically when applicable.
Tracking & Customs
Once the vessel departs, the shipping route is tracked so you can receive updates on the transportation status and estimated arrival.
At the destination, your local customs broker or logistics partner can assist with clearance and onward transportation arrangements.
