Site Condition/Access Guide

Help us to help you by following these DO's and DONT's for a smooth delivery.

Do tell us if the containers will need to be lifted over walls, fences, buildings, obstructions or other containers, as this will require an independent crane.

Do tell us if you want containers placed inside a building as access and height clearance restrictions apply.

Do ensure the area is level and has hard standing capacity. If ground is soft or uneven, we may be able to provide sleepers as a base, but you need to inform us in advance.

Do allow three clear metres of space at the machinery end of temperature-controlled units. This is necessary to avoid blocking airflow and to enable the engineer to service the equipment.

Dont choose a location that blocks drain or fire exits. If units need to be repositioned after delivery, there will be an extra charge.

Dont locate a temperature controlled unit more than 10 metres from the power supply. We can supply extra cable but this will be charged.

Dont wait until after the driver leaves to check that delivery is to your satisfaction. He/she will require a signature to confirm that the unit is in the correct position, the doors operate correctly, locks work (if supplied) and there are no defects with the equipment. A method Statement can be supplied prior to delivery, if required.

If you are unsure about any of these points, we can also offer a site inspection service to assess your delivery needs.
