The use of sea containers is not limited to the carriage of goods in them only across the sea. They can be loaded onto railway platforms and special car trailers without any problems. Ease of use, and most importantly, the guaranteed safety of cargo transported in containers makes them increasingly in demand among entrepreneurs of all levels.
Liability for damage to the container
Despite the strength and reliability of the metal structure of the sea container, problems with its damage (breakage) are not considered a rarity. You can solve the problem with the help of accessories and spare parts. In addition to door fittings, during the operation of sea containers, side walls container sheets and container roofs are also subject to serious impact ... Basically, damage occurs as a result of:
- Incorrect packing, loading of the container capacity itself - a significant overload, exceeding the permissible norms, uneven distribution of the cargo over its area.
- Human factor (crane operator error) when loading the container itself onto a vehicle (falling, overturning, impact).
- Lack of necessary fastening of the container using special devices on the vehicle.
- Violation of storage rules (placing containers on top of each other with an excess of the permissible quantity).
According to accepted international standards, the shipper is responsible for a damaged container during loading and installation on a vehicle. In case of problems along the way - the carrier (logistics company). For breakdowns at unloading and storage - the consignee.
You can solve problems with self-repair of a damaged sea container and avoid large penalties (stipulated in the freight agreement) from its owner with the help of a supplier of components and spare parts for them to the domestic market.
